It's Not That Bad

There was a time when airplane movies were all the rage, the threat of nuclear missiles was everywhere and action films were the dominant force at the box office. That time was called the 80’s. 1996…not so much. Still, that doesn’t mean it was going to scale down on the explosions. Time to put $20 down and see if Broken Arrow is not that bad.

When you think of Disney movies, you tend to think of animated tales featuring talking animals, wonderful songs and tales that stand the test of time. In 1979, Disney also meant laser battles, killer robots that would spin blade your insides out, and endings that found you in literal hell. Fun!

There is a history of knock off products being created and sold as being just like the real thing. Toys, purses, fast food franchises…nothing is safe from being copied and passed off in foreign markets. The same thing can happen in movies too, and in 1998, North America made their own monster movie. Genuine or cheap knock off? You decide as we look to see if Godzilla is not that bad. www.notthatba...

High school can be a weird time in a teen’s life. Your voice goes through changes, you start growing hair where there didn’t used to be any, and you all of a sudden realize that you have a strange habit of howling at the moon. Okay, maybe not every teen…but if you’re Michael J Fox, most definitely. Luckily, we’re here to witness it all because Teen Wolf is not that bad. www.notthatbadcast.com Face...

In the game Oregon Trail, perhaps the most memorable end is when your character dies of dysentery. That seems like a walk in the park to everything listed or described in this film, making me wonder if it’s less a fictional tale and more a public service announcement that there are in fact a million ways to die in the west. Either way, we’re here to prove to you that the movie is not that bad. www...

If someone wakes you up before you’re ready to get up, you’d be a little mad. Now imagine that you’re woken up 89 years before you’re ready and they don’t even have the decency to have a cup of coffee waiting for you. Pretty maddening, right? Probably about as egregious as the critics because Passengers is not that bad. www.notthatbadcast.com Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/notthatbadcast Soci...

As a general rule of thumb, most superhero movies from 2008 and onward have been pretty good. Movies B.I.M. (before Iron Man)…not so much.

Every now and then, a year in film comes along and provides us with not just great fantastical tales of derring-do, with more than simple human tales of perseverance and love. No, sometimes a year of film can serve us a 90 minute heaping dose of pain, misery and loss of feelings in our extremities. 2004 was just that year, and we're here to tell you which films brought both great joy and great suf...

Take a former professional wrestler, pair him with a woman who played a professional wrestler, then stick them in the middle of Colombia in a non-wrestling movie. Bold move?

According to Collins Dictionary, a definition for zero is the point from which positive or negative quantities are reckoned. But, can any positive quantities be reckoned from a film with a 0% Tomatometer?
