Show us your ONE STAR films

These are the films you've ABSOLUTELY HATED (for one reason or another). We're
not talking merely not liking or find troubling, but rather DETESTED.
I've been watching films seriously for well over 40 yrs. and rated over 2200 films and can honestly say
my list is rather small. (I tend to generally avoid poorly reviewed films)
Basic Instinct 2 ('06) (had to see Sharon)
Better Than Chocolate ('99) (totally over the top)
The Boondock Saints ('99) (found preposterous)
Fight Club ('99) (turned off after 30 min., could'nt identify w/ char.)
The Life Aquatic With Steve Zissou ('04) (totally bored, unfunny)
Man Bites Dog ('92) (For.) (reprehensible, 'nuff said)
Moulin Rouge ('01) (the music turned me off and boredom)
Ping Pong Playa ('07) (found juvinile)
Raising Cain ('92)
The Science Of Sleep ('05) (have a problem w/dream seq.)
Snake Eyes ('98)
Ten 'til Noon ('05)
Waitress ('07
What About Bob ('91) (know someone just like Murray character, unfortun.))
