The 6 Worst Movies Ever, According To Rotten Tomatoes
Most filmmakers hope their work will go down as one of the best of all time. The problem? Not everyone feels the same way as the ones behind the films. In fact, some people aren’t afraid to share their views with the rest of the world, regardless of what they are.
The 6 worst movies ever, according to Rotten Tomatoes, go to show just how harsh some people can be with their reviews. While they might be someone’s favorite films of all time, it appears the rest of the internet disagrees - and the numbers are quite often hard to avoid.
6. Sugarbabies: Baby Geniuses somehow did worse than the original
1999 was an incredible year at the movies, but that didn’t mean everything was an instant success. ‘Baby Geniuses’ was one that seemed to rub people the wrong way, but that didn’t stop them from forging on with a sequel several years later. 2004 was another strong year for films, but ‘Sugarbabies: Baby Geniuses’ stood out for all the wrong reasons. Adult performances teamed with crude jokes and everything in between didn’t help these toddlers trying to take down a media mogul. In fact, they did nothing but add toward its 0% Rotten Tomatoes rating.
5. 2002’s Pinocchio didn’t sit well when the titular character became a grown man
Have no fear; we’re not talking about the 1940 Disney classic of Guillermo del Toro’s 2022 addition to the game. Instead, we need to go all the way back to 2002 to see one of the worst movies ever, with a Rotten Tomatoes rating of 0%. Hot off the back of ‘Life is Beautiful’ came a project that should have been axed before it ever saw the light of day. Of course, the tale of a puppet who wants to be a real boy is a heartwarming story most of the time. When it’s a grown man? It hits a little differently.


4. Gotti might be John Travolta’s most-panned movie of all time
Just because the movie had John Travolta didn’t mean that ‘Gotti’ was about to win over any audiences. Coming in with yet another 0% rating on Rotten Tomatoes is none other than a crime biopic that seemed to take every good filmmaking decision and do the opposite. While Travolta has plenty of movies that have more than made up for this downfall, it’s hard for many to look past the failure that was ‘Gotti.’
3. A Thousand Words saw Eddie Murphy lose his voice for the movie
Being such a comedy genius in so many of his previous movies was why so many were surprised that ‘A Thousand Words’ did so poorly with reviews. With Eddie Murphy at the helm, it seemed to have everything it needed to thrive. That was until they made the ultimate mistake: taking away the star’s voice. A rating on Rotten Tomatoes of 0% saw the film being accused of stealing ideas, lacking any comedy or story, and becoming one of the greatest flops that the world has ever seen on the big screen.
2. One Missed Call is ranked as the worst horror movie ever
While it might not be the worst movie ever, according to Rotten Tomatoes, it does have ‘One Missed Call’ down as the worst horror film. Scoring 0% is one thing, but having a movie that isn’t even so bad it’s funny is another. It cost $20 million to make and follows a cell phone that ends people’s lives in a film that takes itself far too seriously for fans to enjoy. That’s before even getting to all the flaws found throughout ‘One Missed Call.’


1. Ballistic: Eck vs. Sever is ranked as Rotten Tomatoes’ worst film ever made
If you go to Rotten Tomatoes for your movie reviews, you might have seen ‘Ballistic: Eck vs. Sever’ on more than a few lists - and for all the wrong reasons. It’s deemed to be the worst film ever made, with the embarrassing scenes doing nothing but get the audience to hide behind the couch for all the wrong reasons. If you want something that’s so bad it’s good, you might not want to watch ‘Ballistic: Eck vs. Sever.’
When it comes to the worst movies ever, according to Rotten Tomatoes, it seems there’s no shortage of genres and disasters that have hit the big screen. While some movies can be so bad they’re good, others can be so bad they’re the worst films that have ever been made.
