Jim is a really bad person so honestly he deserves to flop in the last few years. With what has been revealed about him, and his abuse of women, and how badly he treats people on sets, its no wonder he cannot get work. Him being a flop these days isnt surprising.
Maybe this is just me, but especially after reading the original book, I never thought Pinocchio becoming a real boy was his reward for learning to be good; I thought it was Gepetto's reward for putting up with him. If you've only ever seen the animated Disney version you might think Pinocchio was just naive, but versions that show him as a horrible brat are far more accurate to the original book.
The version that made him popular in Italy was the fascist propaganda version of him btw... who was admirably detourned and made fun of in the guillermo del toro version!!
If you ever wonder why you almost never see people try to make a book-accurate version of Pinocchio, this is why. Nobody wants to put up with watching that kind of character.
Turning into a baby with your own adult mind has got to be the most torturous and scariest thing I've ever seen in a movie. And it's not even a horror movie.
Actually, isn’t that kinda like that Goosebumps book/episode The Cuckoo Clock of Doom? Okay, technically the kid there is 12, but it’s the same idea where he’s still fully aware, even as he reverts back to being a baby. Has a crazy dark ending. No joke, I would *totally* watch a horror movie with that premise-probably one of the most original premises for a horror/thriller I’ve seen in over a decade.
I substitute taught an Italian class years ago. The teacher was having them watch Pinocchio in the original Italian with no subtitles. One of the most bizarre, confusing, and gross film watching experiences I've ever had. And I had to watch it multiple times.
@@T-Fordfrom my recollection, I believe that the original Italian-language version of the film was better received. It was the changes made to the script in the English version by the American distribution company, The Weinstein Company, that made the international film so hated.
@@timdatanuki2375 as far as I remember when the movie came out in Italy was hated by almost anyone, the expectation for the movie where really high as the director and actor of Pinocchio, Roberto Benigni won the Oscar for best International feature film and the Oscar for male leading actor few years before for La Vita è Bella, and this was his next movie after that.
I actually enjoyed watching it in the original Italian, but I watched it out of my own will. No one forced me to watch it, I feel it make sit better to watch. I also feel repulsed by translations so the simple fact it's not dubbed makes the watching experience better imo.
I really enjoy how rotten tomatoes divides audience and critic scores. Maybe a video on movies with the biggest audience critic score difference would be interesting? 👀
The biggest differences tend to be kids movies in my experience. The movie has a target audience of 7 year olds the critics aren't going to like it, but parents who know it'll shut their kid up for 2 hours love it.
@@scragar oh interesting. I mostly notice things like Godzilla (the less serious ones), where it’s absolutely entertaining and fun, but critically doesn’t meet “expectations”
@@scragar on the opposite end, sometimes super artsy movies get very high critic scores while audience scores are much lower one of the biggest splits like this that I can think of is We’re All Going to the Worlds Fair, which has a 90% critic score and a 28% audience score lol
the ones with the biggest divide tend to be monster movies and comedies. Since comedy is entirely subjective it can be made to appeal to a very specific audience that might not get the joke. Deadpool and Wolverine is a good example. Monster movies also tend to cater to a single type of moviegoer, and critics who are used to analyzing a film for deep meaning don't quite engage with them the same way. Sometimes you get a few that squeak through, like Godzilla Minus One, but most monster movies hover at around 70% even for the really good ones.
Funny thing about Pinocchio: as creepy as it is for him to be played by a grown man, his behaviour is actually accurate to his portrayal in the original book, where he is a loathsome, manipulative little sh-thead.
Fun-ish facts: The actor/director of Pinocchio is Roberto Benigni, and the fairy godmother is Nicoletta Braschi. Benigni was also director and lead actor of academy award winning movie, “Life is beautiful” a terribly tragic comedy about the Holocaust. Nicoletta played the female lead in that movie as well. Also, Benigni redid Pinocchio in 2019, to much greater success.
@@katesicleah so the Italian version was met with mixed reviews, but it was a recut redubbed American version that was met with absolutely scathing reviews
Just a reminder for everyone: Rotten Tomatoes doesn’t actually measure the movie’s quality on a 1-10 scale like IMDb or metacritic, it just shows the percentage of critics who answer the yes or no question of whether they think the movie is average or better
That actually makes these movies worse. Many overall watchable movies are just "meh". If NO one says a movie is even "meh" that's worse than just an aggregate of 1-10s.

That Jim Carrey film is actually based on a true crime case in Poland. The writer's name is Krystian Bala and I'm pretty sure he's still in prison for that murder. The book that got him convicted is titled Amok. The whole case is insane and you know what they say, reality is aways stranger than fiction.
