i don't know what's the worst movie, however the worst ending to a movie is rush hour 3.....they just danced away after punching a cop, someone getting shot right beside them and leaving a girl in the elevator

The KillBill series. Totally crappy. Lots of violence with no storyline lol. Now Pulp Fiction that was a good Quentin Tarantino film.
The set pieces in KB were *beautifully* designed (and true, some were very violent) - but it's a perfect homage to Misumi, a little dark spin on some Kurasawa and the conspicuous nod to the Shaw Brothers.
I do realize it's very subjective [the subject matter], but the technical execution was outstanding, and the plot is very present, just simple (in the style of the aforementioned)

Nowhere near as bad as the ending of 2001: A Space Odyssey. It makes sense in the book, but in the film they removed any references to aliens, so the ending just comes off as nonsensical and pretentious.

Are you guys crazy? It was just a man standing in a phonebooth, the most cheapskate plot ever, no action, bored me to death.
It wasn't an action movie though; it was psychological thriller. That said, I actually agree with you anyway. The movie could've been a radio show with the same volume of entertainment. I listened to the movie while my parents were watching it in the other room once, I knew exactly what was the happening the whole time. One-scene movies FTL.
As for bad movies on my list...
Panic Room (this one takes the cake just because I actually paid to see it; it's not as bad as the two to follow however)
Batman & Robin (Batman = my favourite superhero, Batman & Robin = blasphemy in my eyes)
Spider-Man 3 (SO glad I didn't end up going to the theater to see it)
Glengarry Glen Ross? Effectively one-scene and a pretty masterful piece of film making. Probably others too (especially material that originates from the stage).

Yeah, any of the post-Burton 1st generation Batman films are stinkers. I'm figuring if you're a fan of Batman you must have loved (as much as me) Batman Begins. Probably as close to a Frank Miller take as we'll ever get - really looking forward to The Dark Knight.
S3 is an odd bag - it's like they put every idea they had left in a bag: some good, some terrible, some just unnecessary, shook 'em up and filmed the results. It's defintely my least favorite of the three, and in a tie as my least fave superhero film (along with X3).
We saw it at the local IMAX so it gained a few points just for the experience of seeing it on a GIANT screen
My understanding is the original intent was for Raimi to shoot 3 and 4 with 3 just being a setup for Venom (showing up in just the closing moments) but he didn't want to do a 4th and the PTB wanted his involvement with Venom so they just piled everything in.
Funny enough, the same thing happened with XMen 3 - Singer has a working script that had a two movie arc for Jean Grey/Phoenix, but he bailed for Superman and again they just packed everything into a single script tossed to some hack director to shoot.
