10 of the Worst: Films of 2017

What if the bad guys hijacked the weather?
This is the premise of the latest garbage release from actor-producer Gerard Butler, a man who seems insistent upon force feeding us the same poor quality types of film we always think he’ll somehow move past. How much more good grace can a career defining performance in 300 hold?
1. Fifty Shades Darker
So many people went to see the insultingly bad first Fifty Shades movie that the cast were contractually obligated to return to the franchise for its sequel. Even under a new director – one with Glengarry Glen Ross under his belt – lead stars Jamie Dornan and Dakota Johnson were unable to capture anything even closely resembling sexual chemistry, leaving the woeful content of the screenplay to speak for itself. No-one wanted to be there and that much was clear. Fifty Shades Darker is the worst film of 2017.

I actually didn’t hate Justice League as much as I thought I would, probably because Wonder Woman just makes everything better…
That’s understandable as she is excellent in all of the ways. I didn’t like them using her entire backstory as a lame attempt to hype their villain (whomever he was… I’ve forgotten already he was that forgettable), though.
