Bad acting in movies

[Charmer]

It really makes me pissed off in a "why did I waste part of my life for this" kind of way, when I watch a movie that is so badly acted by basically everyone in the movie that it doesn't even make the movie funny. And also, why did someone greenlight the movie? So idiots like me will see it once?!

For example, recently I saw the supposed horror movie Cabin Fever and the movie The Taking of Beverly Hills, (with Ken Wahl). Both movies had horrendously bad acting in them which made me feel like I lost more than a few brain cells by watching them.

Sometimes, if the movie is funny when it's suppose to be scary and the acting is half-way decent, I don't feel I've wasted my time. But, darn it, put a warning on a video, DVD, or before showing a movie that tells you that Bad Acting is abundant in this movie! :tongue:

You, too, huh? Everytime I watch it, I think, this time, it will be good.......nope! I guess I have to be high to enjoy it.

So what are some movies that the acting just ruined it for you. For me it was the chronicles of narnia. Good story, horrible acting.
