Why, you ask? Well, a buddy and I were interested in watching a bad movie, and this one had all the hallmarks.

First, it stars former wrestler "The Edge". I have no idea what his name is in real life. Frankly, I don't want to know. It also stars Joey Lawrence. Yes, that Joey Lawrence. Not enough Lawerences for you? Well good news, because Matthew Lawrence is in there, too. Did I mention that it was written and directed by Andrew Lawrence? Because it is.

You're on the fence as to whether this is the worst move ever. I get it. How about the fact that it features Denise Richards. And Kesley Grammer. Kelsey Grammer's name in the film, you ask? His name is "The Rumble".



It's at this point I'd like to remind you that "The Rumble" has 6 emmy awards. And I forgot to mention that Thomas Jane is in this mess, too.

You're excited now, but I haven't even told you the plot. Here's the tagline from IMDb:

Quote:

A professional thief with $40 million in debt and his family's life on the line must commit one final heist - rob a futuristic airborne casino filled with the world's most dangerous criminals.



That trailer sealed it for us.

I have since learned that it's become a bit of a thing to the point that The Ringer did an oral history piece on it:

So if you have 82 minutes to kill (yes, 82 is the total run time), and you want to watch the worst movie ever made, it'll run you about $4 on Amazon prime.

I highly doubt it is the worst movie ever made

I'd be curious to see how this stacks up against Black sheep(movie about zombie sheep, not the Chris Farley one) or Thankskilling(movie about a murderous thanksgiving turkey). Worst movie is an extremely high bar...

Um, actually..."The Rumble" is his nickname. The character's actual name is Darius Emmanuel Grouch III.

Nothing, I mean NOTHING, was worse than Snowpiercer... I can't even believe you anymore.

This movie was recently featured on the podcast "How Did This Get Made?".

Seeing Denise Richards for a few minutes should be worth $4 right?

Right?!?

The best part of that trailer is where it says the plane is "carrying" an amount of money in cryptocurrency.

Was walking by a redbox today and my 8 year old stopped to look at the movies. He actually pointed to this one at asked why it was rated "NR"

I kind of assumed it was because it went straight to video. Had no idea it was famous.

Checkout The Mangler... it's a movie about a demonically possessed laundry folding machine that kills people.

You haven't seen Manos: Hand of Fate. Go watch that and get back to us.

So none of you watched "John Was Trying to Contact Aliens" I take it. Only a 16 minute documentary on netflix, so not really a movie... but the whole thing is a why tf did this ever get made, and why tf am I watching this.

I have seen Manos and been made to sit through various MST3K renditions of it. The difference between Manos and a movie like Money Plane is that Manos was made for like $20k. It was made by amateurs without any experience. Money Plane cost millions, and real people signed on to work on this thing. It has a Bond Girl, a 6-time Emmy Winner, a former teen idol, a professional wrestler, The Punisher, etc.

It's HORRIBLE and everyone should watch it.

You know the Fast & Furious writers saw this and were like "casino heist on a plane with a lot of fighting and yelling...hmm..."

You have a point. I heard Manos was made by a car dealer who bet someone he could make a movie. I guess he didn't stipulate a good movie. I'm shocked it cost 20K to make.

Hurricane Heist would be in the top 10...er bottom 10.

How can a movie with that tag line be worse than this gem my wife decided to watch on Netflix earlier this week.

Love, Guaranteed
To save her small law firm, earnest lawyer Susan takes a high-paying case from Nick, a charming new client who wants to sue a dating website that guarantees love. But as the case heats up, so do Susan and Nick's feelings for each other.

It's every bit as awful as you'd expect, there is 0% chance a movie called Money Plane, starring professional wrestlers and Kelsey Grammer doesn't surpass Love, Guaranteed.

What if they were intentionally making a bad film, getting The Ringer and other sites to write about how bad it is, and then trying to rake in money on it being a cult classic? In that case we should do the opposite and not watch it.

Except that it fails at that, too. I'm not buying that they all don't think it's incredible.

This is a terrible take and means you haven't seen many truly bad films.

Well, it worked as a short story from Stephen King. As a full-length movie, maybe not.

I knew it started as a Stephen King short and that it is apparently not awful, although I have never read it. The movie was real not good though.
