Gladly in 2012, I watched more good movies (well, middling and mediocre movies) than out right bad ones. But there were a fair share of horrendous films that made me wonder, “what the hell were they thinking?”. I sat through these movies so you didn’t have to (it’s the downside of the job) but there were plenty times that I wish I didn’t. At least one of these movies is interesting failure but I still consider them a bad time at the movie theater. Consider this list as a “stay away from these movies” list. If you missed it, check out my most disappointing and surprising movies of 2012. Now onto the list...

A brave cast including Hanks, Halle Berry, Hugo Weaving, Jim Broadbent, Hugh Grant, James D’Arcy and more help to help the errant threads together and it’s all overseen by the impossibly sure hand of its trio of directors."
Colton of The Daily Rotation wrote, "David Mitchell’s 2004 novel Cloud Atlas, once deemed “unfilmable”, has been ambitiously translated onto the screen by the directing trio of Run Lola Run director Tom Tykwer and the Wachowskis. Leave it to the Wachowskis, the visionary directors of The Matrix and V For Vendetta, to take on the adaptation of a structurally complex novel and transform it into a film that’s visceral in its filmmaking approach and mesmerizingly beautiful. The film manages to be as complex as its original source, but feels more lively and epic."
this should be re titled as 10 mediocre movies that could have been better. because several of them had good potential and considerably not really bad as all. definitely not really the 10 worst im sure there are more than this.
