Xanadu. Good soundtrack but really awful movie.
I would also rate the recent remake of Dune up there. Oh it looks great but wow does it veer off into a lot of stupid tangents that waste precious time that could have been better spent on character development. After Paul’s 15th vision of Chani I was done. He did have other visions too Mr. Villeneuve that could have been used as elements to carry the story along. Looking back on the uncut version of Dune from 1984, that movie actual did a much better job of sticking to the book. Of course it then would have been a 4 hour flick and suffered from a horrendous edit job.
