Is "Nacho Libre" the worst movie ever?

[bif]

I thought it would be good for a least a couple of laughs. But it was a total piece of shite. We had to stop it after about 15 minutes. Ended up watching "Tucker" which we hadn't seen before. Excellent movie, I thought.

1. I don't know... the recent Batman thread reminded me of

Batman and Robin... I haven't seen Nacho Libre, but it's hard to imagine that it's worse than that piece of crap.

[poiuytsister]

2. In a word...yes

I made it 20 minutes in before I ran screaming from the room.

[Orrex]

3. Have you seen Tin Cup?

That one gets my vote. For the top ten worst, if not the actual worst.

The only people who like this film are:

1. Blinded by their mad love of golf
2. Blinded by their mad love of Costner, Marin, Johnson, and/or Russo
3. Just plain crazy

[pokerfan]

9. I thought Tin Cup was hysterical

I don't golf and think that Costner has only limited range as an actor. It's no Bull Durham but I thought it was funny. I've enjoyed most of Ron Shelton's films.

Roy: That'd make an issue out of something that's not an issue. Besides, I'm focused. I am! This is my quest! This is my stand for the guys who've had their fill of soulless robots like David Simms.
Romeo: Well, David Simms may be a "soulless robot", but he's a rich, happy, soulless robot... with a beautiful doctor lady girlfried. Besides, how's getting in the Open going to change what she thinks about you?
Roy: Well, it'll show her that I'm not who she thinks I am.
Romeo: But you are who she thinks you are!

(after Simms refuses to attempt a 250 yard shot over a water hazard)
Roy 'Tin Cup' McAvoy: Fifteen years on the tour an' you're still a fuckin' pussy.
Simms: Thirteen years on the driving range and you still think this game is about your testosterone count.

4. I decided it was a kids movie

and that made it much more watchable

[sarge43]

5. Until you've seen Battlefield Earth,

you have no baseline.

[Giant Robot]

6. Highlander 2: The Quickening.

Don't curse me for it. I am just the messenger.

[DarkTirade]

14. I think you win.

[Gidney N Cloyd]

7. Not unless Adam Sandler is in it.

[Bassic]

8. No.

The worst movie ever was Hollow Man.

[Orrex]

19. Well...

Did you see Hollow Man 2?

Even worse, if you can believe it.

[Bassic]

23. Most assuredly not.

The first one made me want to flail myself, so I don't think I could have handled the second one.

[harmonicon]

10. if you have to ask, you obviously never seen Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace

Tucker, on the other hand, is a great movie. I haven't seen it in years, but for some reason I loved it as a kid when it came out. I've probably watched it at least half a dozen times.

[Giant Robot]

11. At least Star Wars:TPM had lightsabers

:shrug:

[harmonicon]

12. light sabers that slashed and burned my childhood love of star wars

[Wheezy]

13. I liked it.

I watched it with my kids. We laughed. You definitely have to be in the right mood for it, though.

I never understood why people thought Zoolander was funny after I watched it the first time (only made it about 20 minutes into it -- thought it was horrible). But then I watched it a couple years later and I was in a goofy mood and I actually really liked it.

[Quantess]

15. I thought it was funny. (eom)

[KitchenWitch]

16. Deuce Bigelow, Male Gigolo

x(

[Radical Activist]

17. It had some funny parts.

Not great but I've seen much worse.

[jmowreader]

18. There's no way it could be the worst movie ever

That's because the Tom Cruise version of "War of the Worlds" sucks so bad, you can put a hose on it and use it to clean out the Repuke Party.

And you KNOW if a movie sucks bad enough to lift a 350-lb Republican, it really fucking sucks.

[Rabrrrrrr]

20. Dude, if you think that's the worst movie ever, you have to be less than 20 years old.

Because bad as it is, it is NOWHERE close to the worst film ever.

[AlCzervik]

21. Showgirls is the worst movie ever.

[jakefrep]

22. No - no movie was as bad as Encino Man.

Pauly Shore makes Jack Black look like Al Pacino.

[ProdigalJunkMail]

24. i'm gonna put it on the list...

but Ishtar still tops it...

sP

[mainegreen]

25. Actually, I think Ishtar has a bad rap.

It's not great, but it has a certain campy charm that lifts it well above the dregs of the worst.

[ProdigalJunkMail]

26. i just couldn't stand it...

painful...but i sat through it...which i admit i would not have done for the likes of nacho libre...

sP

[mainegreen]

27. It's nowhere near as awful as Last Tango in Paris. n/t

[SacredCow]

28. I haven't seen it, but....

could it be any worse than: Howard the Duck, Gigli, Stop or My Mom Will Shoot, Battlefield Earth, etc...?

[Bake]

29. Top this: Larry the Cable Guy: Health Inspector

Even my son, who likes almost anything, thought it sucked.

Bake

[Javaman]

30. no, "freddie got fingered" is the worst movie ever! nt

[CreekDog]

31. I have not seen it, but, yes. n/t

:boring:

[soleft]

32. Get that corn out of my face!

I really thought it was going to catch on.
