As popular news sites are commenting on their best and worst of 2007, CNN has posted their own list of the worst movies for 2007. A list which I’m sure many, many people will disagree with. This is what Tom Charity had to say in his article about the worst movies:
“300″
Frankly, it was a tossup for the third spot between this gung-ho Greek meatfest and Michael Bay’s overblown toy commercial, “Transformers.” A lot of people got off on both, I realize, and the computer-generated work was impressive in its way. But no matter how you spin it, war porn is war porn — and we’d better off without it.
A tossup for 3rd spot (worst movie list) was between 300 and Transformers? WTF? Both of these movies were amazing. Story, action, special effects. I don’t see how either one of those titles could be anywhere near the worst for 2007. Matter of fact, don’t take my word for it, here are what some others had to say:
Transformers
- Flixster 4/5 based on 648,540 reviews.
- Fandango 5/5 based on 35,622 reviews.
- IMDb 7.6/10 based on 105,383 reviews.
300
- Flixster 4/5 based on 533,894 reviews.
- Fandango 5/5 based on 11,386 reviews.
- IMDb 8.0/10 based on 150,629 reviews.
Tom, I don’t know what you’ve been smoking. Was this some sort of shameless play in order to get people to look at your article?
