This summer sure wasn't a banner year for blockbuster movies or really cinema in general, and though the likes of Avengers: Infinity War, Incredibles 2 and Mission: Impossible - Fallout delivered smart, slick tentpole thrills, they were sadly in the distinct minority.

Many of the summer's biggest and most anticipated films served up idiocy with a side order of stupid, from cringe-inducing subplots to baffling reveals, inane character decisions and just a general lack of actual internal logic.

While not all of these films were completely sunk by their dumbest moments, each is nevertheless saddled with these ridicule-worthy moments forever more.
