A B-Movie wrapped in an A-Movie package. But at least mildly entertaining.

Several stars. Good reviews on IMDB. Terrible acting. Only thing worse was the actual movie.
4. Barely Legal (2003)
R | 90 min | Comedy
Three high school guys attempt to make a porno movie.
Director: David Mickey Evans | Stars: Erik von Detten, Tony Denman, Daniel Farber, Sarah-Jane Potts
Votes: 6,358 | Gross: $0.03M
Would not expect much based on the cover alone. But this movie has one successful actress in Amy Smart. So I would have hoped it would have at least beaten out a Paris Hilton movie.
5. Bottoms Up (2006 Video)
R | 89 min | Comedy, Romance
A Midwestern bartender ingratiates himself into the Hollywood system, finding love along the way.

Nothing redeeming here. Next...

Votes: 4,083 | Gross: $7.12M
Classic 1980s teen sex film. Amazing that NONE of the actors became big after this, just amazing.
7. Dorm Daze (2003)
R | 96 min | Comedy, Crime, Mystery
Set during a crazy afternoon in the lives of a dozen college students at a co-ed dorm that starts with the arrival of two very different women with the same name of Dominique.

Votes: 8,207 | Gross: $0.06M
Another National Lampoon movie. Shocking. I wonder if they even audition actors, or do they just have there friends act out the roles.
8. Gigli (2003)
R | 121 min | Comedy, Crime, Romance
Larry Gigli is assigned by a crime boss to kidnap the brother of a prominent district attorney. A beautiful woman known only as Ricki is sent to stay with him to make sure he doesn't mess up the job.

Votes: 50,721 | Gross: $6.07M
Everyone said it was bad. The movie itself wasn't good, but the acting was significantly worse.
9. The Big Hit (1998)
R | 91 min | Action, Comedy, Crime
Socially anxious hitman Melvin Smiley, an expert in his lucrative field, goes on a job and falls in love with his kidnapping victim, turning his world upside down.

Votes: 31,525 | Gross: $27.05M
Mark Wahlberg is really good in this movie. You can start to see what type of actor he will later become. After that the drop off is steep to put it mildly.
10. Point Break (1991)
R | 122 min | Action, Crime, Thriller
An F.B.I. Agent goes undercover to catch a gang of surfers who may be bank robbers.
Director: Kathryn Bigelow | Stars: Patrick Swayze, Keanu Reeves, Gary Busey, Lori Petty
Votes: 202,409 | Gross: $43.22M
Fun movie, but put Keanu Reeves and Gary Busey in a film together and expect nothing less than the Top 10.
