i can't stop an avalanche billy no one
is asking you to stop an avalanche what
are you even talking about
i just want you to want to survive one
with us pete
welcome to watch mojo and today we're
counting down our picks for the top 10
worst movies of 2020. you know what i do
need
i need a couple buckets of that gravy so
i can take a bath in it
so good delicious
and you two you sit there and you don't
talk and you take up space
well not you john p you've actually been
you've been terrific you've been very
kind where's my money
where's my money for this list we'll be
looking at films from a major studio or
featuring recognizable actors that were
released in 2020
and that were critically panned what
were your favorite and least favorite
films of 2020
let us know in the comments number 10
the jesus roles the coen brothers are
masters of quirky cinema
over their decades-long career they've
given us numerous unforgettable films
populated by unique
larger-than-life characters many fans
have long fantasized about catching up
with the dude
but the coen brothers don't do sequels
the jesus roles is a solid argument as
to why not
aren't you a little old to be stealing
cars
yeah i know pretty nice right too bad
you can afford it a spin-off from the
big lebowski
the jesus roles is written and directed
by john turturro
who also reprises the titular role of
jesus quintana
chill out woman we couldn't afford to
get pinched you ain't never been in a
joint the coen brothers involvement was
limited to giving terturo their blessing
in hindsight fans of the dude likely
wish they hadn't
jesus simply does not work as a
protagonist the whole thing feels
aimless and immature and
even with the short run time manages to
overstay its welcome
this is marie she's our girl
and now i'm yours too well the only
hitches
i can't come coffee sure
just a drop number nine the last thing
he wanted
how do you manage to assemble a cast
including the likes of anne hathaway
ben affleck rosie perez and william
defoe and have it go this badly
come on elise celebrate with me this is
your celebratory mode
come on i i got a big deal coming the
big deal
especially considering director d reese
gave us the superb 2017 historical drama
mudbound
and so i ended with that
[Music]
with love while that film carefully
juggled its ensemble cast to great and
emotionally profound effect
this movie is a mess a political
thriller it centers on a journalist who
during the 1984 presidential election is
pulled into the family business
arms dealing and by extension the iran
contra affair
series grace all this is you now
is there an inventory list everything is
here they know what they're buying
confused well the film only further
complicates things
netflix has distributed some truly great
films but the last thing he wanted feels
like it was just
unceremoniously dumped here number eight
the tax collector i'm sorry why
nothing's happened
i don't know i just you just what
you're okay calm down after the poor
critical response to suicide squad
director david ayer was quick to blame
studio interference
there's your pep talk compared to your
[ __ ] she killed it okay that's pretty
common with big budget comic book movies
but what's the excuse here watch a clip
from the tax collector out of context
and you might assume it's a fake movie
from a sketch show being played for
laughs
shia labeouf's character is supposedly
white but he's fully adopted chicano
cholo mannerisms
god doesn't exist i'm a product of
evolution david
i'm supposed to terrorize the herd
that's my function that's the knowledge
i was born in i don't say that the end
result is
uncomfortable the film just doesn't fail
in terms of good taste however
the plot is paper-thin and populated by
characters to match
self-aware or not the movie is a walking
collage of cliches and stereotypes
the cinematography and editing is also
distractingly off
number 7. john henry every year
countless films feel the sting of being
labeled rotten
but getting zero percent on the tomato
meter is truly special
john henry earns its place on the list
and the fact that it managed to do so
with a star as reliably charming as
terry crews
is a testament to just what a colossal
misfire it really is
no you haven't changed at all
yes i have and i am proud of every pound
put some respect on this thickness
sorry john henry borrows the name of the
african-american folk hero
and drags it through the mud in a story
that honestly has nothing to do with him
cruz plays an ex-gang member who
protects two honduran refugees from hell
hell being his former gang leader played
by ludacris
[Music]
respect a heartless thriller john henry
swings and misses at every opportunity
even failing to hit the status of so bad
it's good
you ain't no killer you know you ain't
no killer
i'm not a killer
number six force of nature in recent
years
mel gibson has largely followed nicholas
cage and john travolta
into the direct to video bargain bin and
sadly that's where this film belongs
force of nature sees gibson joined by
emil hirsch and kate
bosworth for a crime action movie with
disaster film elements
i'm a stubborn [ __ ] she takes after
me i'm standing right here you know what
i mean
the short version of the plot is that it
involves a heist during hurricane in
puerto rico
but honestly there's just way too many
moving parts it's like
no one including the director or
screenwriter was entirely sure as to
where this story was going so they just
