On March 3, in an untelevised ceremony, the the Golden Raspberry Awards
aka The Razzies will "honor" the films that fell
far short of their Oscar-nominated counterparts.
'Fifty Shades Darker,' 'Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales'
and 'Transformers: The Last Knight' may not bask in the glow of critical acclaim
like 'Call Me By Your Name' and 'The Shape of Water,'
but on Razzie-night they still get to shine. I mean, kind of.
The Hollywood Reporter critic Frank Scheck has heroically dissected
the Razzie-nominated films and made his picks for who deserves to win.
Spoiler alert: fans of 'The Emoji Movie' should take a leaf out of this guy's book
because the movie is Scheck's pick in several categories,
including Worst Screen Combo, Director, and Screenplay.
'The Mummy,' 'Baywatch,' 'Fifty Shades Darker,' 'Transformers: The Last Night'
and 'The Emoji Movie' are all battling for worst picture, a category that
Scheck calls "as always...fiercely competitive." However, our critic
concludes that in the end, the winner should be obvious: 'The Emoji Movie.'
He says. "After all, how can you deny a film featuring Poop as a main character?"
Katherine Heigl in 'Unforgettable,' Dakota Johnson's second sexy outing
in 'Fifty Shades Darker,' Jennifer Lawrence's turn in 'mother!,'
Tyler Perry in 'Boo! 2: A Madea Halloween' and Emma Watson's performance
in 'The Circle' are all shortlisted in the worst actress category.
Writes our reviewer, "Jennifer Lawrence, a critic's darling, seems
out of place here, even if her film proved wildly polarizing. It could be
argued that Perry's placement in the category is a bit of a cheat,
although I'm certainly not going to make that case. Some maintain that
Watson was robbed by not being dually nominated for her off-key singing
in 'Beauty and the Beast.' Johnson is truly terrible in 'Fifty Shades,' but she's
also the only reason it's worth watching. By process of elimination,
then, the winner should be Heigl, if only for her uncanny channeling
of Ivanka Trump in the forgettable 'Unforgettable.'"
Making dreaded appearances in the category for worst actor are
Zac Efron for 'Baywatch,' Tom Cruise for 'The Mummy,'
Johnny Depp for 'Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales,'
Jamie Dornan for 'Fifty Shades Darker' and poor Mark Wahlberg with a
double whammy nomination for 'Daddy's Home 2' and
'Transformers: The Last Knight.' Don't shed too many tears for Wahlberg just
yet, though, as Scheck actually praises the actor, writing,
"...while Wahlberg was working with terrible material in both films for which he's
nominated, he wasn't actually that bad in either." Scheck also goes somewhat
easy on his winner pick, musing, "Zac Efron, who's proved
that he can be a good actor when he keeps his shirt on, takes the prize."
Laments our critic, "This one's tough. 'Boo! 2,' 'Fifty Shades Darker' and
'Transformers: The Last Knight' were exactly as bad as expected.
The two genuine disappointments were 'Baywatch,' which held the
possibility of at least being mindless fun, and 'The Mummy,'
which was expected to launch a new horror franchise for Universal based
on its legendary catalogue — and failed miserably." In the end though?
'Baywatch' might need some mouth to mouth resuscitation as Scheck
opines that it "deserves to win for frittering away the most job possibilities in Hollywood."
So what do you think of Frank Scheck's picks?
Do you agree with his take or do you think other films should be "honored" instead?
