List of movies that have been considered the worst ever - List of movies that have been considered the worst ever Obviously, due to the subjective nature of "good" and "bad" judgments, there can be disagreement about what constitutes an "extremely bad movie". A movie usually garners an extremely bad reputation not merely for simply failing as drama, but failing to a degree out of all proportion to popular and critical expectation. Sometimes, excessive pre-release hype surrounding a film can build up expectations in viewers to an unrealistic degree; an example might be the Star Wars prequels, which, while performing extremely well at the box office, have caused great argument among fans of the series. And sometimes, audiences who are tiring of an overexposed celebrity will heap vilification upon a film starring that celebrity if it is.

List of movies that have been considered the greatest ever - List of movies that have been considered the greatest ever This is a partial list of films that have been regarded as the greatest ever. There is no uniform opinion as to which film is the greatest ever, but a number of films have been presented as such. Generally speaking, these tend to be films that can be said to have advanced both the art form and the technique of cinema, and are usually agreed upon by a consensus of critics and scholars to have been inordinately successful on both these grounds. Different groups have very different criteria for what is greatness, however.
