5 worst Superhero movies of the 21st Cenury

Hiya Folks, me again, your friendly neighbourhood islander with another list orientated blog post. So today I decided to name (and shame) the top 5 worst films of the 21st century! 5. Dragonball Z (2009) Showcasing the infamous anime adventure series in a live cinema format where Goku and friends are about to take on Evil Alien Dictator/ Underworld ruler, Piccolo. Not even suitable to Stoners, especially under the influence. 4. Elektra (2005) A not-so-great spinoff of Marvel's not-so-great original, Daredevil. Jenifer Garner once again reprises her role has Elektra, daughter of former mob boss and right hand man of the Kingpin, Nikolas Natchios. Elektra somehow escaped death at the hands of BullsEye in the original film, Daredevil, and now continues her newly found life as an assassin for hire. Crap, absolute crap... 3. Catwoman (2004) Perhaps one of Batman's most iconic villains. Catwoman was deemed to be one of the earliest sex symbols in the golden age of Comics and perhaps the Batman's most significant of love interests. The relationship between the Batman and Catwoman is perhaps one of the longest and most thought provoking interactions in the history of comic books. You pretty much won't see any of that in this movie. One plus point, Halle Berry is in leather.... 2. Hulk (2003) The Incredible Hulk is definitely Marvel's most powerful and mightiest superhero/ anti-hero. This character has gone toe to toe with the universes most evil villains and highly powerful superheroes such as Thor, Iron Man, The Fantastic Four, The Inhumans.... and pretty much won. He even took on Superman and controversially lost in the infamous Marvel vs DC. Ang Lee and Eric Bana pretty much ruined the above paragraph in over two and half hours. Put it this way, had it not been for the movie poster, I thought i was watching a Shrek sequel. 1. Ghost Rider 2: The Spirit of Vengeance (2012) And we have a winner! This movie was so bad that I paid R22 to see it... needless to say, I would like my money back. Nicolas Cage reprised his role as Johnny Blaze in the sequel which one can safely say was much darker than it's original. The Director had the audacity to claim it was as dark as the rebooted Batman series. Dark yes... thought provoking, cinematography, casting and script overall... NO. I would not even consider taking an ex or perhaps your mortal enemy bound by blood to see this one. This is perhaps Cage's worst film to date and certainly does not do justice to the Ghost Rider character nor the Marvel Knight's franchise overall. Hopefully the Director's of these films will not do it again, better yet trade their day jobs for something more suitable such as opening up a health spa or a Daycare facility.
