Why is Bane a lobotomised moron in a wrestling mask? Who decided having Poison Ivy do a striptease from a pink gorilla costume was a good way to introduce the character? Why does this movie have Thurman, Clooney & Silverstone in it and still suck? Why does Batman carry an anti-freeze ray just in case he ever happens to meet a villain who uses ice as a weapon? Why are there rubber nipples?I can laugh at just about anything, but that one just....traumatised me.Second is 'Electra'. It stars Shannon Tweed, which should already be a warning. This one was mesmerising in it's sheer nafness. The plot, such as it is, centres around this lovable lunkhead who gets these pills that give him superhuman powers such as running in slo-mo, and tying knots at superhuman speed. He's hunted by two rubber-clad woman, led by his stepmom. Some highlights:The scene where a van is escaping which the hero wants to stop for some reason. He runs after it with his superhuman speed. Hero running in slo-mo, with muscles bouncing. Driver of van looks in mirror and looks horrified. Repeat about five times, then the hero nudges the van and knocks it over.The fight between the two henchwomen and the love interest. There is absolutely no way I can do this fight scene justice. They certainly move with a great amount of vigour, and appear hostile towards each other, but there's no way what they're doing could be described as fighting.Third is "Armageddon" It was a good action movie on the whole, but there was too much SHOUTING AT HIGH VOLUMES, gratuitous jingoism (enough with the flags in every important shot!) and explosions whenever the plot thretened to lag, usally combined with more SHOUTING AT HIGH VOLUMES! Like a whole string of climaxes with no build up to any of them.Edit: Oh yes, try this. <a href="http://www.rinkworks.com/badmovie/" target="_blank">http://www.rinkworks.com/badmovie/</a> Have a look at the reader reviews, especially 'Zone Troopers' and 'Jack Frost'.</blockquote>
