2010 Razzie winners

It's now official. The winners of the worst that Hollywood offered in 2009 have been identified and given their Razzie honors they richly deserved.

The list of movies should not be a surprise to most. Some of the top money films of 2009 filled the lists and the only real shock is that people flocked to the films in the first place.

Starting things off is one of the films I really hated and a source of controversy

  • Worst Picture – Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen

  • Worst Director – Michael Bay, Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen


  • This beat out my pick of Land of the Lost. Still, I did mention
    I reviewed it, and still am amazed that people paid money for this crap. Then again people bought pet rocks too."


  • Worst Actor – All Three Jonas Brothers, Jonas Brothers: The 3-D Concert Experience

  • Enough said there. Though I still think the hatch job Steve Martin did on Pink Panther 2 would have killed Peter Sellers if he wasn't dead already.

  • Worst Actress – Sandra Bullock, All About Steve

  • What were the odds of Bullock taking both a Razzie and an Oscar in the same year? I thought she would be a close runner up, but I admit I was again wrong.

  • Worst Supporting Actor – Billy Ray Cyrus, Hannah Montana: The Movie

  • Worst Supporting Actress – Sienna Miller, G.I. Joe

  • Worst Screen Couple – Sandra Bullock and Bradley Cooper, All About Steve


  • Worst Remake Rip-Off Sequel – Land of the Lost

  • Did you really think this bomb of a movie wouldn't win some Razzie? I picked GI Joe in part because I thought Land of the Lost would win the worst picture award. Neither was worth the time to see, or the film it was made with.

  • Worst Pictures of the Decade – Battlefield Earth

  • Definitely a bad movie. But there were so many more that deserved this title even more. Still of the horrendous choices J-lo has to feel a bit better that she missed this award.

  • Worst Actor of the Decade – Eddie Murphy

  • Honestly I disagree with this. Given his last several films belong on Pluto along with the film of the same name. But the man has talent. Even in his horrible films he plays multiple roles, and usually at least 1 or 2 are decently done. And his work in Dreamgirls really should have raised him up a notch on the competition.

    I stand by picking Mike Meyers for destroying the legacy of Dr. Suess.

  • Worst Actress of the Decade – Paris Hilton

  • While I gave this to Mariah Carey, there is no question that even her acting does have more talent than Hilton - barely. But Hilton has a lot of money. You would think she would have paid to ensure she didn't win. Then again, maybe she paid to make sure she did, since this will be the only award she ever wins based on her "talent".

    Well I didn't do so well this year overall. I missed quite a few film predictions, though several matched my previews, reviews, and special mentions. I don't feel bad though. When it comes to this low on the scale of entertainment, they are all mired in muck.
