Movies you regret seeing

I don't regret seeing many films, even the ones I don't like, but I'd make an exception for Hostel. IMO, it represents the point where horror tips over in sadistic pornography.

I can accept that he is wondering in the midnight and for some reason (I have no idea why) he meets great writers and painters from his favourite epoch but why they need the whole idea with his fiancée and wedding? when I watched (three times because every time I fall asleep ) I have a feeling that the woman has her own life, he has own so why they are together?! How they can engage? I believe that if Woody Allen gives up the idea with wedding and focus only on the writer and his huge imagination this will be a better movie.
Can you tell me why you love this movie?

Caddyshack 2

Major League 2

I don't regret seeing any films no matter how much. It is good to watch as many different films as possible. In reality almost every film (except for a few) has their flaws.

really? i thought it was actually pretty decent, was quite a surprise to me. In more recent times, i think the movie i regret seeing the most would have to be jack and jill. I have no idea what was wrong with me when i walked into the cinema to watch that.

I agree--I think the fact he could travel back in time was completely unrealistic.

I thought it was a great film and Owen Wilson's best performance yet. Fifth best film in 2011 only behind Tree of Life, Moneyball, The Descendants, and Hugo IMO.

Agreed, as well as Woody's best film in a long time. As with most of his films there has to be some awkward love story and infidelity. But Midnight in Paris focuses much more on the concept of Golden Age Thinking, Paris, and artistic integrity.

Suckerpunch. I'm just happy I wasn't the one who paid to see it.

Dark Knight....why would they do that? It wasn't even dark or bloody...even though it was trying to act like it. Joker is supposed to be an intelligent, strategic, character that loves making people laugh dying. The new joker was just a psychopathic terrorist with a bazooka.....if the original batman had to fight the new joker, he would have shot a batarang device that detects where the car goes, not punching the vehicle and hoping that he could somehow break the body with his normal, human strength.....both new batman and joker are not very bright characters and can easily be outsmarted and even outpowered by the old school ones...there's so much more flaws, but you get my point.

Yep, hated BOTH experiences but for different reasons.

I'd add...

Open Water
The Grey (both for the same reason... depressing waste of film)

Highlander 2
3000 Miles To Graceland
The Mexican
Meet The Spartans
Surveillance
Observe and Report

I wish I never saw ...

My Super Ex Girlfriend
Jersey Girl
Super 8
INCEPTION

Inception, and Super 8 - I'd love to hear the reasons why you regret those two.

Care to explain these two films? I understand the first two movies, but these movies are considered awesome.

I'm the same with Super 8, it's basically one giant homage to Close Encounters, ET, Goonies, Jurassic Park, Jaws, and has elements of Cloverfield in there too.

Bit of a rip off after the trailers looked so promising.

I wouldn't say I regretted seeing it, I just think it's forgettable.

Yes, Inception is considered to be a great film, but there are some aspects of it that I really didn't like. First off, there were what... 4 or 5 levels of a dream? I just thought that was a bit excessive. That amount of dream levels made the movie confusing. Some people will tell me that I wasn't intelligent enough to grasp the concept. However, I completely understood the movie and its message. It's just that I think they over did it slightly with all of those dream levels. Also, the end bothered me. The top was just left spinning, so you don't know if it's reality or just a dream. I felt like it wasn't done for some poetic purpose. I think the Director himself had no idea how to tie all the loose ends. It even seemed a bit forced. An example of a movie that leaves you hanging with a good ending is Shutter Island. "Live like a monster or die a good man" is the last thing the main character says. This statement makes us think... We aren't exactly sure of the main character's state of mind, and we are left to wonder and ask important questions about the movie. I think that this was the effect Inception was going for... but it just wasn't nearly as good. Overall, I think that Inception was a little overdone. It wasn't bad, but it was long and everyone kept saying how amazing it would be... and then it just didn't meet my expectations.

Have you ever heard of the concept of false awakenings?.. if you had, the levels of dream state wouln't exactly sound that ridiculous.
& just like any other sci-fi movie, some ideas have to be pushed to a whole new level. That's the whole idea of science "fiction".

& you cant exactly compare the ideas of Inception to Shutter Island, one is a mainstream sci-fi film & the other a mainstream psychological thriller.
Shutter Island had ideas we had already seen in The Number 23, Session 9, Madhouse, Ninth Configuration, The Machinist, etc..

Besides, both the films are good for their genres..

What about Super 8?
