Simon Sez
Dennis Rodman as an Interpol agent. Those should be all the words you need to understand what was so messed up about this movie. Bascially, it’s total indefensible trash. Rodman plays an Interpol Agent named Simon, who goes on a mission to stop an arms dealer who kidnapped the daughter of a close friend.
This action-comedy shouldn’t take itself too seriously, but somehow it still does! It falls into chewed-up spy movie cliches and fails to give its viewers their money’s worth. This is probably why it failed so miserably. How miserably? It made a total of $292,152 at the box office. That’s how.
Wagons East
"Wagons East" is a western comedy directed by Peter Markle. It tells the story of a few pioneers trying to make their way back home after giving up on the frontier life. Their journey is riddled with adventures courtesy of the crazy wagonmaster. The film stars the late Richard Lewis and John Candy, and the latter might be the only reason why anyone has ever bothered to watch it.
You see, Candy died from a heart attack on one of the last days of filming. The movie was released five months following his death, which made the critics very sorry to have watched it as Candy's last work.Ultimately, "Wagons East" became a candidate for one of the worst movies.
Shadow Conspiracy
White House drama is nothing new. We get a movie with that kind of plot at least once every couple of years it has to have some serious novelty in order to have an impact on anyone, so most of those films aren't the greatest cinematic masterpieces ever made. Still, "Shadow Conspiracy" might be the worst of them yet.
In this film, Jacob Conrad (portrayed by Donald Sutherland) is a member of the White House staff who makes plans to assassinate the President. His plan is then revealed by Bobby Bishop (Charlie Sheen), another staff member. Turns out, the film's lack of touch with reality is what turned it into the flop it is with only $2 million in the box office in the States.

The film was written by Reginald Rose and directed by Sidney Lumet. Shot in a single location, it’s known for its minimalistic filmmaking. The year after its release, it won the Writers Guild of America Award for Best Written Drama, and several decades later, in 1997, it was added to the PGA Hall of Fame.
The Irishman
Directed by Martin Scorsese, he revisits familiar themes in this epic gangster drama that really makes it so captivating. Many viewers have said it's worth the hype, so much so that it's worth the three-and-a-half hours of viewing time. "The Irishman" is a modern-day mobster masterpiece from one of the best directors of our time.
Set in the 1950s, the film follows truck driver Frank Sheeran who somehow gets entangled with Russell Bufalino and his Pennsylvania crime family. As Sheeran tries his best to climb the ranks to become a top hitman, he also goes to work for Jimmy Hoffa - a powerful Teamster tied to organized crime.