@troodon1096 lol clearly. I didn't follow it closely, but when the story got public, the sales of that book skyrocketed because everybody was trying to look for clues.

My favorite part of A Thousand Words was the bit where he went out on a business dinner at the same time that the magic tree in his backyard was being sprayed with pesticides, and because the magic link between him and the tree goes both ways apparently, the pesticides end up getting him high in the middle of dinner. And while this is all happening, "Because I Got High" is playing. It might be my favorite part because it's the only part I remember.
Kudos on making it through the comedies - they're easily the hardest to watch. Bad horror, bad fantasy, bad action, bad sci-fi, even bad drama can all we watchable because their ineptitude provokes laughter, which is a pleasant sensation, but bad comedy just provokes anger and disappointment.

I'm surprised no Steven Seagal MEGA-BLOCKBUSTER made it's way to this list. I'm guessing there were 35 people reviewing, but only 34 who weren't intimidated by Seagal to post it.
@troodon1096 which would be interesting also bc it means some lone movie watcher felt so insulted by some shite film they were hoodwinked into watching somehow and felt so strongly about it's awfulness that they had to log into IMDB and share their opinion/warning with the world - I'm sure for personal therapy as well as hoping so save just a small part of time for the human race
Also, was that the animal that actually swallowed Geppetto and then him in the original story? Because that story was read to me when I was as kid, but it’s been so long that I can’t remember.
@@liamwynne566I know a lot of things are taken from their original cultural roots, misunderstood, misapplied, and misused. And quite frankly I’m tired of people stealing everything but an understanding. 🤷🏾♂️
"Getting 35 people to agree that a movie has no redeemable qualities really says something about the movie" And then I notice one of the movies in the preview of the list is one that's a guilty pleasure of mine 😂
Honestly it's a perfectly fine movie for what it is if you have elementary grade children to entertain. Every family gathering I've been to around the time it came out had it playing on a TV and the kids were all fixated on it and laughing hysterically.
I hate that movie because I told my mom to turn it off because it was just so bad and she went on a huge rant about how I never like anything she watches.
i don't know if you realise that the people they were talking about in Gotti were real people or not, they're hardly stereotypical names if they're the ACTUAL NAMES
I thought the same, like, it feels cliche and all, but if this is a biopic of a real life mafioso, everything in the movie maybe really happened in real life, the names and the events, so it's like, you are making fun of dead people.
I don’t understand the hate for this movie. Obviously it’s not the Godfather, but I thought it was a respectable mafia movie that did its job in retelling the events that actually happened. Some creative decisions may not have been ideal, but the movie is a biopic and gets way to much hate, imo.
@@angelcou254 The "mob movie cliches" are cliches for a reason - they're usually based on real life events and people! "The rat who brings down the entire organization", for example, was a staple of post-RICO indictments of mobsters, since they started facing multiple 20+ years sentences and cooperating with the FBI was the way out of that. It didn't help that usually the FBI would be able to produce recordings of the bosses insinuating that the person facing those jail sentences would be murdered precisely to avoid cooperation. Famously, Sammy Gravano was convinced to cooperate when they played him tapes of Gotti badmouthing him, calling him too greedy and insinuating he would be better dead.
I'm a simple man. I see a handsome guy discussing bad movies and I immediately click. But I subscribed because you're also extremely funny and fun to watch. Have no clue why you don't have more subs but at least you have one more now
Ok but I HAVE to say this in defense of the Pinocchio film: In the book he gets eaten by a giant fish, NOT a whale. That was all Disney. Having it be a giant shark is both more dramatic and more accurate to the story, as sharks are fish and whales are mammals.
This is random but I was in conversations with Travolta's team just after this movie wrapped - lemme tell you they thought this was an absolute masterpiece, and that he had obtained some *ultimate cool points* for playing Gotti
A coworker of mine had spoken with Travolta while they were filming here, and he said he was STOKED to play Gotti, too! So when I heard that, me and my buddy were looking forward to watching it until the reviews came rolling out... yikes, man.
I’m surprised that Jack and Jill wasn’t the Adam Sandler movie in this list. I’d genuinely rather watch The Ridiculous 6 than Jack and Jill, to be perfectly honest with you, it’s THAT bad.
1:07:22 This actually happened. A Polish man named Krystian Bala killed a local business owner in 2000, and then wrote the details of the murder into a novel 3 years later. The novel was later used as evidence against him in his trial.
