Any movies that you thought would be great, only to let you down when you watched them.

For me:

The Dark Knight
Paranormal Activity
Brokeback Mountain
King Kong
2012
War Of The Worlds

[setanta]

Biggest movie going disappointment for me was probably Star Wars The Phantom Menace. I'm sure there's others but that's the first one that sprung to mind.

[BB_Eye]

I second you on the Dark Knight and War of the Worlds.

Children of Men turned out to be a heap of rubbish, especially after the glowing reviews
The Lives of Others wasn't all it was hyped up to be either
Hallam Foe fell massively short of its promising opening scenes
Casino Royale was really dull, despite Daniel Craig being a great Bond

[setanta]

Thought I was the only one that thought Casino Royale was no great shakes. Didn't do much for me at all.

I enjoyed the Phantom Menace, I believe it was down to the 15 year gap of Star Wars. It didn't last too long though, before I watched it the second time only to find out I was conned

Oh yes, Child of Men was a real let down. So much I had forgotten about it until now.

[InOne]

Donnie Brasco and The Untouchables.

[BB_Eye]

Oh... how could I forget Natural Born Killers? I'm a big Oliver Stone fan and never thought him capable making something that bad. It's like he forgot the meaning of the word 'subtlety'.

[Harry!]

Silence Of The Lambs - I expected more blood and violence.

[LaLaLand]

I agree with Casino Royale totally, Daniel Craig is a great Bond but the plot was very plain.

Oh yeah, Superman Returns was very disappointing, but I still think they should have allowed Singer to film a sequel.

The Simpsons Movie sucked so bad. I know a lot of people complain about the quality of the series these days, but there were less laughs in the entire feature length movie than in some of today's worst Simpsons episodes.

Just get Kevin Spacey to play Lex Luthor again and I'm happy.

Yeah I wasn't opposed to him coming back, I just found the movie very boring and lackluster.

Only funny part was Spider Pig and then they overdid it bringing it into some episodes, I brought my twin Nephews to see it and they were bored out of there heads.

Daybreakers
Bronson
2012
Inception (Note: I think it's a fantastic film, but severly overhyped, hence I was slightly disappointed that I didn't really agree with people throwing the "one of the best movies ever" line about)
No Country For Old Men
Paranormal Activity

[Simone.]

Avatar!
it's a movie about blue cats & it's really long!

[Shaun]

The last Indiana Jones one...I wasn't expecting too much but I wasn't expecting the equivalent of a miscarriage.

[Patrick]

If this is the best disaster movie ever, I would die if I saw the rest. *Facepalm*

It was horrible, All of the good parts of the trailer, rushed into one scene.
It was more about those ******ing fat Russian Drake and Josh wanna-be twins, than it was about the actual doomsday.

[setanta]

Yep, the last Indiana Jones and Avatar were horrendous.

[Beastie]

Open Water.

Fast Times at Ridgemont High > any John Hughes movie.

[setanta]

Crash. Absolute rubbish and how the hell did it win Best Picture?

[30stone]

I generally dont really dislike many movies i always find them pretty entertaining..

The two that ive seen recently that i thought were absolute crap though were..

Dragonball : Evolution - A dragonball z movie sounded amazing! it was piss poor and so cheap..


One of "the mummy" spin offs, it was released like 2009 i think..

And it was so so crap!
