Bad Movies We Love: Twilight

Posted on November 16, 2011 by | Leave a comment

I’m clinically unashamed most of the time, but today I come to you with a confession worthy of St. Augustine or at least Diane Keaton : Twilight may be the ultimate Bad Movie We Love. It is surely bad, as it looks and acts like the longest, moodiest Evanescence video of all time, but it’s also hard to resist. It’s neither pretentious nor overconfident. It’s silly. Bella Swan is hot for a shock-white ghoul with darting pupils and a social disorder. Celebrate.

Bad Movies We Love: Billy Madison

Posted on November 9, 2011 by | Leave a comment

I won’t see Adam Sandler’s new joint Jack and Jill because I’m a thinking organism, but my defiance is worthless: I’ve already watched Billy Madison enough times to line Opera Man’s pockets with box office dollars for life. He already wins. The mid ’90s marked a renaissance in vulgar, idiotic kid comedies ( Dumb and Dumber , Tommy Boy , etc), and Sandler’s breakthrough Billy Madison — which barely earned back its $20 million budget — remains the best of the bunch. Let’s jump back in time and yell “O’Doyle rules!” at this loud old gem.

Bad Movies We Love: Hocus Pocus

Posted on November 2, 2011 by | Leave a comment

Whip up a cauldron of haterade, because this week’s Bad Movie We Love is a foray into children’s Halloween cinema. It’s a bargain bin Addams Family ripoff with spooky gusts of wind beneath its wings. It’s Hocus Pocus , my pretties, Disney’s perennial Halloween favorite for people who were exactly 7 in 1993. (Present!) We’ve got yer veteran character actresses in hag attire, a couple of winning child stars, and two songs that should render you songless until Thanksgiving. No, this is not a prequel to Sex and the City 2 .

Bad Movies We Love: New York Minute

Posted on October 19, 2011 by | Leave a comment

You’ve never seen an Olsen twins movie, have you? Have you ? You’ve never twisted your hair into braids like Hailee Steinfeld and discovered How the West was Fun or booked a trip to the UK for Winning London . You’ve never personally discovered that, indeed, It Takes Two . God. Now that you’ve admitted you have nothing in common with true cinéastes, allow me to educate you: Today we’re visiting the quaint Manhattan of New York Minute , the Olsens’ 2004 big-screen bomb costarring more than a few people you respect. Since their sister Elizabeth is defying cult order in Martha Marcy May Marlene this week, the least we can do is honor the original Olsens for their enslaved followers. These zealots prefer their Kool-Aid straight-up.

Bad Movies We Love: Father of the Bride Part II

Posted on October 12, 2011 by | Leave a comment

A friend of mine once explained to me her chief problem with movies: “I don’t like when movies have conflicts. Can’t we just hang out with the characters and make jokes and have fun? It’s nicer that way.” This week’s Bad Movie We Love answers that harebrained prayer with a conflict-free plot, a smiley disposition from beginning to end, and a huge helping of total irrelevance. It’s the 1995 sequel Father of the Bride Part II starring The Big Year ‘s lead amigo Steve Martin, Diane Keaton, and a company of stress-free actors. Father of the Bride Part II is the cinematic equivalent of vanilla ice cream with butterscotch syrup: old-fashioned, tasty, and fit for consumption on a Sunday afternoon with your grandparents. Put in your dentures and watch the sedatest version of a “wild and crazy guy” you’ll ever see.

Bad Movies We Love: The Wiz

Happy belated birthday to Michael Jackson, who would’ve turned 53 on Tuesday like his Oscars date Madonna did a couple weeks ago . May Michael thrive in heaven’s Neverland where the PYT s go on forever. Since we haven’t toasted MJ yet, why not revisit the Baddest Movie We Love of 1978, The Wiz ? Wait, I know why: Because we hate dancing and fun. Wait. No. Reverse that! Let’s strap on our flyest ruby slippers and ease on down the road!

Bad Movies We Love: Teaching Mrs. Tingle

Posted on August 24, 2011 by | Leave a comment

I’m afraid of Don’t Be Afraid of the Dark , but for silly reasons. It has something to do with the title, which sounds like either an eerie whisper at Neverland Ranch or a creepy Paul Anka hit, and the track record of Ms. Katie Holmes, who first tried to terrify us in 1999’s hyper-dorky Teaching Mrs. Tingle . You’d think Scream maestro Kevin Williamson would want to explore a darker teen fantasy than “getting back at a mean teacher,” but no — this movie is the horror equivalent of the Nickelodeon Takes Over Your School sweepstakes. Your history instructor is getting slimed! With her own blood! Sweet!

Bad Movies We Love: Black Swan

Posted on July 21, 2011 by | Leave a comment

I don’t love Black Swan . I barely even enjoy it! I barely even get what there is to enjoy. It boasts the hammiest dialogue of the past Oscar season? It’s the most transparent psychodrama in film history? It can’t establish a tone, a fully believable character, or consistency because it resorts to camp at every turn? I just don’t know. But if Friends With Benefits star Mila Kunis ever starred in a Bad Movie We Love, it’s this. (Sorry, Krippendorf’s Tribe — you’re just bad.) There’s an argument for its inclusion in our weekly feature, and reservations aside, I’m picking out five utterly bizarre instances in Black Swan that justify that inclusion. I will now recite them diplomatically!

Bad Movies We Love: Orange County

Posted on July 13, 2011 by | Leave a comment

The wranglers of Movieline’s Bad Movies We Love (me and me alone) always dredge up dismissible teen comedies from the early 2000s, in case you haven’t noticed. What’s with them (me)? Wait, I know: Those movies are bad and we (I) love them. Yes! Right! On that note, say hello to Orange County , the breakout vehicle for Movieline pal and Lucky star Colin Hanks, who holds together this funny but aimless romp with the help of Jack Black, a thrilling supporting cast, and a botched Beatles haircut.

Bad Movies We Love: Jennifer Aniston in Camp Cucamonga

Posted on July 6, 2011 by | Leave a comment

Leave it to Jennifer Aniston, lovable TV star-turned- Horrible Boss , to introduce a new frontier on Bad Movies We Love: the lovable, horrible TV movie. Three cheers for network budgets and forgettable scripting! Low-five! This week’s selection is the summer camp non-classic Camp Cucamonga , which features an unphotogenic cavalcade of NBC stars (Candace Cameron! John Ratzenburger! Jaleel White!), Wonder Years cast members for coming-of-age credibility (Danica McKellar! Josh Saviano! Not Fred Savage!), and so much of Jennifer Aniston’s old nose that she looks like… an unpolished, Degrassi version of Jennifer Aniston. Cute!