When I was like 6 I was an extra in the blurry background for Eddy Murphy 1000 words. Apparently I head-butted him on the pier where we were shooting and he was very pissed
Actually Pinocchio originally a set of short stories that were released onto the local newspaper. The author really hated kids and wanted to scare them into behaving so he wrote Pinocchio as the genuine antagonist you see in the 2000 version lol
So Left Behind is based off the first book in a 16 book series (that i have never read) so did they hope to make this a 16 movie series if it did well?
@BushMermaid1394 they get progressively more unhinged and antisemitic as they go. Also while they claim to be based in theology, the authors basically made shit up that supported their evangelical agenda.
This is a great video. This video despite being over an hour comes in the small chunks that my attention span is now only able to consume because I watch too much UA-cam. Just when the part of me would think I don't want to watch a whole video about a movie you would move to a different movie and I would remember I'm not watching one long documentary about one movie and then as you'd start talking about another movie that would snap me out of it and start the cycle again. I'm probably overthinking this but I just really think this video and the concept and how it was filmed and how long the segments were was just about perfect on top of that the host is funny and engaging so 100% 10 out of 10 in my book
Fun fact: "One Missed Call," had a screenplay that was written by Andrew Klaven. Yes, the same Andrew Klaven that works over at the Daily Wire. And apparently he hated the movie and agreed with the backlash, because he felt that nobody was on the same page over what kind of film it should be. And then compounding the problem was that the film was hastily edited from an R rated film down to a PG-13 by the studio.
@@erraticonteuse Because they feel rejected by the Mainstream whenever they fail miserably. And so, whenever political grifters come a-callin' (be they far left or far right), they find themselves wanted over there. In short: Cults.
I wanna say that the guy becoming immune to the signal was like, them literally burning his brain to a point where it cannot register things he does as being "wrong" in the same way anymore. But that may be giving the movie more credit than it deserves.
The only people who saw the Kirk Cameron one are Evangelicals and it reinforces their worldview. The Nick Cage one made the mistake of trying to be vaguely mainstream.
@@erraticonteuseas a religious person myself, at least the Kirk Cameron version has some accuracies and did they research. The Nic Cage one is just bad and they had no idea what they were doing. It’s more funny than anything
Also the Kirk Cameron movies got all the sequels where the actual insanity ensues. Crazy romanian antochrist named Carpathia that wants to take over the world with the UN. You got all the evangelical insane conspiracies there.
The funny thing about Pinnochio is that it's just the American dub that got the 0%. The original Italian version is apparently, while not great, not nearly as bad. The Italians actually felt confident enough in it that they submitted it as their entry for Best Foreign Film at the Oscars.
Yeah but 99% of the time people aren't referring to Pinocchio when they say it. One thing does not translate to another just because something sucked once.
Amusingly enough he's played by Jon Voigt who has become a fervent Trumpster and conspiracy loon. Maybe he liked playing a Nazi a tad too much. Would explain things.
@@T-Ford Technically "communist" because the film opens in an orphanage in East Germany, or the German Democratic Republic, which was part of the Eastern Bloc after WWII until 1989 with the destruction of the Berlin Wall and re-unification of Germany. Yes, I'm talking about the sequel to the Baby Geniuses movie. Specifically the first sequel. There are more.
@@ashkitt7719okay, but he was still dressed like a Nazi. Maybe he defected to the commies but kept his old uniform so they didn’t have to bother providing him with a new one?
Dude, how did you not make each one of these a video in a series? Because holy crap that is a LOT of terrible to endure for a single use video! 😂 I mean, well done, subbed for more.
I feel like One Missed Call would have been way better if Sam and Dean Winchester just showed up and started setting people's phones on fire after smacking them out of their hands
That Pinocchio log scene made me absolutely lose it. Like I was literally laughing like an idiot watching that clip. I may be broken lol - also i love that that guy had to process that the book hurt him so badly. You'd think he'd just immediately fall down, like being knocked out. This movie looks like it'd be an amazing "so bad it's funny" watch.
It's amazing how many decent actors are starring in such a bad movie. It's like they did everything possible to make it cringe. And insensitive, especially for something based on a true crime story. Like how.
As someone who read the Left Behind books in high school, I can attest that the Nic Cage adaptation only covered the _first three chapters_ of the first book. They borrow some elements from later installments, but in terms of the plot? Three chapters. Landing the plane was a pretty meager aspect of the whole story. After that, they... you know, do other things. The news reporter starts researching the phenomenon. The pilot meets up with a hypocritical pastor who didn't get raptured. They find out who the freaking antichrist is! There's so much they could've done with a full-fledged Nic Cage Left Behind movie! I'm not saying it would've been _good,_ but it might've been more archetypal Nicolas Cage.
