    I voted but the results are ridiculous. Hugo beating Fast Five and Drive beating Cabin in the Woods. Just no.
    But... those are the better movies

    Hugo might be the worst movie of the decade. Should we make a worst movie of the decade thread?

    Yeah, but "worst" is some damn strong language.

    Well out of the 109 movies I've seen from 2011, I've seen only 7 films worse than Hugo. That's in the 95 percentile of bad. Take the top 5 percent of terrible movies in the decade, and Hugo would surely be on my list. So "worst" is very apt.

    I love Hugo. I would rank it above Fast Five any day... you know, if they were comparable in any way.

    I love Hugo as well. Marty riffing on Spielberg and beating him at his game in many ways. I also like it when he gets away from crime dramas (as much as I like many of them).

    I manage to avoid most of the truly wretched movies, so my lower ratings don't get used that often. But here's the worst things I saw this decade, year by year:

    2010: Alice in Wonderland
    2011: The Muppets
    2012: The Hunger Games
    2013: This is the End
    2014: Lava
    2015: The Witch
    2016: The Belko Experiment
    2017: King Arthur: Legend of the Sword
    2018: Early Man (this one's not all that bad, just managed to avoid most of the bad stuff last year)
    Coming to America (Landis, 1988) **
    The Beach Bum (Korine, 2019) *1/2
    Us (Peele, 2019) ***1/2
    Fugue (Smoczynska, 2018) ***1/2
    Prisoners (Villeneuve, 2013) ***1/2
    Shadow (Zhang, 2018) ***
    Oslo, August 31st (J. Trier, 2011) ****
    Climax (Noé, 2018) **1/2
    Fighting With My Family (Merchant, 2019) **
    Upstream Color (Carruth, 2013) ***

    According to letterboxd I gave 1 star to:

    Man of Steel
    Ghostbusters (2016)
    Suspiria (2018) (to be fair, I think I gave this one star because it seems like less of an insult than giving it 2 stars or 3 stars)
    Green Book
    The Help
    Kick-Ass
    Attack the Block
    Trainwreck
    The Fault in Our Stars
    Cosmopolis
    The Future
    Lola Versus
    Wanderlust
    No Strings Attached

    Some of these I barely remember. I'm pretty sure I watched Wanderlust in the theater around 2011, and apparently I hated it, but I seriously can't remember much about it.

    When I was ranking all the 2018 movies, Suspiria would have been lumped in with mediocrities like The Predator if I gave it two stars, so giving it one star seems more affectionate. I have a massive amount of problems with Suspiria but at least it is SOMETHING and nothing if not ambitious. Also that first pretzel/dance kill is one of the best scenes of last year and would work as a killer(har har) short film.

    I gave my lowest rating of the decade to Tyrannosaur, which I don't remember seeing at all, but it sounds like the kind of thing I would hate from the plot description and yet it does have generally good reviews.

    I watch a lot of bad horror- so the years where bad horror makes the worst of the year, I have the non-horror movie in parentheses.

    BTW, The Bye Bye Man might be the worst major motion film of the 21st century.

    2010 - The Last Airbender
    2011 - Cars 2
    2012 - Tape 407 (Spring Breakers)
    2013 - Identity Thief
    2014 - 300: Rise of an Empire
    2015 - The Lazarus Effect (Jurassic World)
    2016 - Ghostbusters
    2017 - The Bye Bye Man (A Bad Moms Christmas )
    2018 - The Hurricane Heist

    What We Do in the Shadows (transmogrifier)
    The Great Beauty (Grouchy)
    Cloud Atlas (Peng)
    A Separation (Mr. McGibbletts)
    The Immigrant (Pop Trash)
    Green Room (Dead and Messed Up)
    Upstream Color (Neclord)
    The Forbidden Room (baby doll)
    Oslo, August 31st (Ezee)
    Our Little Sister (Purple)
    The Lost City of Z (Watashi)
    Only Lovers Left Alive (dreamdead)
    I Saw the Devil (Duke)
    Prisoners (Ivan)

    Prisoners - I'm always a bit wary of films that use physical threats to children as their main source of emotional manipulation. On the other hand, this is a film that features the extended torture and beratement of Paul Dano, so that's positive. Although highly unpleasant a lot of the time, I have to concede that this is an engrossing thriller that earns its lengthy runtime. Jake Gyllenhaal is the one who really sells the movie for me, taking what could have been a cliched character and filling him with depth and authenticity. The tense car scene towards the end of the movie is both harrowing and beautiful.
