Perfect for you if...

  • You love film criticism that's as entertaining as it is honest, and you'd rather read a brilliant takedown than sit through the actual bad movie.
  • You appreciate sharp writing and dark humour, and you find someone eviscerate a terrible film endlessly satisfying.
  • You're curious about cinema but want permission to hate the films everyone else pretends to enjoy.

Maybe not for you if...

  • You're sensitive to spoilers or plan to watch these films yourself and don't want Ebert's opinions clouding your judgment.
  • You prefer positive film recommendations and find relentless criticism draining rather than entertaining.
  • You expect plot summaries or traditional reviews; this is purely Ebert at his most ruthless and funny.

About this book

This collection continues Roger Ebert's tradition of reviewing poorly-made films, following his previous bestselling volumes *I Hated, Hated, Hated This Movie* and *Your Movie Sucks*. The book gathers more than 200 of his reviews from 2006 onward in which he assigned films two stars or fewer. Ebert is known for fair-minded, well-written film criticism, and demonstrates his sharp humor when critiquing bad movies. The collection includes his one-star review of *Your Highness*, which he describes as juvenile and the work of 11-year-old boys obsessed with dungeons, dragons, warrior women, and crude humor. Another featured review is his one-star assessment of *Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen*, which he calls "a horrible experience of unbearable length, briefly punctuated by three or four amusing moments." This review inspired the book's title. The collection appeals to movie enthusiasts and humor readers interested in examining films of notably poor quality.