Though the age would be off, I think Cage would have been a better Buck, or even his contact. Ray was not that energetic at the start. Also, my favorite review of the series is, "The only thing that got left behind was the theology". I read all the main books, the first of the prequel trilogy, and saw the Kirk movies as well. When I heard that this movie was basically just taking place on the plane, I was not interested in it at all.
I remember actually seeing "A Thousand Words," and while I do feel the idiot plot was bad and jokes were weak, I did kinda like the dramatic third act. But my problem is that while it's bad, it's more an unremarkable inoffensive bargin bin comedy bad, not a... well, "0% on Rotten Tomatoes" bad. To me, it's 0% is less evidence of the film's actual quality and more the really short list of reviews they pulled from... Which is another example on why we on the internet put more stock in instant data results and don't consider the bigger picture which is why RT always be trusted. Like I don't believe that this is truly worse than Pluto Nash, even if that is at best, more interesting to talk about.
I mean... In the book Pinocchio was insufferable and a brat you wanted to smack so they got the spirit right, it just looked like a 40 year old man, not a wooden doll
32:55 I assume "I introduced you," was meant to mean: "I had sex with her *before* you met her, then you met her, and married her, making her my stepmother. You only found out I'd slept with her after that." It's not clear, because the writing is terrible but that's my way of making sense of it.

Here in Italy, benigni's pinocchio is like the golden standard for movies. It's among his best works and it was a very faithful adaptation. It's also the greatest tuscan actor who plays a movie adaptation of the greatest Tuscan piece of literature (except Dante's divine comedy) So much is lost in the dub
A very well produced video, keep it up I know your channel will blow up. You’re a professional UA-camr whose subscribers hasn’t grown into the quality and talent you put into your videos yet.

i mean considering that was real people’s names and nick names in gotti, that’s just a bad take, what are they suppose to do change their names to something less stereotypical even if it’s accurate to real life ?
Rotten tomatoes doesnt take the average of every critic review and display that, there were critics who found redeeming qualities in some of these. Critic reviews are either high enough to be positive or low enough to be negative, and thats all that gets factored into the score
Yeah that annoys me so much how many people don't understand how the site. Certified Fresh doesn't mean it's a masterpiece, it means the majority of viewers thought it was at least average.
That scene where the two of them disarmed themselves and started fist-fighting only for one of them to pull out a knife was taken directly from the OG Tomb Raider movie with Angelina Jolie, lmao
What bothers me the most about the Pinocchio movie is the guy who plays him is the same actor from Life is Beautiful, which is one of the best WW2 films ever made in my opinion. In that movie, he was absolutely phenomenal, and he is a tremendously talented actor. But in that live action Pinocchio film he was given absolutely nothing to work with. So sad to see.
He directed AND wrote the screenplays for both of these movies, so just like how Life is Beautiful is 100% his achievement, Pinocchio is 100% his fault.

I'm surprised no Steven Seagal MEGA-BLOCKBUSTER made it's way to this list.
I'm guessing there were 35 people reviewing, but only 34 who weren't intimidated by Seagal to post it.
I-cy what you did there
I like the steven seagal mega blockbuster hit movie where he showed the world that hes fat
Steven Seagal hasn't been in a movie since Half Past Dead. His fat Israeli cousin took over for him as an actor.
THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU POLLUTE THE PLANET
Im legit surprised there are only 13 films.
There's far more 0-percenters than this, but he chose not to include ones that very few people bothered to review.
@troodon1096 which would be interesting also bc it means some lone movie watcher felt so insulted by some shite film they were hoodwinked into watching somehow and felt so strongly about it's awfulness that they had to log into IMDB and share their opinion/warning with the world - I'm sure for personal therapy as well as hoping so save just a small part of time for the human race
@@troodon1096Imo the comment still stands
The fact that he didn't know Roberto Benigni and called him a "40 with a mortgage" was hilarious
Not one person in the comments informing you that in the OG Pinocchio book, the whale is a dogfish which is a type of shark
Also, was that the animal that actually swallowed Geppetto and then him in the original story? Because that story was read to me when I was as kid, but it’s been so long that I can’t remember.
