Elysium (A beautiful, Syd Mead inspired visual treat doesn't mask a fairly sub-standard film)
World's End (I still enjoyed it a lot, once I stopped thinking of it as a comedy. Still disappointing given the talent involved.)
World War Z (I knew it was going to be a trainwreck, but even taken on its own merits it was a poor film)

World War Z.

The early reports weren't good but the turd they produced really did make a mockery of the awesome source material.

The Counsellor - It had the ingredients to be a classic but produced nothing but a mess on the kitchen floor.
Trance - Danny Boyle really was expected to deliver more from this.
Man of Steel - The build up to this film began a long time ago so surely the script/acting/direction should have been a little more polished?
World War Z - I wasn't one of the fans of the source material that panned it before it was even released but I still looked forward to a good zombie epic. Like the similarly plotted "I am Legend" I was left disappointed by over CGI'ed creatures and scenes that just felt shoe horned in.
