There is no rhyme or reason for why a movie turns out to be bad. Sometimes you can see a stinker coming from the very first trailer, and sometimes it's not until you're sitting there enduring supreme boredom that it hits you. Whatever the case, these, the 10 worst movies of 2016, should be avoided at all costs.

8. Man Down [https://sanantonio.culturemap.com/news/entertainment/12-02-16-man-down-movie-review-sa/#slide=0] In more competent hands, the premise of Man Down might have worked. Shia LaBeouf plays a soldier so stricken with PTSD that he thinks he's living in a post-apocalyptic world. But the filmmakers treat his condition like a mystery, setting up a huge reveal at the end that's so obvious it's laughable. If they had approached the idea with more seriousness, the film might have had a chance to succeed. But because they don't, we're left with one that deserves to be denigrated.