I saw it in another comment
Also, OG stands for Original Gangster. Not really applicable here
@@thatboybear it's become a common term meaning original, you know that
@@liamwynne566I know a lot of things are taken from their original cultural roots, misunderstood, misapplied, and misused. And quite frankly I’m tired of people stealing everything but an understanding. 🤷🏾♂️
"Getting 35 people to agree that a movie has no redeemable qualities really says something about the movie"
And then I notice one of the movies in the preview of the list is one that's a guilty pleasure of mine 😂
Me too! I like ridiculous 6 lol
It's a piece of shit movie, but for me, it's so bad that it's good. I like it like a like sharknado
The "Reverse Gun" bit made me laugh harder than anything in recent memory, so thank you for enduring all this slop.
I think ive seen that movie... or at leat some parts, like the reverse gun.
Honestly i didnt hate a thousand words
Same and I’m not afraid to admit that me and my mom had a good time watching ridiculous 6
@@ProGamer-lk9qw just some fun thoughtless entertainment right there
I actually cried a little during that film didn't expect such a bittersweet message to come from that movie
me either, i just think compared to other eddie murphy movies it was considered “bad”
Bro made the movie😭🙏
I watched all of 7 minutes of Ridiculous Six before my first netflix and chill hookup. It ended up being the highlight of the evening.
Yall are going to hate me but I found that movie funny. Especially the Taylor swinging on a noose scene.
I wonder if the time watched lasted longer than the date 😂😅
@@grandturtle2786I mean, the third nipple "doesn't hurt to have a spare" joke got a nose exhale out of me, so I can't judge.
Honestly it's a perfectly fine movie for what it is if you have elementary grade children to entertain. Every family gathering I've been to around the time it came out had it playing on a TV and the kids were all fixated on it and laughing hysterically.
I hate that movie because I told my mom to turn it off because it was just so bad and she went on a huge rant about how I never like anything she watches.
i don't know if you realise that the people they were talking about in Gotti were real people or not, they're hardly stereotypical names if they're the ACTUAL NAMES
I thought the same, like, it feels cliche and all, but if this is a biopic of a real life mafioso, everything in the movie maybe really happened in real life, the names and the events, so it's like, you are making fun of dead people.
I don’t understand the hate for this movie. Obviously it’s not the Godfather, but I thought it was a respectable mafia movie that did its job in retelling the events that actually happened. Some creative decisions may not have been ideal, but the movie is a biopic and gets way to much hate, imo.
@@angelcou254 The "mob movie cliches" are cliches for a reason - they're usually based on real life events and people! "The rat who brings down the entire organization", for example, was a staple of post-RICO indictments of mobsters, since they started facing multiple 20+ years sentences and cooperating with the FBI was the way out of that. It didn't help that usually the FBI would be able to produce recordings of the bosses insinuating that the person facing those jail sentences would be murdered precisely to avoid cooperation. Famously, Sammy Gravano was convinced to cooperate when they played him tapes of Gotti badmouthing him, calling him too greedy and insinuating he would be better dead.
Fo-git 'bout it!
@@angelcou254you say that like making fun of mobsters is a bad thing. Just because they're dead doesn't mean they're suddenly good people.
The original One Missed Call was pretty good. Probably because it never took itself seriously. The sequel and the American remake were unnecessary.
I feel like that pinnocchio movie redeemed itself just with that ridiculous log scene.
I'm a simple man. I see a handsome guy discussing bad movies and I immediately click. But I subscribed because you're also extremely funny and fun to watch. Have no clue why you don't have more subs but at least you have one more now
Ok but I HAVE to say this in defense of the Pinocchio film: In the book he gets eaten by a giant fish, NOT a whale. That was all Disney. Having it be a giant shark is both more dramatic and more accurate to the story, as sharks are fish and whales are mammals.
Yeah, I thought that might’ve been the case.
This is random but I was in conversations with Travolta's team just after this movie wrapped - lemme tell you they thought this was an absolute masterpiece, and that he had obtained some *ultimate cool points* for playing Gotti
Well we're talking about the same person that thought Battlefield Earth was a masterpiece, so maybe we shouldn't be that surprised.
A coworker of mine had spoken with Travolta while they were filming here, and he said he was STOKED to play Gotti, too! So when I heard that, me and my buddy were looking forward to watching it until the reviews came rolling out... yikes, man.
@@troodon1096😂😂😂Damn u beat me to it
lol he also played that crazy stalker guy in Fanatic, I’m sure he thought that was Oscar worthy.
What did mobsters irl think?
