10 Huge Oscar-Winning Movies That Nobody Really Likes

9. Crash (2004)

Oscar Wins: Best Picture, Best Original Screenplay, Best Film Editing (3)

"More like the film itself was a car crash! Am I right? Guys?" That's just one of the many wry remarks you might hear regarding Paul Haggis' Best Picture winner, Crash, which received 3 Academy Awards back in 2005 and more hatred than Adolf Hitler at a Bar Mitzvah.

Which is to say that Crash, a film about racial tensions in Los Angeles, is perhaps the most obvious entry to make this list - there are very, very few human beings on the planet who would admit to liking the film, after all. And it's not all that difficult to see why: overwrought and patronising at almost every turn, Crash reeks of self-importance and - at times - plays into the very stereotypes it's so desperately trying to subvert.

Truly, it's one of the worst Best Picture winners - if only because it's a film that almost fails entirely to stick in your memory banks. Can anyone remember with any sense of vividness a particular scene or moment in Crash, aside from "Uh, Brendan Fraser was in it?"

Is it the worst film ever? No. But there's a reason for the backlash: it's bad filmmaking.
