12 Most Disposable Films Of 2015

5. San Andreas

Had it been made 20 years ago, San Andreas would€™ve starred Sylvester Stallone or, if it€™d been made even earlier, Charlton Heston. That€™s the movie€™s problem: it€™s so anonymous that it could€™ve been made at any time, starring absolutely anyone. Dumb, manipulative and in a hurry to give you something to look at every few minutes, this is an old school disaster movie souped-up with state-of-the-art special effects. In no other area does the movie have anything new to offer, least of all in the character department. Dwayne Johnson is the fearless helicopter pilot who scours earthquake-devastated California for his estranged daughter, Paul Giamatti is the scientist whose warnings went unheeded and Ioan Gruffud is the cowardly businessman who has €˜dead meat€™ written all over him. You€™ve seen it all before, and after watching San Andreas once, it€™ll be a long time before you revisit it.
