The 6 Most Disappointing Movies Of 2014

Here is the biggest problem with movies nowadays: trailers and hype. With the internet always aflutter about what the next big film will be, and studios ramming ads down your throat constantly both consciously and subconsciously, it is hard not to get swept up in the excitement about a particular movie, especially when it seems that mainstream media is really pushing the agenda of that movie on the masses.

Transcendence

Of all the movies from 2014 on this list, Transcendence seemed to have the most potential to be the one that would wow people with a thought-provoking story, a strong cast and some heavy themes about where we may be heading, technologically speaking.

What we ended up getting, however, was a dull movie that brought nothing new to the table and further convinced me that Johnny Depp got his talent sucked out of him years ago. I’m not sure how or why it happened, but The Lone Ranger, Tusk (an otherwise great film ruined by Depp) and now this? Really, Johnny?

But seriously, though, Transcendence is just another shitty movie that looked like it might be interesting and ended up being cliche. I really think that Depp may need to be a little more selective with his forthcoming roles, lest we lose all respect for the spectacular career he has built up to this point.
