20 Most Critically Reviled Films Of 2014

20. Very Good Girls

19% - 31 Reviews More like Very Bad Girls, huh? Or Very Much Not Heard Of This Film About Good Girls. 68-year-old Naomi Foner Gyllenhaal was nominated for an Oscar for her screenplay to Running On Empty. But that was in 1988, and that film starred River Phoenix and was directed by Sidney Lumet. Very Good Girls, meanwhile, is directed by Foner, and stars Dakota Fanning and Elizabeth Olsen who fall for the same guy. And they've agreed to both lose their virginity before they go to college! It's American Pie meets every rom com! Choice review quote: €œThis all-around misfire saddles a miscast group of name thesps...with poor word of mouth from the Sundance world preem, this looking-for-distribution indie may go directly to home formats.€ (Variety)
