Unfortunately, a lot of movies last year didn&#8217;t live up to their promise or hype. What movies were the biggest letdowns for you?<br \/>\n<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>2016 was widely regarded as a year of disappointments. I&#8217;m sure that I haven&#8217;t cataloged them all in these poll choices. I also know that some people hated blockbusters such as &#8216;Captain America: Civil War&#8217; or &#8216;Rogue One&#8217;, but that isn&#8217;t the prevailing sentiment on those movies. What I&#8217;ve tried to do here is find a selection of notable movies that were widely met with mixed or negative reactions. If I missed something that you really disliked, vote &#8220;Other&#8221; and tell us about it in the Comments section.<\/p>\n<p>Of these that I&#8217;ve seen, I was a little disappointed in a lot of the dumb nonsense in &#8216;Star Trek Beyond&#8217;, but I generally liked the movie. I&#8217;ve only seen the extended Ultimate Edition of &#8216;Batman v. Superman&#8217;, which is generally agreed to be a big improvement over the theatrical cut that everybody hated, and I thought it was OK. I don&#8217;t have much interest in ever watching too many of the others on this list.  <\/p>\n<div id=\"polls-786\" class=\"wp-polls\">\n\t<form id=\"polls_form_786\" class=\"wp-polls-form\" action=\"\/blog\/index.php\" method=\"post\">\n\t\t<p style=\"display: none;\"><input type=\"hidden\" id=\"poll_786_nonce\" name=\"wp-polls-nonce\" value=\"a755c64a98\" \/><\/p>\n\t\t<p style=\"display: none;\"><input type=\"hidden\" name=\"poll_id\" value=\"786\" \/><\/p>\n\t\t<p style=\"display: none;\"><input type=\"hidden\" id=\"poll_multiple_ans_786\" name=\"poll_multiple_ans_786\" value=\"44\" \/><\/p>\n\t\t<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>What Were the Most Disappointing Movies of 2016?<\/strong><\/p><div id=\"polls-786-ans\" class=\"wp-polls-ans\"><ul class=\"wp-polls-ul\">\n\t\t<li><input type=\"checkbox\" id=\"poll-answer-13957\" name=\"poll_786\" value=\"13957\" \/> <label for=\"poll-answer-13957\">'The 5th Wave'<\/label><\/li>\n\t\t<li><input type=\"checkbox\" id=\"poll-answer-13958\" name=\"poll_786\" value=\"13958\" \/> <label for=\"poll-answer-13958\">'Alice Through the Looking Glass'<\/label><\/li>\n\t\t<li><input type=\"checkbox\" id=\"poll-answer-13959\" name=\"poll_786\" value=\"13959\" \/> <label for=\"poll-answer-13959\">'Assassin's Creed'<\/label><\/li>\n\t\t<li><input type=\"checkbox\" id=\"poll-answer-13960\" name=\"poll_786\" value=\"13960\" \/> <label for=\"poll-answer-13960\">'Bad Santa 2'<\/label><\/li>\n\t\t<li><input type=\"checkbox\" id=\"poll-answer-13961\" name=\"poll_786\" value=\"13961\" \/> <label for=\"poll-answer-13961\">'Batman v.
