A good mate of mine is known for choosing shite films so i could give you a whole list!
Top would have to be Dreamcatchers, the film based on the Stephen King novel, oh may god what a pile of smelly mammoth poo that film was!
The Postman with Kevin Costner a very close second!
Peace and love, Danny J

I would have to say Closer was the worst film I've seen in the last year. I was so slow and people actually walked out half way through the film!

Citizen Kane is terrific! You CRAZY! 
The worst movie I've ever had to sit through was Brown Bunny. This was a low-budget indie that was about as pretentiously boring and stupid as they get. The gimmick was that Chloe Sevegny (sp?), who was dating the director/star at the time, gives him real oral sex on camera in one scene. So it was definitely going to get an audience just for that, but the movie itself was so unspeakably awful that I forced my roommate to take it back to the video store that same evening and rent something GOOD in penance. I'm still angry at him for making me watch it.
As for a movie most people seemed to love but I really disliked, that would be Gladiator. I honestly didn't see what was so great about it. I thought the plot was ludicrous, the action scenes undecipherable and the history out-and-out infuriatingly wrong.

While in the Czech Republic, owing to an unfortunate mistranslation of titles, we accidentally rented "The Piano Teacher" instead of "The Pianist" (Both translated in such a similar way that it was a Czech friend who made the mistake). The only thing that makes the experience ok is that we all obviously hated it, but we also all still thought it had won an oscar and went on for some time trying to discuss the merits and how interesting the film was, when we all quite clearly thought it was crap and had laughed through half of it. When I found out the mistake it was one of the funniest thhings I think I've ever had happen, which makes up for sitting through the movie.

As a fan of zombie flicks, i'd have to say I was the most disappointed leaving a theater after seeing Romero's Land of the Dead last year. I went in with high hopes and left with crushed dreams. Haha.
Butterfly Effect was terrible

I think you're all being a little hard on good films (except the latest Romero, which I admit I haven't seen) I know they've been years with the Golden Turkey awards, but the worst films I've ever seen are the Creeping Terror, where a walking duvet, whose tennis shoes are sticking out from the bottom of it, starts killing peope; the Two Headed Thing which I saw in a rundown cinema in Bandung and the Indonesian censor had cut out the worst bits; and of course, the immortal Wild Women of Wonga.
For most over-rated film, I would put Collateral Damage (Tom Cruise can't play a villain for toffee),The Man who wasn't There (The Cohen Brothers at their most boring - a great pity, because they've made some great movies) and Bertolucci's The Last Emperor (some fine set-pieces, but loses direction and certainly didn't deserve the shower of Oscars that it got)

More along the Tom Cruise is bad line ....
War of the Worlds was a really annoying movie. It was the teaming of Dakota Fanning with Tom Cruise that did it I think. They're both just so obnoxious to watch.

I have walked out on one movie - Crash (the David Cronenberg one). That whole suspension of disbelief thing went a bit too far.
But, "Dude, Where's My Car?" left me wanting a refund for the 2 hours of my life I wasted watching it.

Waterworld was pretty bad, but there are so many to choose from...

I love horror movies. but maybe I'm getting soft at the ripe old age of 20, because the only movie I have ever walked out on was The Hills Have Eyes. we made it to the part where the guy was being burned alive and his daughter was sleeping and there were mutants hovering over her and touching her. I didn't want to know what came next, so we left. so that was probably the worst I've seen.
that said, zombie movies are amazing. I have to say I loved every one of Romero's movies that I've seen (which isn't that many).

There's plenty of bad movies out there, but the one highly popular movie that I really disliked was "Good Will Hunting".
So boring that I could never watch it all the way through. And I tried several times due to it being forever played on United Airlines.
Then again, I find many of Tom Cruise's movies very watchable. He should have gotten an Oscar for Rain Man instead of Dustin Hoffman.
