By far

EVERY CHARACTER IN THIS MOVIE MAKES ANNOYING SOUNDS! The whole movie is just a big annoying sound after another. Mix that with painful dialogue and almost equally painful plot development makes this a big pile of suck. They throw a bunch of different sideplots at you and leave you sitting in a puddle of halfass sideplots until the last five minutes where they haphazardly try to wrap it up. And the movie is like 3 frickin hours. Oh man, this movie SUCKS.

Liked it.

Simple straightforward, only one "twist".
Best Dr.Jekyl/Mr.Hyde ever!
Great Frankenstein's Monster
Ok Dracula
Good Wolfman

Great family old style horror movie. Slasher movie this is not, surprisingly mild violence.

this movie was BAD

- poor vfx overload
- terrible dialogue
- boring as ★■◆●

Started out good. Progressively got bad and worse until it was finally over. Hi Buef!

Sounds like another League of Extraordinary Gentlemen.
Anyone seen both and want to rate them both on a scale of 1 to 10 so I'll know if I should go or not?

i havent seen it yet, but...

does anyone else share the opinion of "wtf?!" when they cast hugh jackman as van helsing? i just cant see wolverine playing that role. he may be good, i havent seen it to find out, but my expectations of him playing that role are pretty low.

Crappo, there I was going to see it. Now I dunno.

A three hour movie. Sheesh. I remember when Titanic was the exception rather than the norm. Now producers seem more interested in "overfilming" a movie for the sake of meeting the mystical three hour mark, and to produce nine hidden endings for the special edition DVD.

I definitely would not feel cheated if a genuinely good movie came in at 1:15-2:00 hours. Insomuch as telling a good story is an art, so too is brevity.

it's not 3 hours... it's like 2 hours and 10 or 15 minutes

As far as a scale of 1-10, probably around 3? League of Extraordinary Gentlemen was a guaranteed 1 tho.

2 hours 20 mins.

BORING!

I usually love these kinds of movies. This one was fragmented, drawn out, and just plain dissapointing.

In this movie I think the actors did fine, the producers and directors just mangled the hell out of it in the final cut.

Vanhelsing - 2 of 10
Leauge of Ex Gent. 2.5 of 10

It wasn't as bad as The League.

It was a good action movie-- it's one of those movies you should go to see for the action, not the plot. I felt entertained. I wasn't given a new worldview or philosophical dogma, nor was there any conversation about the movie's implications to real life immediately forthwith, but it was entertaining.

if it's entertaining thats' what counts...i suppose i'll throw out the $5 to see this movie. Hopefully it doesn't suck too much.

If you can label Van Helsing the worste movie ever, you've apparently never seen that many to begin with

Be a little bit more objective and recognize movies for what they really are. Some movies have plot, others have stunning visuals, every now and then some movies have both *gasp* but all movies provide an escape from your everyday life regardless of how dumb you might think they are later.

If you can do better, work to do so...otherwise stfu

I thought the plot was pretty cool, but you didn't really know WTH was going on until a ways into the movie. I think they tried cramming too much stuff into too little time. Combine that with CHEEZ-E acting and cinematography(sp?), and you've got a pile of suck the size of a werewolf.

That's my my humble opinion.

Van Helsing: 2/10
League: 3/10

Did you help produce this abomination, or do you just have a soft spot for bad movies?


Personally the only escape I was looking for during this entire movie was the one marked "EXIT".


Tyr... Everyone has a right to their own opinion, even you.

As a tie in you might want to read this link from BBC regarding skin textures:


"It is being used in almost all visual effects for movies and there are a number of game companies looking at how to adapt the technique for games as well
Dr Henrik Jensen"

heh, no, I didn't work on this movie but I've most certainly seen "worse" then this movie could probably ever be. If I have a soft spot for anything, as far as movies are concerned, it probably would be the genre this movie is in.

Everyone is entitled to their opinions yes, but I just get the sense that people go to see movies like this expecting some revolutionary life altering experience and then if the movie falls short of that expectation it gets ripped on.

Being in an online community, especially a gaming community, I can't say that I'm really all that surprised though. We are some of the most whiney, nitpicking, unsatiated group of people on the planet

So, complain away!

"Personally the only escape I was looking for during this entire movie was the one marked "EXIT"."

WERD CLUTCH!

Dude...I wasn't expecting anything except for it not to suck. Hugh Jackman is a badass, and I was hoping this movie would be good. But it was god freakin awful.

Sorry, the worst movie ever was "Hollywood Cowboy". I hope none of you have ever seen it.

A friend of mine is absolutely obsessed about this movie. I kinda hope it sucks so she will stop talking about it all the time

Hey so what trailers were attached to it? Anything new/interesting?

Some Vin Diesel thing. Vin Diesel is dumb.

the sequal to pitch black? im gonna og see that, i loved pitch black. even though it looks like it wont be nearly as good as the first one.

man those were some of the goofiest monsters i've seen yet. i wonder what would happen if they went for a thin door.. their faces would probably snap in half like a bone.

it was a good action flick, and that is it, i don't know about you guys, but i don't go to movies expecting some philosophical revelation. i agree with Tyranny, movies are considered "entertainment". when i go see it i am entertained with action, chicks, and explosions. if i want to be mentally challenged i read a philosophical book, or something else not considered entertainment.

I like dumb action movies, as well, as long as they aren't really BAD. You can make a good action movie with hot girls that ISN'T extremely boring and DOESN'T have dialogue that sounds like it's written by a 4yo.

I was thoroughly entertained by Van Helsing. To me, it was no LOEG.

wow, if this movie is a 3/10 and league is a 1/10, than wtf is gigli? -5/10?


heh, i just like typing out / saying it....

g i g l i

The "badness" of Gigli was part hype. I never saw it, but I don't think it could have been much worse than LOEG (and was probably better). Besides, there's still a 0/10!

Actually, the worst movie EVER created was "master of disguise". It gets a -50 out of 10

worst movie ever?

"Plan 9 from Outer Space"

imho, the worst movie by far (at lest taht I have seen) was the Rocky Horror Picture Show ... geez.. and people actaully enjoy this thing?

My nominee...

"Battle Beyond the Stars"

i see you
a Sylvester Stallone movie
the worst

the suck of a film is certainly related to the budget. as the budget increases, so does the accountability of the film. we can derive a simple equation from this...

budget x factor of suck = overall quality.

using this formula it is clear that Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle is the worst movie of all time.

Nirvana once told me that even if i did not see The Time Machine (with Guy Pierce) that i should ask for my money back. Full Throttle makes the Time Machine look like Citizen Cane.

Everyone involved in Full Throttle should be brought before the Hague.

battlefield earth gets my vote for crappiest movie containing a big name. ive seen plenty of movies with nobody recognizable and small budgets that were worse than getting kicked in the nuts while giving birth, but what was travolta thinking?!

Shamelessly borrowed from pointlesswasteoftime.com:

Happy pally, did you actually see Time Machine? It was far worse... The wound was finally starting to heal after all these years, and you just tore it open again
