For me, it was the terrible, craptastic "Simply Irresistable". Has anyone seen this swill Sarah Michelle Gellar? I mean this movie was total crap. The talking crabs, the floating dances... terrible I tell you!

World Trade Center...
The movie itself concentrates on two PAPD officers, Will and John. It follows their ordeal up to the point of rescue. OK. Seems good. But what about the 2700+ people that were lost on that terrible day. The writers spent too much time basing the movie on two men and their "story of triumph" that the true events of the day were left in the shadows.
There were times during the movie that I almost forgot what I was watching because it seemed like these were the only two men (along with their families) affected by the tragedy. The ordeal seemed no different than that experienced by the miners that were rescued in pennsylvania several years back. There was no rescue of other people even mentioned until the ending credits, at which time they finally acknowledged that people were actually lost.
The movie gives the impression that September 11th and the days following was an uplifting experience because two men were found alive. It fails to document all that was lost and never recovered. If a movie must be made about such a tragedy then the movie should show it like it is. There should be no dramatic rescue with uplifting music. The day was terrible, the events were terrible, and the story was terrible. Lets not make the worst day in our country's history into an uplifting "happy ending" version of titanic.
Throughout the movie there were 3 mentions of lost people other than the main characters. The first of an unnamed elevator operator, the second was a quick clip of "missing person" posters, and the final was the ending credits that gave the true numbers. Those three scenes are what September 11th was. It was not a love story. It was not a triumph. And more than anything it was not material for a Hollywood movie.

I answered this query earlier with "Battlefield Earth." Probably the worst studio movie I have seen. Recent releases include Lady in the Water. A lot of "urban" gangster films are terrible with low production value and lousy direction and acting. Examples would be State Property and Never Die Alone.

You're right ...Simply Irresistable was difficult to sit through. its only saving grace was that one of the Boondock Saints was the male lead =p ....unfortunately, TBS insisted on playing it like ..5 times in a single week... or something....
I can't say what the worst movie I've ever seen was. I love bad movies. At least, when they're so bad, you have to like them. But I tell you what bad movie I wish I could've seen... Bloodrayne. I looked forward to it. It had Ben Kingsley in it. ...And the villain from Terminator 3 (and .."Queen of Iceland" in Ring of the Nibelungs) ...and based on a video game.
It came out on a Wednesday, and I hoped to see it Friday night. Even in a 'big city' like Atlanta, it didn't make it 'til its own opening Friday. All the theatres pulled it 'cause it brought in no revenue.
Missed opportunity, ...missed life experience.

hands down - SOLARIS..
that was the first movie that I have ever walked out on @ the theatre.
The theatre was 1/2 full when we got there, by the time my friend and I walked out I think there was about 10 people left. I can't think of one movie before or since Solaris that has been that painful to watch. I wonder how many people walked out of that movie during all it's viewings.
George Clooney should have been beaten for that movie.

If only it were possible to narrow it down to just one! There have been so many that could easily take the title but there is a horrible little number called Arachnia you can see on Demand that is so bad you can't get past the first 5 minutes. I dare you.

Under the Cheery Moon - the movie that Prince wrote. It's the only movie I've ever fallen asleep at, and then walked out on.
