The choices for the poll were made with the help of Total Film magazine so, like, if you think the seven titles there all rock - write to them, not me.
I'm choosing Days Of Thunder as one of the blandest sport movies around. Driven is pretty bad, too, but wasting Robert Duvall makes Days much more offending than it.

My vote is for the remake of Rollerball. It was soooooooooooooooooo horrible.  I struggled to get through it. I'm not even sure if I even made it to the end. |

As I've only seen three of these movies, once again my lame-o-meter has spared me from seeing too many crap movies, I'm gonna go with DRIVEN, which I happened to catch on cable one night. DAYS OF THUNDER was bad, and BAGGER VANCE was pretty boring, but DRIVEN made me want to throw things at the screen.  |

I'm with Phoenix on this one, Rollerball was just...awful.  |

I was interested in seeing the remake of ROLLERBALL, as I'd enjoyed the original, but when all the bad reviews came out, I decided to pass on it. Guess I made the right choice.  |

I haven't seen the remake of Rollerball, either. Not a single good review of it anywhere makes you kind of suspicious, huh? Driven had the same disadvantage, but I tend to watch all Sly's movies, so I rented it anyway; it sure is bad but not as head-achingly terrible as Avenging Angelo.  |

My friend and I were discussing this at work (spawned from this website - thanks guys for giving us a chance not to work!) and while she agreed the Rollerball remake was horrible, she said another terrible one was "Tin Cup." I am no golf fan, so this was def another one I agree with. Kevin Costner and golf? UGH!

I actually thought TIN CUP wasn't bad at all. I'm no golf fan, but I found the movie entertaining. Mind you, I didn't rush out and buy the DVD, but I enjoyed it.
The movies from this list that I've actually seen were far worse, IMHO.

Legend of Bagger Vance probably is a worse golf movie - haven't seen it so I can't say it is/is not. I still won't ever say I enjoyed Tin Cup, but it does have a fan base (my 45 year-old mom included). I think it's worse than one movie on the list though: The Cutting Edge! I loved that movie when I was a pre-teen.  Haven't seen it since though. |

Tin Cup, on the other hand, bored me quite a lot. I know it has its fan base - and it got some good reviews - but I can't see a reason for it. I rented it for Rene Russo mainly but even this nice girl was wasted there. For Love Of The Game is a better flick than Tin Cup, in my opinion. |
