My smokin' hot Puerto Rican girlfriend and I went to see "Top Gun: Maverick" last night. It was pretty good, although I think it could've benefited from a bit more flying and a bit less drama between characters, but that's me. If you like these kinds of flicks, or if you're a Tom Cruise fan, you should definitely go see it.
Anyway, as we're leaving the theater last night, I overheard someone say that they thought it was a bad movie; didn't hear why they thought that, though. That got me thinking about some really bad movies that we've seen. There are many, but these two could easily make it into the top 5:
The plot is simple enough: Four Canadian kids go off for a long weekend of camping. Along their drive they hit and kill a grizzly bear cub. Mama Bear is understandably tweaked by this and goes on a rampage. I don't know how this one didn't win an Oscar. The special effects alone, as with their depiction of blood during a bear attack scene, are movie magic:
The second one; oh, I'm saddened to think anyone would live their life without watching this one:
Again, a simple enough plot: A large fragment of a comet collides with earth, knocking Earth's magnetic poles 10° ff-kilter. Apparently, only one guy can rectify the problem, and he needs nuclear weapons to do it.
You can see where this one's going.
No screenshot from this one although, suffice it to say, the special effects were mind numbing. And the acting? Bitch, please. "Polar Storm" is surely destined to become the next "Gone With The Wind".
So, yeah, if you enjoy watching stunningly bad movies, give these a shot...
