I didn't enjoy the movie called The Boy Downstairs. I found the plot to be slow and the overall movie to be unsatisfying.

To the point where you wondered where did they get these actors and actresses from or Why is the story line so bad?
As a lover of action movies, anything memoir or life story movie is mostly boring. I prefer to read the worst book than to be bored down with a boring movie

Dinner With Andre - I have given this multiple chances and I still can't stand it. It has these great reviews but I can't understand for the life of me why. This is probably the most boring movie I have ever seen. I find it a total waste of time.

Boring movies are a reason many will check the trailer to judge if it's interesting or not. Movies in series have also earned a market as majority use suspense to connect the events.

As a kid I had watched Hitchcock's 'Rear Window' and thought it awfully boring. Although I don't feel it's that bad a movie when I had to rewatch it a few years ago.

Star wars series also I felt to be mostly boring. Didn't like all the fancy lightsabers or desert settings.

I absolutely despise Age of Innocence and the English Patient. Both these movies are so long, and if you can, don't waste your time on them like i did.

I once rented out a movie called The Crazy Eights with my cousins. It was supposed to be a horror movie but everyone was laughing through the 20 minutes we managed to watch of it. The actors were reacting and flinching to music sound effects, someone broke a whole femur because of mishap on a 10cm stair... We were making jokes about the director washing dishes in the background because we could hear it so clearly and it wasn't even part of the movie. It was so funny but we simply could not get even halfway through it hahaha...

The Life of Pi movie bored me nearly to death🙈. I know some might not agree with me though but truly, I couldn't understand why people made like that was the movie of the century. I didn't even try the book afterwards.

I've seen quite a few boring movies. The last one I saw was the recently released Batman movie. I nearly dozed off at the cinema.
