20 Underwhelming Movies From Star Wars Actors You Must Avoid

10. Mr Magorium's Wonder Emporium

Natalie Portman Thor 2
20th Century Fox

Actor:

Natalie Portman (Padme Amidala)

The Film:

The Star Wars Prequels are still Natalie Portman's worst role and she herself has indicated that she regrets them. Padme Amidala is the role Portman probably wants you to forget the most, but this is another one she probably kicks herself over.

Mr Magorium has some nice visuals and an impressive cast, but it's just too vanilla and action-free to work. As for Portman, she is a brilliant actress, but this was a major off-day and she gives a hugely annoying performance.

There was a very funny scene in Breaking Bad where Walter was hiding in a cabin and realized all he had to watch were two copies of this movie. That is a truly appalling thought and after this episode was broadcast, director Zach Helm openly said he hates his own film and agreed being stuck with it would be a terrible punishment.
