10 Brilliant Scenes in Otherwise Excrutiatingly Awful Movies

Ever sat in a terrible movie and found one scene much better than the rest of the film? We collect ten of the most notable moments.

You never want a movie to be bad. Even if it€™s the latest Michael Bay helmed explosion fest, you deep down hope that against all logic the film will end up a layered experience that will leave you speechless. Sadly, it seems many of those tasked with making films are unable to create something worthy of your time and money; for every absolute classic there are ten movies where you question their existence. However, the occasional film will come along that, despite being for the most part completely appalling, contains one standout scene. A moment that seems to betray the rest or the film by being something truly special; a funny scene in an all too serious film, emotion coming from a film seemingly devoid of relatability or a moment so awesome it justifies all the lacklustre material that has come before. When compiling this list, I wasn€™t looking for the worst films of all time; those ones have no redeemable moments. These are films, bland for whatever reason, that have one particular scene that is considerably better than the rest of the final product. So follow the link and let us give you ten examples of where a poor film has managed to produce one completely amazing scene that transcends the rest of the movie.
