TMNT & TRANSFORMERS 4 Dominate 2014 Razzies Shortlist
The shortlist of nominees for the 34th annual Golden Raspberry Awards has leaked, and both the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles reboot and Michael Bay's Transformers: Age Of Extinction are in the running for worst film of 2014. Click on for the list in full.
Below are the movies, actors and directors that made the 2014 Golden Raspberry Awards shortlist -- an award ceremony that takes place one day before the Academy Awards, but recognizes the very worst in film. It's mainly made up of movies that have come in for the biggest critical bashings, but there are also a few surprising inclusions. Featuring prominently are two films that made a lot of money last year, but were pretty much universally panned: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Transformers: Age Of Extinction. There's also the likes of Transcendence and I, Frankenstein. Though The Interview didn't go down very well with everyone, the reviews for that were more mixed than negative, and while Darren Aronofsky's Noah (77% on Rotten Tomatoes) had its detractors, most critics had at least something good to say about it so its inclusion here is kinda inexplicable. Somewhat surprisingly, The Amazing Spider-Man 2 is nowhere to be seen. Voting for the 34th annual event ends on January 10, with the nominations presented on January 14, one day before The Academy Awards nominations.
