Bad movies aren’t what they used to be. More specifically, bad movies that make it into theaters these days usually have a base level of competence that sets them apart from the bad movies of yesteryear. Dullness dwells where incompetence used to call home. The Raja Gosnells far outnumber the Ed Woods. But every once in a while, a film limps into theaters so stitched together, it’s a wonder it doesn’t rip apart in the projector. Jonah Hex is such a film.
...
Jonah Hex is what happens when someone promises to deliver a releasable movie by a certain date, and then doesn’t.

Whole elements, like Hex’s supernatural powers and Megan Fox’s prostitute-in-distress, could disappear without anyone noticing. And that’s without even mentioning the Native American village that shows up at random. Or the CGI crows. Or the acid-spitting snake-man.
Awesome. Can't wait to see it.

Now it's 4% on 28 reviews. Looks like some of the RT users are morons.

Gee... It can't be THAT bad can it? I've seen some pretty **** movies in my time.

Can it really be worse than Prom Night?
And it might sound funny, but I would buy a O-Z just to get you in my bedroom.

I don't know if it's the worst movie ever, but it's certainly bad. However, some parts of it are (unintentionally) hilarious, like the Gatling gun equipped horse and the totally real looking face deformity. If the movie didn't take itself seriously, it could make a half-decent comedy.

Brace yourselves, Jonah Hex has a reasonable opponent in the form of "The Last Airbender". That's right, the children's anime/cartoon featuring a kid who bends wind (Sounds like a euphemism for floating an ass biscuit to me) is being made into a feature length film full of pretty CGI and a plot comparable to the failure that the cartoon was always meant to be.
Now they're making horrid films out of crappy cartoons...
Yo.
