1. Mortal Kombat (2021)

2. The first 5 minutes of Valerian is pretty good. The overall movie is dreadful.

3. Expendables 1, 2 , 3

4. GI Joe 2

5. X-men Origins: Wolverine.

6. Army of the Dead

   I’m probably not going to reach the right audience, but I’m curious if the downvotes indicate that people didn’t like the opener of Army of the Dead, which I think was a 5 minute awesome summary of a great story, or that they Did like the whole rest of the movie (which was a letdown after the opener, in my opinion)

7. Dusk til dawn

8. John carter

9. Zombieland 2

10. Saved by the bell It is a Netflix movie but it’s terrible

11. I can’t think of any. And I’ve never seen any of the movie suggestions others have offered

12. I don’t know if I’d call it a terrible film but the opening of Chasing Amy is the best part of that movie

13. Opening of Suicide Squad(the first one) was cool as hell

14. All of the Fast and furious movies

15. Everything

16. Ghost Ship

17. Watchmens opening credits are amazing. Then it begins to miss the point pretty fast

18. Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom. 🦖🚁

19. Can’t think of a opening but nor would I call it a terrible film. Force awakens, the scene where Poe and Finn escape on the tie fighter was incredible. I thought I was getting ready to see the adventures of Poe and Finn but that’s not what we got lol

20. I would not go as far as saying the movie is terrible but Swordfish is one of the best openings ever and after that it becomes just a very ok flick.