I’m surprised that Jack and Jill wasn’t the Adam Sandler movie in this list. I’d genuinely rather watch The Ridiculous 6 than Jack and Jill, to be perfectly honest with you, it’s THAT bad.
kind of rude of them to not cast the real john gotti as john gotti's ghost
1:07:22 This actually happened. A Polish man named Krystian Bala killed a local business owner in 2000, and then wrote the details of the murder into a novel 3 years later. The novel was later used as evidence against him in his trial.
Fun Fact: One of the main characters in Gold Diggers also voiced Terry McGinnis in Batman fucking Beyond
You mean Will Friedle?
That log scene is unintentionally terrifying. A conscious 500 pound log just whipping through the town square
When I was like 6 I was an extra in the blurry background for Eddy Murphy 1000 words. Apparently I head-butted him on the pier where we were shooting and he was very pissed
That’s awesome
Actually Pinocchio originally a set of short stories that were released onto the local newspaper. The author really hated kids and wanted to scare them into behaving so he wrote Pinocchio as the genuine antagonist you see in the 2000 version lol
So Left Behind is based off the first book in a 16 book series (that i have never read) so did they hope to make this a 16 movie series if it did well?
100% and they keep trying it, evangelicals love that series
Believe it or not they have made sequels that do not include Nick Cage haha
I'm sorry, 16 BOOKS?
That makes sense. The movie (from this review) just ends when the whole airplane plot could have been the first 10 minutes of a much larger movie.
@BushMermaid1394 they get progressively more unhinged and antisemitic as they go. Also while they claim to be based in theology, the authors basically made shit up that supported their evangelical agenda.
This is a great video. This video despite being over an hour comes in the small chunks that my attention span is now only able to consume because I watch too much UA-cam. Just when the part of me would think I don't want to watch a whole video about a movie you would move to a different movie and I would remember I'm not watching one long documentary about one movie and then as you'd start talking about another movie that would snap me out of it and start the cycle again. I'm probably overthinking this but I just really think this video and the concept and how it was filmed and how long the segments were was just about perfect on top of that the host is funny and engaging so 100% 10 out of 10 in my book
Although you would never have a book. You watch way too much UA-cam.
5:05 how tf did she get the gun past tsa ?! Must have been pre- 9/11
The book's setting is late 90s. Though, they didn't have the no outside access to the cockpit locks until after 9/11 so, who knows.
The look of absolute glee on this man’s face while saying “Beat up babies” is such a vibe
19:54
Fun fact: "One Missed Call," had a screenplay that was written by Andrew Klaven. Yes, the same Andrew Klaven that works over at the Daily Wire. And apparently he hated the movie and agreed with the backlash, because he felt that nobody was on the same page over what kind of film it should be. And then compounding the problem was that the film was hastily edited from an R rated film down to a PG-13 by the studio.
What is it with failed screenwriters pivoting to the far right?
@@erraticonteuse Because they feel rejected by the Mainstream whenever they fail miserably. And so, whenever political grifters come a-callin' (be they far left or far right), they find themselves wanted over there. In short: Cults.
@@erraticonteuse I guess they want to be bitter and angry and take it out on the world.
@@Lechgangit’s because more than likely they refused to play ball
@@creed8712 I mean their work speaks for itself. If you need any more proof that they're talentless grifters then that's totally on you.
The last days of American crime is a horrendous movie, an abomination, completely unwatchable. I couldn't get through it. You're a saint.
I wanna say that the guy becoming immune to the signal was like, them literally burning his brain to a point where it cannot register things he does as being "wrong" in the same way anymore.
But that may be giving the movie more credit than it deserves.
so they created a psychopath
Just found this channel and its criminally underrated.
I can't believe the Kirk Cameron version of Left Behind has better ratings than the Nic Cage one.
The only people who saw the Kirk Cameron one are Evangelicals and it reinforces their worldview. The Nick Cage one made the mistake of trying to be vaguely mainstream.
@@erraticonteuse Makes sense.
@@erraticonteuseas a religious person myself, at least the Kirk Cameron version has some accuracies and did they research. The Nic Cage one is just bad and they had no idea what they were doing. It’s more funny than anything
In my opinion the Kirk Cameron movies have just enough unintentional camp to make them "so bad they're good." The Nick Cage movie is just boring.
Also the Kirk Cameron movies got all the sequels where the actual insanity ensues.
Crazy romanian antochrist named Carpathia that wants to take over the world with the UN.
You got all the evangelical insane conspiracies there.
The funny thing about Pinnochio is that it's just the American dub that got the 0%. The original Italian version is apparently, while not great, not nearly as bad. The Italians actually felt confident enough in it that they submitted it as their entry for Best Foreign Film at the Oscars.
