Worst Pixar sequel ever...
2. The Green Hornet (2011)
PG-13 | 119 min | Action, Comedy, Crime
Following the death of his father, Britt Reid, heir to his father's large company, teams up with his late dad's assistant Kato to become a masked crime fighting team.
Director: Michel Gondry | Stars: Seth Rogen, Jay Chou, Christoph Waltz, Cameron Diaz
Votes: 164,636 | Gross: $98.78M
The best thing about this movie was Christoph Waltz and Tom Wilkinson's performances. It was like they were both characters from a better movie that accidentally stumbled into this piece of tripe. Seth Rogen was absolutely horrible as Britt Reid, he was like a poor man's Tony Stark. And while the cocky, arrogant attitude works for Robert Downey, Jr. it just makes Rogen annoying and unlikeable.
3. Season of the Witch (2011)
PG-13 | 95 min | Action, Adventure, Fantasy
14th-century knights transport a suspected witch to a monastery, where monks deduce that her powers could be the source of the Black Plague.
Director: Dominic Sena | Stars: Nicolas Cage, Ron Perlman, Claire Foy, Stephen Campbell Moore
Votes: 98,219 | Gross: $24.83M
Another Nic Cage movie that sucked. I mean his career now has become a punch line. Are we really surprised?
4. Green Lantern (2011)
PG-13 | 114 min | Action, Adventure, Sci-Fi
Reckless test pilot Hal Jordan is granted an alien ring that bestows him with otherworldly powers that inducts him into an intergalactic police force, the Green Lantern Corps.
Director: Martin Campbell | Stars: Ryan Reynolds, Blake Lively, Peter Sarsgaard, Mark Strong
Votes: 295,977 | Gross: $116.60M
The most disappointing superheroe movie of 2011.
5. The Rite (2011)
PG-13 | 114 min | Drama, Horror, Mystery
American seminary student Michael Kovak travels to Italy to take an exorcism course.
Director: Mikael Håfström | Stars: Colin O'Donoghue, Anthony Hopkins, Ciarán Hinds, Alice Braga
Votes: 102,599 | Gross: $33.05M
Boring. Anthony Hopkins gives his most camp performance since The Wolfman.
6. The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 1 (2011)
PG-13 | 117 min | Adventure, Drama, Fantasy
The Quileutes close in on expecting parents Edward and Bella, whose unborn child poses a threat to the Wolf Pack and the towns people of Forks.
Director: Bill Condon | Stars: Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson, Taylor Lautner, Gil Birmingham
Votes: 254,141 | Gross: $281.29M
This franchise is so boring that honestly I'm looking forward to the last of these not because I'm excited to see the movie, no, because I just want this to end already. This movie though had one of the most unintentionally hilarious scenes in recent movie history so I guess it wasn't a complete waste of time.
7. Transformers: Dark of the Moon (2011)
PG-13 | 154 min | Action, Adventure, Sci-Fi
The Autobots learn of a Cybertronian spacecraft hidden on the moon, and race against the Decepticons to reach it and to learn its secrets.
Director: Michael Bay | Stars: Shia LaBeouf, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, Tyrese Gibson, Josh Duhamel
Votes: 431,735 | Gross: $352.39M
I like the first Transformers. It wasn't great, but it was an okay popcorn movie, then the second one came out and I detested it. I didn't really have much expectations coming into this movie, but I thought that they'd at least learned from their mistakes and would make at least a decent popcorn flick like the first one, but no that didn't happen. This movie still has offensive stereotypes that seem to be a staple in most Michael Bay movies, the humor was contrived and Shia LaBeouf's character couldn't be more worthless and useless than in the previous films. Also this movie was too long and needed more editing.
8. Spy Kids 4: All the Time in the World (2011)
PG | 89 min | Action, Adventure, Comedy
A retired spy is called back into action, and to bond with her new step-children, she invites them along for the adventure to stop the evil Timekeeper from taking over the world.

Director: Marcus Nispel | Stars: Jason Momoa, Ron Perlman, Rose McGowan, Stephen Lang
Votes: 102,684 | Gross: $21.30M
This movie seemed more like it was made for TV. I'm actually surprised it got theatrical release. Also Rose McGowan gives probably the worst performance of her career.
10. Sucker Punch (2011)
PG-13 | 110 min | Action, Adventure, Fantasy
A young girl institutionalized by her abusive stepfather retreats to an alternative reality as a coping strategy and envisions a plan to help her escape.
Director: Zack Snyder | Stars: Emily Browning, Vanessa Hudgens, Abbie Cornish, Jena Malone
Votes: 252,536 | Gross: $36.39M
A director's ego trip captured on film. Zack Snyder's first original work, consider his other stuff were adaptations of already existing material. And maybe that was for the best. This movie is all style no substance.
11. Beastly (2011)
PG-13 | 86 min | Drama, Fantasy, Romance

Votes: 534,004 | Gross: $254.46M
This movie is basically a remake of the first one, but were the first one pulled it off this one didn't.

Director: Dennis Dugan | Stars: Adam Sandler, Katie Holmes, Al Pacino, Elodie Tougne
Votes: 90,364 | Gross: $74.16M
The last of Adam Sandler's unfunny comedies of 2011 and definitely the worst.

PG-13 | 117 min | Comedy, Romance
On a weekend trip to Hawaii, a plastic surgeon convinces his loyal assistant to pose as his soon-to-be-divorced wife in order to cover up a careless lie he told to his much-younger girlfriend.
Director: Dennis Dugan | Stars: Adam Sandler, Jennifer Aniston, Brooklyn Decker, Nicole Kidman
Votes: 265,138 | Gross: $103.03M
Though not as bad as Jack and Jill. This movie is still pretty bad. 2011 has not been a good year for Adam Sandler.

Director: David Gordon Green | Stars: Jonah Hill, Ari Graynor, Sam Rockwell, Max Records
Votes: 72,645 | Gross: $30.54M

Director: Ron Howard | Stars: Vince Vaughn, Kevin James, Winona Ryder, Jennifer Connelly

Director: Christian E. Christiansen | Stars: Minka Kelly, Leighton Meester, Cam Gigandet, Aly Michalka
Votes: 41,320 | Gross: $37.30M
Single White Female did not need a crappy remake with two chicks that can't act their way out of paper bag.

Director: Scott Stewart | Stars: Paul Bettany, Cam Gigandet, Maggie Q, Karl Urban
Votes: 124,087 | Gross: $29.14M
This movie sucked. With crappy movies like Legion and Priest, why is Scott Stewart still getting work?

Director: John Singleton | Stars: Taylor Lautner, Lily Collins, Alfred Molina, Jake Andolina
Votes: 83,340 | Gross: $28.09M
Taylor Lautner is dreadful actor and the fact that a studio actually trusted him enough to be the leading man in an action movie really says something about the hollywood industry.

Director: Kelly Asbury | Stars: James McAvoy, Emily Blunt, Maggie Smith, Ashley Jensen
Votes: 59,614 | Gross: $99.97M
