10 Movies That Actually Deserve 0% Rating on Rotten Tomatoes
10. The Last Days of American Crime (2020)
This Netflix original was released during the height of 2020 and was immediately decimated by critics. At nearly two and a half hours long, it was described as "offensive, bloated, and derivative." It holds a 0% for being a "grindy, joyless experience" that many critics felt was a waste of a potentially interesting sci-fi premise.
9. A Thousand Words (2012)
Eddie Murphy plays a man who discovers he only has 1,000 words left to speak before he dies. Critics felt the premise was a "stale sitcom stretched too thin" and that Murphy’s legendary comic energy was completely wasted by a script that, quite literally, forced him to stop talking.
8. One Missed Call (2008)
This J-horror remake is often cited as the film that "killed" the American obsession with Japanese horror adaptations. Critics called it "undone by bland performances and shopworn shocks," offering absolutely nothing new to the genre. With 80 negative reviews, it is one of the most-reviewed 0% movies in history.
7. Left Behind (2014)
Nicolas Cage has made some masterpieces, but this 2014 adaptation of the religious book series is not one of them. Critics described it as "dull" and "cheaply made," even by the standards of low-budget faith-based cinema. Cage’s intensity wasn't enough to save a film that many felt felt more like a "TV pilot that failed" than a feature film.
6. Pinocchio (2002)
Roberto Benigni’s live-action Pinocchio is widely considered one of the most "uncomfortably weird" misfires in history. Seeing a 50-year-old man play a wooden puppet boy was a bridge too far for critics, who labeled the English-dubbed version a "creepy, poorly-made vanity project."
5. London Fields (2018)
Despite an eclectic cast (Amber Heard, Billy Bob Thornton, and a Johnny Depp cameo), this neo-noir mystery was a total "train wreck." Between a chaotic production and a script that panned its own beloved source material, critics noted it was "of interest only to the morbidly curious." It holds a perfect 0% after 35 reviews.
4. Ballistic: Ecks vs. Sever (2002)
For over two decades, this has been the "top-ranked" worst movie on Rotten Tomatoes with over 115 negative reviews and zero positives. It is famously "startlingly inept," offering wall-to-wall explosions without a single ounce of style or a coherent plot. It remains the benchmark for what a 0% movie looks like.
3. Gotti (2018)
John Travolta’s passion project about the infamous mob boss is the gold standard for 0% disasters. It became a meme for its confusing timelines, bizarre music choices (like Pitbull songs in a period piece), and "laughable dialogue." It is one of the few movies that is so spectacularly bad it has developed a "so-bad-it's-good" cult following.
2. Armor (2024)
Stallone has had a difficult run recently; Armor preceded Alarum with its own 0% disaster. Panned for a "painfully generic script" and flat performances, it currently sits as a "stale" relic that failed to provide even basic action thrills. It’s the kind of movie that critics feel "exists only to fill a streaming tile."
1. Alarum (2025)
Released late last year, this Sylvester Stallone action-thriller became an instant member of the "Zero Club." Critics described it as a "sluggish, generic mess" with CGI so poor it looked unfinished. While Stallone is a legend, this film was panned as a "paycheck movie" that offered absolutely nothing new to the genre, leaving both critics and audiences completely cold.