2002 Pinocchio is one of my favorite movies to reference when people say, why can't movie just hold to the story in the book.
Yeah but 99% of the time people aren't referring to Pinocchio when they say it. One thing does not translate to another just because something sucked once.
Thank you for your sacrifice. Sitting through a good movie is hard enough these days
So glad my algorithm gave me this video. How you only have 5k subs is beyond me, video has the same quality you'd expect from a 500k account!
We're not gonna talk about how the superbaby villain has the swoopy hair, accent and angry intonation of a certain ruler during WWII?
why did the villain in that stupid baby movie remind me of nazis with how they act, dress, and speak?
They don't openly say it but he definitely is a nazi haha
Amusingly enough he's played by Jon Voigt who has become a fervent Trumpster and conspiracy loon. Maybe he liked playing a Nazi a tad too much. Would explain things.
@@T-Ford Technically "communist" because the film opens in an orphanage in East Germany, or the German Democratic Republic, which was part of the Eastern Bloc after WWII until 1989 with the destruction of the Berlin Wall and re-unification of Germany.
Yes, I'm talking about the sequel to the Baby Geniuses movie. Specifically the first sequel. There are more.
@@ashkitt7719okay, but he was still dressed like a Nazi. Maybe he defected to the commies but kept his old uniform so they didn’t have to bother providing him with a new one?
The ridiculous 6 is top tier, I will never not defend this movie
Dude, how did you not make each one of these a video in a series? Because holy crap that is a LOT of terrible to endure for a single use video! 😂
I mean, well done, subbed for more.
I feel like One Missed Call would have been way better if Sam and Dean Winchester just showed up and started setting people's phones on fire after smacking them out of their hands
Ok... for some reason your voice reminds me of a young Norm McDonald. I mean that as a compliment btw.
Good video. Subbed :)
I thought the same thing!
That Pinocchio log scene made me absolutely lose it. Like I was literally laughing like an idiot watching that clip. I may be broken lol
- also i love that that guy had to process that the book hurt him so badly. You'd think he'd just immediately fall down, like being knocked out. This movie looks like it'd be an amazing "so bad it's funny" watch.
the production on this is so good!! deserves way more views
Charlotte Gainsbourg's character in Dark Crimes feels like a parody of every Charlotte Gainsbourg character.
It's amazing how many decent actors are starring in such a bad movie. It's like they did everything possible to make it cringe. And insensitive, especially for something based on a true crime story. Like how.
As someone who read the Left Behind books in high school, I can attest that the Nic Cage adaptation only covered the _first three chapters_ of the first book. They borrow some elements from later installments, but in terms of the plot? Three chapters. Landing the plane was a pretty meager aspect of the whole story. After that, they... you know, do other things. The news reporter starts researching the phenomenon. The pilot meets up with a hypocritical pastor who didn't get raptured. They find out who the freaking antichrist is! There's so much they could've done with a full-fledged Nic Cage Left Behind movie! I'm not saying it would've been _good,_ but it might've been more archetypal Nicolas Cage.
Though the age would be off, I think Cage would have been a better Buck, or even his contact. Ray was not that energetic at the start.
Also, my favorite review of the series is, "The only thing that got left behind was the theology". I read all the main books, the first of the prequel trilogy, and saw the Kirk movies as well. When I heard that this movie was basically just taking place on the plane, I was not interested in it at all.
Was there even a Carpathia in this? They somehow made it incredibly boring & not interesting for even the target audience.
I was so hopeful, having been really into the books & loving Cage in National Treasure, & then nobody cared, including the makers.
Thank you for doing the Lord's work, Ballistic deserves more love
I remember actually seeing "A Thousand Words," and while I do feel the idiot plot was bad and jokes were weak, I did kinda like the dramatic third act. But my problem is that while it's bad, it's more an unremarkable inoffensive bargin bin comedy bad, not a... well, "0% on Rotten Tomatoes" bad.
To me, it's 0% is less evidence of the film's actual quality and more the really short list of reviews they pulled from... Which is another example on why we on the internet put more stock in instant data results and don't consider the bigger picture which is why RT always be trusted.
Like I don't believe that this is truly worse than Pluto Nash, even if that is at best, more interesting to talk about.
Yeah not a great (or even memorable) movie but definitely not a 0% imo
Yeah, I watched the movie. It's not the best but definetly not a 0%, completely undeserved
9:40 they did every log/wood pun in the book and missed “stop in the name of the lawg.”
That super babies movie was my avengers as a child 😂
Same!
