10 Most Hated Movie Characters In Recent History

10. Dodge Landon- Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes

The recent Planet of the Apes trilogy was a surprisingly fantastic collection of films and one of the things that they did extremely well was blur the lines of whose side the audience should be on. Those lines were a lot more distinct however when it came to Harry Potter alum Tom Felton's Dodge Landon.

In the film Felton plays a young man working at his father's monkey sanctuary who needlessly and consistently berates and abuses the primate residents. Felton, perhaps still playing within type after his years as Draco Malfoy, is deeply and understandably dislikeable as a cruel and bafflingly angry man who has no business working in a place looking after creatures he so obviously hates.

When it becomes apparent there is something different about Caesar upon his arrival, as is the classic bully move, Dodge zeros in on him as the main target for his cruelty and abuse. Dodge Landon does not have a great deal of screen-time in the film but even with such a short window, he managed to burn himself as a figure of hatred into the minds of film audiences who no doubt erupted in cheers collectively when he finally got what he deserved.
