30 Bittered People Reveal The Most Disappointing Movie They Regretted Paying To Watch

by Maryjane

The most breathtaking stories can be told in film, depicting vast expanses of tremendous splendor and circumstances that exist beyond one's own mind. While many of these stories are original creations of filmmakers and screenwriters, many of them are based on pre-existing franchises that already have devoted followings and high standards.

J. R. R. Tolkien's book series, The Lord of the Rings, was turned into a fantasy trilogy that permanently reshaped the landscape of the modern genre. Such priceless material can frequently result in pure cinematic magic.

It's also impossible to dispute that the popular retelling of J. K. Rowling's Harry Potter series is a remarkable achievement in storytelling, despite the author's criticism. Even if there are many excellent adaptations, there are just as many (if not more) examples of massive cinematic failures when a production company fails to replicate the greatness of a story's particular source material. 

Several movies have disappointed audiences over the years, whether they were book-to-film translations that fell short of expectations or new entries in popular franchises that couldn't match the caliber of the best earlier movies. So Redditor u/Pitiable-Crescendo threw a question to the Reddit community regarding the most disappointing movie they've ever paid to watch, and Redditors didn't fail to deliver.

The Reddit post got more than 7k comments which show that a lot of viewers have certainly had enough.
