Not in a theatre but 'Interstellar'....
Battlefield Earth
So very, very bad...but I still love it...
The Railway Man..... worth the time to have a look at set in the second world war at the fall of Saigon and follows on with the Thai Burma railway, Colin Firth and Nicole Kidman and a number of other actors well constructed story.
Ex Machina - I thought Ex Machina was a pile of pretentious shit that desperately wanted to 'look' like a Kubrick film but ended up taking over two hours to deliver ten minutes of dialogue about nothing. If you've seen Blade Runner where Harrison Ford interviews Sean Young then you've seen Ex Machina although they did more in five minutes with Blade Runner. The mysterious computer genius whose name isn't worth remembering does nothing but drink beer and look at closed circuit cams. For those who have seen the film and can't figure out who he reminded you of when you all went to the diner afterwards? Joe Pantoliano is who you couldn't think of. More like a Joe Pantoliano impersonator. Nothing happens for %90 of the film and then when something happens at the end it's difficult to care. As a movie I give it a 5 but because it takes itself too seriously I give it a 3.
I saw this yesterday but I must disagree with you when you say "As a movie I give it a 5 but because it takes itself too seriously I give it a 3" -this film is so truly bad I don't think it is even worth a 1. That doesn't make it the worst film ever made, but that is only because there are so many contenders for this dubious accolade. I could go into details, but this film is just not worth the effort it would take.Quote:

Rust & Bone
American Sniper (Clint Eastwood, 2014)
Eastwood's ability to make films that are free of padding and hysteria has enabled him to make a film about a sniper for the SEALS who served in Iraq that is, until the last part of the film free of any sense of national sentiment. The film is based on the real life story of Chris Kyle, but fails to show any real character development, as the man in the film is emotionally cold at the beginning and at the end of the film, and one gets the impression he stopped doing tours of Iraq more from tiredness than anything deeper. The premise of the film, from 9/11 you get regime change in Iraq in 2003 doesn't make sense as 9/11 was followed by the relentless bombing of Afghanistan and Iraq had nothing to do with 9/11. The fact that it doesn't matter all that much is due to the lack of any real plot or story, and I personally found myself indifferent to the whole thing, so it goes to the swap shop along with quite a lot of other dvd's I have wasted money on recently. Probably best for Eastwood to retire as he has nothing left to say.
Boy Meets Girl is a funny, tender, sex positive romantic comedy that explores what it means to be a real man or woman, and how important it is to live a courageous life not letting fear stand in the way of going after your dreams.
