Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation has surpassed the majority of expectations so far, scoring a sublime 93% on Rotten Tomatoes and nailing the second-best opening weekend in the franchise's history. Sadly, not every movie can be quite that successful, as the diverse cast of the $2+ billion franchise are doubtless well aware. Every actor has to start somewhere and every actor takes a blatant paycheck role every now and then, but there's little denying that these 15 Mission: Impossible actors, from Ethan Hunt himself to that revolving door of love interests, would likely all prefer for these poor efforts to be quietly forgotten. In some cases the movies are bland enough that they've all but evaporated into the ether already, but others are so infamously poor that they'll endure long after the respective actor isn't around anymore, a monument to what either greed or desperation can do to just about any entertainer.
15. Kill Me Three Times (2014) - Simon Pegg
RottenTomatoes Score: 9% The Plot: In Western Australia, hitman Charlie Wolfe (Pegg) is hired to kill a beautiful woman, Alice Taylor (Alice Braga), by her husband. However, when two more assassins show up to complete the job themselves, Lucy (Teresa Palmer) and her clumsy husband Nathan (Sullivan Stapleton), things get enormously more complicated. Why It Sucks: It's another in a long line of starring vehicles for Simon Pegg which just doesn't hit the mark, and it's by far the worst of the lot. The comic actor certainly puts in plenty of effort playing against-type, but this is essentially a tedious sub-Tarantino thriller that fails to juggle comedy with its darker ambitions. Sure, it looks nice, but that's pretty much all there is to praise. The musical score is obnoxious as hell, and it all feels tired and done better elsewhere, again reinforcing Pegg's struggle to find success outside of the Cornetto trilogy and supporting roles.
