Of the 70 films I've watched this year, these 10 have been judged as the worst of the year by combining the spring, summer, and fall movie rankings and seeing who fell to the bottom. Of course, I haven't seen all the movies of this year just yet and some might fall the cracks to this list soon. The top 10 can be found tomorrow.

1. Gigli - I don't know what was worse: the awful dialogue (gobble, gobble) or pretty boy Ben Affleck trying to play a tough guy.
2. The Real Cancun - Was that really the real Cancun or some sick guy's wet dream?
3. Dumb and Dumberer: When Harry Met Lloyd - When the creators and the original stars want no part of this fiasco, that really tells you something.
4. Dreamcatcher - How could so many fine actors, and a fine author in Stephen King, been involved in such crap?
5. The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen - Like Sean Connery in the film, we're still waiting to be impressed.
6. Freddy vs. Jason - Typical slasher material leads into an awfully short "epic" battle.
7. Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle - The thing makes no sense and only serves as eye candy, presumably enough to satisfy some people but not this one.
8. Alex and Emma - While Kate Hudson is a beautiful presence on-screen, someone needs to get her some better material.
9. Hollywood Homicide - The funny thing about this buddy-cop comedy was that the film was at its best when the duo was separated.
10. Legally Blonde 2: Red, White, and Blonde - Simply changing the scenery from the first one is not the way to make a sequel.

Of the films I have seen, these are the 10 worst films of the year according to a composite ranking from 67 critics compiled by moviecitynews.com.

1. Gigli
2. Bad Boys II
3. Dreamcatcher
4. Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle
5. Dumb and Dumberer: When Harry Met Lloyd
6. The Matrix: Revolutions
7. Legally Blonde 2: Red, White, and Blonde
8. Alex and Emma
9. The Hulk
10. Daredevil

Armed with the same list, these are the 5 worst films I haven't seen yet and probably never will.

1. The Cat in the Hat
2. Boat Trip
3. From Justin to Kelly
4. Beyond Borders
5. The Life of David Gale
