8 Filmmakers Who Were Pissed Off By Movie Critics

Let's end on a bizarre one, shall we?

It's widely agreed that Uwe Boll does not make good movies, and in fact, he's only famous as a director because his films are so memorably bad. BloodRayne, Alone In The Dark, Far Cry, Postal... it's a career packed with rotten stinkers, and so, in 2006, Boll decided to turn the tables on his critics and give them a beating of their own.

But he didn't insult them on social media, or write an angry article about them - oh no. Instead, Boll chose to invite several of his most vocal critics into the ring for a boxing match. An actual, proper boxing match. We're not joking.

Four critics took part in this weird event (including Jeff Sneider, who is currently one of the most famous movie reporters in the business), and even though they outnumbered Boll, he still managed to knock the lights out of every single one of them. When the fights were over, Boll reportedly said that he now likes these critics, because they showed guts by venturing into the ring.

If only he put this much passion and effort into making good movies...
