To me, a list like this is subjective. What's worst to you is not so bad to me.
According to Fox News, these are the top 10 worst movies starring huge stars.
Basic Instinct 2
Battlefield Earth
Catwoman
Gigli
From Justin to Kelly
The Postman
Stop! Or My Mom Will Shoot!
Striptease
Supergeniuses: Baby Geniuses 2
Waterworld
Now, going over this list, I haven't seen a lot of these films for very good reasons. "Battlefield Earth" I did see on DVD just because I wanted to see for myself how bad a film could be, and just couldn't get over the fact that someone actually paid money to get this movie made. (We were spared a sequel when this film tanked in the most horrendous fashion.)
"Waterworld" I did see, and honestly, I don't think it was as bad as people make it out to be. It's no Oscar contender, but it's a fun little movie to watch when you're bored.
One movie I'm surprised isn't on the list, not necessarily because I think it's bad but because of how it got raked over the coals when it was released -- "Hudson Hawk" starring Bruce Willis. Like I said, I liked this film -- it was funny, quirky, and had some great action scenes. I think when people went in to see it they were expecting an action film and instead got a comedy.
I'm also surprised that "Ishtar" isn't on the list, either. Never saw that one, but is considered the be-all, end-all of bad movies starring big stars.
If you come across this post, give me your opinion on movies starring big stars that you thought were turkeys in the comments.
