Lt. Dans Worst Movies Of 2007

1. Balls Of Fury-This movie is just another example that the writers strike didn't start soon enough . It's a sad parody of Enter The Dragon , only this time its ping pong paddles instead of kung-fu . This movies only redeeming quality is Christopher Walken who could make a rectal examination funny . 2. Live Free or Die Hard - I like to think repetition breeds weakness , obviously Bruce Willis wasn't thinking about his career when he signed on for this film . I mean yeah it had action , and yeah it had some funny punch lines , but when you get right down to it the plot is basically the same . After seeing all three films i still can't understand why terrorist would be interested in a lone beat cop from New York . 3. Dragon Wars - Written and directed by Hyung-rae Shim this is another one of those eastern tales put to cinema for western audiences . It's a tale of love , sacrifice , courage , honour , and oh yes a poorly written script . The story line moved like a haiku ( you know those poems that don't rhyme) . During the film i found more entertainment counting the number of unpoped kernels in my popcorn bag than trying to decipher what was happening in the film . 4. Transformers - I have a special place in my bowels for this franchise . Directed by Michael Bay and based on the cartoon of the 80's this film pits two warring factions of sentient robots whose conflict encompasses Earth . That's it ! Just like the 80's cartoon Hollywood has made a film so dumbed down that only a five year old could follow it . In my opinion Transformers is just a cheap bastardised American version of Robotech .
