Worst British Filum of all time ?

[redsquirrel]

Shakespeare in Love.

Horrible, smug, thespy, heritage vomit cinema.

While it's not bad in the same way as many of those mentioned on this thread Love Actually has to win/lose the most smug category. Awful shite.

Maybe not the worst but I do remember thinking this was pretty awful:

And we might as well include Notting Hill and anything else by Richard Curtis while we're at it.

Whilst it is by no means a great film, nor a particularly good one, it is clearly not, in the grand scheme of things, of the unfathomable depths of the likes of Kung Fu Flid - it's simply an underdeveloped mediocrity, much like - for instance - G:MT Greenwich Mean Time or Sorted or This Year's Love.

 

[vauxhallmum]

Was Mamma Mia a British Film? Either way it was fucking terrible. Even Julie Walters looked ashamed

 

[Reno]

Now we have clearly landed on the "overrated" rather than "worst" page.

 

[albionism]

Absolute bollocks

This Year's Love was kinda sweet in its own way.

Has Jennifer Ehle in it so not a total wash out, but pretty crap

Dire ... all the nastiest gangsta cliches welded (more like randomly tossed) together and marinated in horrible, with a thick gooey topping of sexism. in a film that's meant to be about women. also terrible, terrible dialogue and continuity. <shudders in memory>

Did somebody call for a video about a successful gritty urban musical artiste & actor making a bit of a prat of themselves whilst promoting another by-the-numbers 'hood film'?

The recent 'Sweeney'. Truly fucking shocking on so so many levels.

Made the two Sweeney films from the '70s look like classics.....

 

[Farmer Giles]

They shot some scenes for this crock at my mates house in Raynes Park. Fuck knows why they picked his gaff for shooting.

large rooms, easy parking, appropriate decor and the person who lives there letting them do it.

I've filmed on location. Something always gets trashed in the poor fucker's house. We shot in the garden of a house on the Isle of Man once, in the rain, and the garden was like the somme by the time we'd done. Not a blade of grass left. Grinder had a music video filmed in his houseshare, not long after we met - and they managed to melt a swastika-shaped mark in the new carpet with the base of one of the lamps. The money's ok - but if I lived anywhere nice i'd say no.

The first one's a solid thriller, though Barry Foster's Yank accent is a bit gratey. The second one starts off well, sustains an interesting tone, interesting themes, but the pay-off is silly and anti-climactic. And the original Armchair Theatre pilot is solid.

Actually both are quite watchable in a pass the time sorta way,the new version is an unmitaged pile of shite,Winstone with his tiresome cocknee hardman act and Plan B with all the screen presence of water...

Two from me

sub par gangster flick that Danny Dyer wouldn't grace.

And http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hippie_Hippie_Shake Which is so bad it's never been released.

 

[miniGMgoit]

Gnaw

 

[Orang Utan]

Love, Honor & Obey
tis a litmus test for good taste.
if you like it, i can now dismiss your opinion as worthless

 

[RaverDrew]

Just wtf was Ray Liotta thinking ???

This scene will haunt me forever



Possibly the worst film, and most pretentious pile of faux intellectual bullshit I've EVER seen.

 

[DJ Squelch]

I love the old Carry On films but this horrible attempt to revive it in 1992 was bloody awful.

[Ranbay]
