The Year in Movies With Peter Travers: Best and Worst of 2009
*Rolling Stone* movie critic Peter Travers reaches into his Scum Bucket, filled to the brim with a year’s worth of terrible movies, to count down the five worst films of 2009. Anyone who’s been an avid viewer of this year’s *At the Movies* can likely predict which blockbuster Travers abhorred more than any other, but tune in to hear him rail against five of 2009’s most despicable cinematic travesties: 2012, Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen, The Twilight Saga: New Moon, G.I. Joe: Rise of Cobra and Will Ferrell’s unfunny comedy Land of the Lost. Plus, Travers hands out his award for Worst Actresses and Actors in 2009.
