Default Worst movies with the best casts

This thread is dedicated to incredibly bad movies with awesome casts. Two that come immediately to mind are:

Frogs (1972) - IMDb

and

The Towering Inferno (1974) - IMDb

Almost forgot!

The January Man

Cast:
Kevin Kline
Susan Sarandon
Harvey Keitel
Alan Rickman
Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio
Danny Aiello
Rod Steiger

With that cast, it could have been a great movie. But it's a really badly-told story of a serial killer, and the parts are written so poorly that the actors seem like they're terrible at acting.

I would say the Oceans 11 franchise..Most, if not all the actors in those movies are A-list all the way, yet I never liked any of those movies. Maybe I just don't like movies whose whole premise is based on robbing something. Can get very boring to me..

I wouldn't say THE worst, but Public Enemies comes to mind for me.

Maybe it's because I expected too much (which I try never to do) when I saw the slew of talent to be involved in the film. But I was pretty disappointed.
