Razzies 2018: 7 Winners That Make No Sense

After winning the Razzie Redeemer Award last year for directing Hacksaw Ridge, Mel Gibson took home a rather questionable Worst Supporting Actor Razzie this year for his paycheck-grabbing but hardly terrible work in holiday comedy Daddy's Home 2.

As with Tyler Perry's win, it's pure laziness on the part of Razzie voters, going for an easy target rather than actually thinking critically about who gave the worst supporting performance of 2017.

Who Should've Won: This entire section is a bust, to be honest: Javier Bardem (mother!, Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales) was good in both movies he was nominated for, barely anyone even remembers Josh Duhamel's (Transformers: The Last Knight) performance, Russell Crowe (The Mummy) was the only actor having any fun in his movie, and Anthony Hopkins (Transformers: The Last Knight, Collide) was the best part of Transformers, while nobody even saw Collide.

There were a number of worthy performances that didn't even get nominated, namely Matt Barr (The Layover), Val Kilmer (The Snowman), pretty much anyone in Geostorm, Kiefer Sutherland (Flatliners) and the true deserving winner, Ellar Coltrane, for his utterly rancid dud of a performance in The Circle.
