The 10 worst films of the year

1 It’s a Wonderful Afterlife

It’s a terrible film.

2 Sex and the City 2

Loved the bit where they celebrate the fact that, underneath the burkas, middle-eastern ladies are as materialistic as their American cousins.

3 The Back-Up Plan

Do you want a comedy based around Jennifer Lopez’s recent pregnancy? Thought not.

4 Leap Year

Bejaysus. Begorrah. Pass the spuds and the insulting cliches about the Irish. Sod you, Hollywood.

5 Grown Ups

The Sandler-James- Rock-Schneider comedy made an absolute fortune in Ireland. I hope you’re proud of yourselves.

6 Killers

Not another US romantic comedy in the list? Heck, there’s a dozen more we reluctantly left out.

7 Eat Pray Love

Watch. Cry. Vomit.

8 Cats and Dogs 2

Sorry? You’re making a sequel to what now?

9 The Girl Who Played with Fire/The Girl Who Kicked the Hornets’ Nest

The audience that dozed peacefully.

10 8.5 Hours

Yes, it was made for nothing by industrious Irish film-makers. But this absurd melodrama had to be seen to be believed.