made things up as they went along
are you a nazi no
unintentionally silly and more than a
little tone deaf in 2020
force of nature is a hurricane of
confusion
number five 365 days
if there's one movie that got people
talking for all the wrong reasons in
2020
it's this one 365 days isn't just
problematic it's shockingly
inappropriate and may very well go down
as one of the worst films ever made
it earned itself zero percent on rotten
tomatoes and arguably only attracted
viewers out of morbid curiosity once the
internet got wind of it
the plot reads as follows a sicilian man
kidnaps a woman and gives her one year
to fall in love with him
you have 365 days
i'll do anything so you can fall in love
with me
if next year on your birthday nothing
changes set you free so you might be
asking how could this horror thriller be
so offensive
well it's actually framed as a romantic
erotic drama
yeah oh and in case you're wondering the
acting is also terrible what's going on
did you kill him
it's none of your business you killed
him i shot his ass
number four hillbilly elegy prior to its
release
we actually had hillbilly allergy at
number four on our list of top 10 movies
and tv
shows coming to streaming in november of
2020. as such it's with great sadness
that we give the film the same spot on
this list
hey pick those up you shouldn't be
dancing in the store
shouldn't be dancing in the stores pick
those up
now he's doing it just
get out he hadn't bought his cards get
out
a drama exploring themes of identity
family and the american dream
hillbilly elegy boasts great
performances but not even powerhouses
like glenn close and amy adams can make
up for the movie's fundamentally flawed
screenplay
you always got a reason it's always
someone else's fault
some point you're gonna have to take
responsibility this isn't a compelling
investigation of poverty it just feels
voyeuristic
and all too content to revel in squalor
and stereotypes
it's not the worst film of the year but
it certainly fell furthest relative to
expectations
my family's not perfect but they made me
who i am
and gave me chances that they never had
number three
the last days of american crime edgar
ramirez and michael pitt are both very
competent actors
but what is an actor to do when in the
place of characters
they're given cardboard cutouts to play
instead hey
or did we just check off your list the
action thriller genre has given us so
many mindless straight to video films
over the years
and we didn't think there was anything
left for a movie to do that could really
shock us
but the last days of american crime digs
deep to find a new low and earn its
place amongst the worst films ever made
yep it's boring yep it's an endless slew
of prime film cliches
but in the context of the civil unrest
inspired by police brutality in the u.s
this movie is also absurdly out of touch
with the times
every friday we'd meet in the yard
they'd yell
fight and get us to do the nastiest [ __ ]
to each other
number two doolittle this is an
opportunity
with his ten year as iron man finally
having come to a close
robert downey jr finally has time to
focus on other projects
as one of the highest paid actors in the
world and with some great performances
under his belt he really has the clout
to do anything
so why did he choose to make this
massively expensive misfire of a
children's movie
make way boys
and why didn't anyone intervene to right
the ship during production
oh you were saying worship though
undeniably unnecessary
doolittle was by no means destined to
fail its missteps are glaring and
obvious
fart jokes abound and consistently fall
flat
respect the plot is needlessly
complicated but lacks an emotional core
which it tries to make up for by just
throwing
more cgi at us no one messes with my
family
before we unveil our top pick here are a
few dishonorable mentions
unhinged i don't even think you really
know what a bad day is
what you're going to find out coffee and
kareem
[Applause]
it's a different brand radio i don't
know does this sound okay
the kindness of strangers and you two
you sit there and you don't talk and you
take up space
well not you john p you've actually been
you've been terrific you've been very
kind the wrong missy let's throw on this
piece of [ __ ]
go hustle go he's catching up bram's the
boy too
well no one's gonna hurt mommy and daddy

number one artemis fowl wait wait wait
you don't want me no i'm just a talented
tundler
adaptations of beloved ya and or middle
years books in general
are far more likely to miss the mark
than succeed for every harry potter or
hunger games film franchise there are
three flops like mortal engines and the
fifth wave
but rarely has a book series with such
rich source material
and so many dedicated fans been adopted
so
poorly the changes are many impossible
to justify
and in some cases in fundamental
opposition to the spirit of owen
colfer's novels
try to imagine if humans suddenly found
out there was a world of magical
creatures living beneath
them most human beings are afraid of
gluten how do you think they'd handle
goblins
disney gave filmmaker kenneth brana an
ample budget but the cuts to the story
characters and world building make this
film feel lacking in every possible way
artemis fowl and his fans deserved much
better
so can we get a series now instead it
would appear we've garnered quite a bit
of interest
not ideal the media do you agree with
our picks
