15 Dumbest Things In The Worst Summer Movie Season Ever

4. The Entirety Of Nine Lives

Nine Lives Kevin Spacey
EuropaCorp

This Kevin Spacey-starring talking cat movie is by far the worst-reviewed Hollywood production of the summer, reviled largely for existing solely to provide Spacey, Christopher Walken and Men in Black director Barry Sonnenfeld with easy, low-effort paychecks.

Why It's Dumb: You need only watch the 2-minute trailer to figure this one out for yourself: it's every poor, cynical Hollywood instinct blended together into an ugly, unfunny paste.

Strangely, it's not even really that appropriate for its young audience demographic: suicide is a significant plot point here, and Spacey bears an unsavory resemblance to Donald Trump at times.

Thankfully it at least had the decency to bomb at the box office and score a wretched 2.5/10 average score with critics. Still, less of this please, Hollywood.
