2019 Movies You Shouldn't Waste Your Time On

For every gripping, well-crafted piece of cinema released in a given year, it seems there must be at least one misguided, no-good slog of a film released to match it. 2019 is no exception and these are some of the worst movies of the bunch.

Overcomer is the latest effort from brothers Alex and Stephen Kendrick, purveyors of faith-based flicks such as Fireproof, Courageous, and War Room. While religious dramas haven't exactly earned a reputation for being critical darlings, Overcomer still managed to fall well below expectations, owing to everything from its clunky title to its stilted performances to its relentless proselytizing. Mark Dujsik of RogerEbert.com channeled the site's namesake in dismantling the movie for its steadfast refusal to be well, to be an actual movie. He wrote:

"There's about half a movie in Overcomer. The other half or so is a pretty half-hearted sermon. Neither half is particularly worthwhile, and the whole is cheap, cheesy, and, to put it charitably, churchy."

Variety's Nick Schager concurred, opining:

"[Overcomer is] a drama that affects sensitivity while nonetheless operating as a blunt instrument. Its one-note sermonizing should help it appeal to its target audience, but those not already in the fold will likely be left unmoved."

It's an aesthetic that has come to be expected from faith-based films, but the biggest critical burn was levied by Movie Nation's Roger Moore, who was most offended by the Kendrick brothers' failure to respect their craft. He wrote:

"There's just nothing here... Even as comfort food for true believers, Overcomer cannot overcome its myriad shortcomings."

Angel Has Fallen is the third in a series of films following the exploits of Secret Service agent Mike Banning, preceded by 2013's Olympus Has Fallen and 2016's London Has Fallen. How a third installment was warranted is anybody's guess, since neither film scored with critics or cleaned up at the box office. The series as a whole just seems to exist at this point to serve as a way to poke fun at Gerard Butler. Keep watching the video to see more movies you shouldn't waste your time on!
