Blandest Movies of 2023
The reality is that a lot of movies are just mediocre, kind of meh. They weren’t terrible but they were also nothing special. These were just movies that came out this year. They didn’t inspire me nor did they make me violently ill. So this is that list. This is the list of the most mediocre movies of 2023. These will be going from most to least interesting in a very relative manner.

Worst Movies of 2023
With as many amazing movies as we got last year there were bound to be a few bombs. Some bombed harder than others but altogether these are the worst movies of the year. Alright here we go with the list of the absolute worst movies of 2023. These are unforgivably bad with absolutely no redeeming qualities. This list also kind of has a wide range of scores so we will be going from the least offensive to the most upsettingly bad.

Saltburn
For those of you who have lived under a rock the last few weeks it seem and have not heard of the movie Saltburn. It is the latest craze of a movie available on Amazon Prime. A bit of a description of the movie without spoiling anything for anyone, it is the story of Oliver Quick at Oxford University when he finds himself drawn into the world of the charming Felix Catton, who invites him to Saltburn, his eccentric family’s sprawling estate, for a summer never to be forgotten.

Actors who portrayed Willy Wonka
These were actors who played the role of a man who fulfilled our world of pure imagination or should I say Roald Dahl's creation. Started as a best-selling novel to film adaptations to a Broadway musical adaptation. These actors played the charming, gentle, and funny chocolatier Willy Wonka.

Rebel Moon Part One: A Dumpster of Fire
**SPOILERS** Oh, Zack Snyder...you and your ‘this isn’t Star Wars meets Seventh Samurai’ scheme, what did you do to us? I tried, I really did. The first fifteen minutes or so I thought we had something going on but quickly it all felt painfully familiar with themes and characters we’ve all seen before. We’ve got the evil Motherworld which is basically the Empire who have depleted their own world of resources and are in search of a planet that can make them sandwiches. One of the first images of them is their cylindrical ship leaaving what can only be describes as large space vagina. You be the judge. They find food makers in the village of the planet Veldt (It's not Tatouine) populated by a handful of farmers who proudly work their land and are home to our main protagonist Kora (Sofia Boutella). She is a brooding, isolated twenty-something with an attitude and with that well worn stereotype introduced we now know how this is all going to play out character wise for her. And yep, turns out she’s an elite trained soldier who escaped the Motherworld after their king, queen and their magical princess daughter Issa were assassinated. Issa could apparently bring dead things back to life (not using the Force) and was heralded as a messiah to her people. Well, she’s DEAD now viewers, don’t you feel angry? Well you SHOULD because Zack TOLD us so through three minutes of TOUCHING exposition. Does this play into the narrative? Does this motivate Kora for revenge? Nope. I don’t think it’s even mentioned again. So why bloody introduce us to it in the first place if it doesn’t advance the story? Well, viewers don’t ask questions, just suck it up and move on.
