43 Movies That Had Incredible Hype — But Ended Up Being Borderline Unwatchable


“The whole dancing in the streets and jazz in the bar thing was ridiculous, but that’s not what put me off from that movie. It’s not the drama that put me off either; I’ve been a Spider-Man comic book reader since childhood, so I know romance and drama is a big and important part in the Spider-Man mythos.

The thing is, the hype created by the trailers and promotional posters, sites, etc. was promising a much darker and action-packed movie. The trailers were all moody and eerie, with the whole Aunt May speech about revenge and the scenes of Peter desperately trying to get rid of the black suit, so I naturally expected a much darker film. … The final fight was awesome, I can’t deny that, but the rest of the movie was a little bit more lazily crafted. I was expecting more from that slowly building up tension that Spider-Man 2 gave us. Instead, the three-villain concept ran out of control, and things felt kind of rushed in. 

And finally, this might sound dumb, but I also expected a lot more awesome acrobatics like Spider-Man 2, Spider-Man showcasing a lot more agility and mastery of his powers than he did on previous films, but there was not much of it either.”
