No contest. Star Wars Phantom Menace. Just laughably, embarrassingly crap. Still the only film I have ever paid to watch, then walked out of before the end.
Wish I had walked out before the end. The thing is I went to see it with high expectations. Haven't bothered paying to see any of the rest of the Star Wars films as a result.

Absolutely hated Vanilla Sky as well. Not even redeemed by Penelope Cruz getting them out for the lads. But I had no expectations of it and went because it was an off-the-cuff thing with some friends so doesn't count as disappointing in the same way as Phantom Menace.

Yes Phantom Menace, infinitely worse than Last Jedi - it was unrecognisable as a Star Wars movie.

Dont get the hate for Last Jedi, it was not amazing, but certainly not as bad as people say in my eyes!
Same here. I quite enjoyed it, but I'm not particularly a Star Wars geek, so apart from the main characters I don't really know the back story behind most of the people in it. I just took it at face value and it delivered a couple of hours of entertainment

The last Jedi hate is a bit over the top. I actually thought it was reasonably enjoyable.

I would actually put it on par with the Force awakens which I found fairly underwhelming. These are just brain in neutral action films for me and I think they both delivered reasonably well on that front.
