Don't know if it's the worst but the first to come to mind is [i]Cape No. 7[/i]. Was majorly popular here in Taiwan because it takes place in a major beach town so it felt very personal to people but the plot is just... [spoiler]So the main character is a slacker who gets kicked out of his band because he's a piece of sh*t. He ends up moving from the big city to his hometown because he has no job so his dad or uncle or something lands him a job as a nail carrier, which being a government job is actually sonewhat prestigious here. Yay, nepotism. So rather than doing his job he just takes all the mail home and never delivers any of it. Might as well forget about this because there will be zero major repercussions. I think he gets told off by his dad maybe once but that's about it. Enter a former Japanese model who has "aged out of the industry" and is now effectively a handler for younger models. She is educated and works hard and as a result is bitter she's been replaced by and must care for naive bimbos who have it easy. So these two charactere LOATHE each other. They are antitheses of each other and the embodyment everything other hates: the handed everything, appreciates nothing, slacker nepo-baby and the jaded stick up their a** overachiever. So anyway, about half way through the movie, they get drunk, f***, and wake up the next morning realizing they're in love. Like, they literally go from mortal enemies to lovey-dovey in less than 5 minutes. And there's no real development or conflict as a result. It really just feels like the message is, "if you get drunk and wake up next to someone, it must mean they're your soulmate." Anyway, back to A-plot. So the A-plot is... fine. The setup is there's a local music festival (Spring Scream, which is real and a big reason people felt a personal connection because they've attended before so "nostalgia") and the main character once being part of a band is tasked with leading a ragtag group of locals. And to every cliche you're thinking right now... yes. You've got your elderly musician who plays a traditional instrument, a local gradeschool band nerd who plays I think the marimba or something... not ideal for a rock band but you know they're going to make it work... even if the "leader" basically never shows up to practice because he's written them off. But wait, there's more! So the C-plot is that they've found these old love letters that were never delivered. And when I say old, I mean OLD. So Taiwan was occupied by Japan until it was handed over to the ROC in 1945. These letters are from a Japanese guy who was in love with a local girl but never worked up the courage to tell her before control was handed over and he was forced to return to Japan. Tragic, right? Here's the thing... he was her teacher. Like, it's literally a dude in his late 20's/early 30's pining after a 15 year-old high school student... for years... I mean, I get it, "times were different," and that's to say nothing of cultural differences... I've heard stories... but not THAT different. But oh, it gets "better". So the reason they find this letter is because the guy was reading other people's mail when he got bored... you know, instead of delivering it as his job would suggest. Now, the letter wouldn't be delivered anyway because the sender didn't know the actual address, just the village. And the sender is... the dude's daughter. So yeah, he died and she was going through his stuff when she found a box of unsent love letters. So dude got married and started a family but continued to pine for his former student who was 15 at the time and (likely) had no clue her teacher was her own personal incel. And somehow, SOMEHOW, his daughter thought this was SO sweet (f*** Mom, I guess) that she just had to get his letters to this girl who, by the way, turns out to be a grandma with her own family end everything. But f*** grandpa, I guess, because it's all presented as if her one true love was her highschool teacher, and she deserves to know. My only consolation is that we see them deliver the letters but not her reading them so at least I can head canon her reading two sentences in then burning the pile.[/spoiler] What's funny is the movie leans so hard into featuring popular locations and events that most fans were too distracted by the nostalgia of "[i]Oh, I've been to that beach! Oh, I've eaten at that food stand! Oh, I've stayed at that hotel![/i]" to really consider the plot. Recap it to them though and 99% of the time they stop being fans.
