Posted Oct 6, 2007
34/100 —— My Bad Dad (2007) " The biggest problem with this film is that Mack Polhemus lined up members of his family to play most of the key roles. And, frankly, they can't act." — Apollo Guide

34/100 49% Jackass - The Movie (2002) " This isn't a movie; it's a symptom." — Apollo Guide

37/100 13% Whipped (1999) " If you're looking for a biting satire and smart commentary on male sexual misadventure, steer away from this movie." — Apollo Guide
Posted Jul 24, 2001
37/100 12% Office Killer (1997) " The measure of this film's failure is that when the nasty stuff happens, we don't laugh and we really don't care." — Apollo Guide
Posted Jan 1, 2000
38/100 41% The House Bunny (2008) " The disc's extras include far too many featurettes (a dozen in total), ten deleted scenes, a music video and a bucket-load of trailers for other movies." — Apollo Guide
Posted Dec 14, 2008
38/100 41% The House Bunny (2008) " Not funny, not sexy, not even obnoxious enough to get anyone worked up, The House Bunny truly establishes a new low water mark for 2008 cinema." — Apollo Guide

Posted Jan 1, 2000
38/100 2% Baby Geniuses (1999) " The film is short -- so short that they tacked a sentimental little music video on the end and still it finishes in plenty of time for you to go find a real baby and appreciate the far more entertaining and exciting reality of babyhood." — Apollo Guide
Posted Jan 1, 2000
39/100 14% I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry (2007) " The worst thing about this DVD is that there are a lot of extras. The best thing is that they're mostly at least quite brief." — Apollo Guide
Posted Nov 20, 2007
39/100 14% I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry (2007) " You don't even need to find this movie offensive to hate it. You just need to stay awake long enough to notice that it's not funny." — Apollo Guide
Posted Jul 23, 2007
39/100 —— The Bad Girls From Valley High (2005) " The most remarkable thing about this DVD is that it includes any special features at all - in this case, one: deleted scenes that prove the movie could have been even worse." — Apollo Guide
Posted Apr 1, 2005
39/100 —— The Bad Girls From Valley High (2005) " Glaring continuity errors, slipshod makeup, awful costumes, half-hearted performances, a tired concept and absolutely zero inspiration. Stunningly bad." — Apollo Guide
Posted Apr 1, 2005
39/100 22% Torque (2004) " There is so much style, complete with irritatingly constant ultra-close-ups, and so little substance, that it's hard to imagine even 16-year-olds coming away satisfied." — Apollo Guide
Posted Jan 15, 2004
39/100 8% Grind (2003) " Sitting through this shoddy, boring production is most certainly a grind." — Apollo Guide
Posted Aug 14, 2003
39/100 8% Kangaroo Jack (2003) " One of the most ill-thought-out cinematic exercises in a very, very long time." — Apollo Guide
Posted Jan 15, 2003

Posted Jul 24, 2001

Posted Jan 1, 2000
39/100 22% 8MM (1999) " The premise is interesting, although disturbing, but the film strikes out on three pitches." — Apollo Guide
