Hundreds of movies are released each year and while we want every one of them to be masterful pieces of art, often times this isn’t the case. Sometimes we get films that truly raise the bar for its genre and sometimes we get films full of overused tropes and cliches. That’s where the Annual Razzie Award comes into play.
