10 Actors Who Publicly Hated Their Own Films

4. Michelle Pfeiffer - Grease 2

The only person on this list to outright use the word "hate" to describe their feelings on one of their own films, Michelle Pfeiffer doesn't mince her words when she talks down the least favourite movie of hers. That film is Grease 2, the almost-forgotten second in the enduringly popular Grease franchise, and a follow-up that you've never seen, which probably no one you know has ever seen, and which Michelle Pfeiffer wishes she'd never seen. Though Pfeiffer got good notices in her first starring role, she's never looked back fondly on the experience of making the Grease sequel, calling her performance in it "embarrassing". Her words reserved for the film are harsher, though - in a 2007 interview, Pfeiffer put her agreeing to star in it in the first place down as being young and "not knowing any better". And in case anyone hadn't caught the drift of what she was getting at, Pfeiffer also said in the same interview: "I hated that film with a vengeance and could not believe how bad it was". So that clears that up.