This &, appropriately, a completely different weird live-action Pinocchio movie (the one with Jonathan Taylor Thomas) were strangely pivotal to me.
Weirdly formative for me too; when I saw National Treasure, I thought “hey, it’s the bad guy from Superbabies.”
@lawrencecalablaster568 ive seen that actor a few times and he'll always just be the super babies villain to me 😂
I mean... In the book Pinocchio was insufferable and a brat you wanted to smack so they got the spirit right, it just looked like a 40 year old man, not a wooden doll
Oh and in the book the log started speaking to gepetto while it was getting cut and screaming that it's tickling him
I used to love A Thousand Words as a kid.
When I saw it again later in life, I was surprised at how… not good it actually was.
It's been a while since I watched it, I remember watching it and loving it.
I was listening to this, because of my recommendations but jesus christ you deserve way more subscribers!
Oh dang dude. Thank you for sacrificing your sanity for our entertainment. A true hero.
To be fair, if I were on a plane and 1/4 of the passengers disappeared, I would definitely also need verification that the pilot was still alive.
32:55 I assume "I introduced you," was meant to mean:
"I had sex with her *before* you met her, then you met her, and married her, making her my stepmother. You only found out I'd slept with her after that."
It's not clear, because the writing is terrible but that's my way of making sense of it.
Hey mate. I got your video randomly recommended and wanna say that was some quality time unlike the movies 😁 Thumb up and sub. I really like your casual style and tone you definitely deserve to have way more views and subs 👍
It's lo-og, lo-og, it's big. it's heavy. it's wood.

Here in Italy, benigni's pinocchio is like the golden standard for movies. It's among his best works and it was a very faithful adaptation.
It's also the greatest tuscan actor who plays a movie adaptation of the greatest Tuscan piece of literature (except Dante's divine comedy)
So much is lost in the dub
That says a lot about Italian movies 💩
I hate him

A very well produced video, keep it up I know your channel will blow up. You’re a professional UA-camr whose subscribers hasn’t grown into the quality and talent you put into your videos yet.
Based on the fact you have a Calvin and Hobbes poster in your room automatically means I’m a subscriber
Found your channel today and don't understand how you don't have more subs. I've watched others review these movies in the past but this video is brilliant, might have to go binge your channel now!
i mean considering that was real people’s names and nick names in gotti, that’s just a bad take, what are they suppose to do change their names to something less stereotypical even if it’s accurate to real life ?
Sincerely ty so much for all the entertainment, info and content that this video holds!!! BRAVO 🤗
Rotten tomatoes doesnt take the average of every critic review and display that, there were critics who found redeeming qualities in some of these.
Critic reviews are either high enough to be positive or low enough to be negative, and thats all that gets factored into the score
The dubbing on that Pinocchio movie is AWFUL!!!
They couldn't find *anybodys* kid to play Pinocchio??
He is a really popular italian comedian actor thats probably why they chose him, he acted in really good movies
The Pinocchio actor (Roberto Benigni) was also the writer and director of the film.
You are absolutely going places. Great stuff!
"I had a dream where I flew & fought Godzilla" that's too specific to be made up haha
This concept is indeed intriguing. Your dedication is commendable.
11:55 Monstro was actually a shark in the original book as well(the "terrible dogfish", a giant shark who was the "khan of the sea").
Pinocchio was also a super annoying bitch in the book, right?
Nick cages daughter is also flashing her high beams directly into a barricade and a wall of barrels. Probability didn't help with the visibility
Rotten Tomatoes doesn't review movies! They collect reviews and attach a percentage to them depending on position and negative reviews
Yeah that annoys me so much how many people don't understand how the site. Certified Fresh doesn't mean it's a masterpiece, it means the majority of viewers thought it was at least average.
That scene where the two of them disarmed themselves and started fist-fighting only for one of them to pull out a knife was taken directly from the OG Tomb Raider movie with Angelina Jolie, lmao
What bothers me the most about the Pinocchio movie is the guy who plays him is the same actor from Life is Beautiful, which is one of the best WW2 films ever made in my opinion. In that movie, he was absolutely phenomenal, and he is a tremendously talented actor. But in that live action Pinocchio film he was given absolutely nothing to work with. So sad to see.
The funny part is: He is the director of the Pinocchio movie.
it is just a comedy on top of the actual Pinnochio story. Not a drama like Life is Beautiful
He directed AND wrote the screenplays for both of these movies, so just like how Life is Beautiful is 100% his achievement, Pinocchio is 100% his fault.
you go into my recommendations, good job, good concept
