I would throw in the English Patient. "I can still taste you." Yow. Critically acclaimed at the time, but was always awful. Some of the 60s series remakes like Flintstones are very awful too.

Steel as well.
And while mentioning superhero movies, the 1994 Fantastic Four.

i’d have Stranger than Fiction as his worst that i’ve seen

I like Night at the Roxbury as a mention.

Will Ferrell is so young, and hasn’t really found his comedic voice yet. His character and lines in that movie are so understated compared to the rest of his career. While so many other of his characters are some man child loosing his cool, Roxbury is a man child actually trying to be cool.

And yea it’s SNL humor but in a sense it’s more sincere characters and storyline than Talladega, which more openly embraces the goofiness, and which is why Roxbury works better in this thread

Wait, what’s not believable about some hunky 007 British…uh volcanologist, who everyone dismisses except for the lonely single mom mayor he seduces in like an afternoon? The only thing hotter than the romance is the lava

Oh!

This one might be more controversial:

Django Unchained.

I saw it in theaters and remember thinking WTF who cast Jamie Foxx? Every one of his lines seemed to fall flat, like he didn’t even know the character yet and was reading the script for the very first time.

Then I learned, Tarantino wrote the character for Will Smith, but he turned the role down so it went to Foxx instead
