Is this the worst film ever made?

Open Water 2: Adrift

Whilst waiting for the (very brief) West Ham highlights on Match of the Day I was flicking through Sky Movies trying to find something to keep me occupied during the dross of Birmingham - Derby and came across a film called "Adrift". It had already started so I hit the information button and was helpfully informed that this film was about 6 firends who jump in to the ocean off of a large yacht and can't get back on board because no one thought to lower the stairs.

What a brilliant premise I hear you cry, tell me more. Well after watching 6 dreadful actors tread water for about 5 minutes I was completely engrossed. I started thinking of all the dreadful films I've ever seen and whether this was worse than all of them. I think it may well have been. These idiots don't do anything productive to try and get back on the boat and instead bicker and kill each other. Literally.

Example number one. One of our intrepid crew manages to get his ringing mobile phone (don't ask) and is actually on a call with someone. Do you think he calmly explains the situation or do you think everyone starts screaming into the phone, wrestling with the handset and then dunk it in the water several times whilst they are squabbling, completely destroying it?

Example number two. They have an extremely sharp knife with them that punctures metal (don't ask). After exhausting 1 other rescue attempt one of our intrepid crew decides to try and hack his way through the side of the boat to the stair compartment. Do you think they carefully plan how best to go about this or do you think they squabble over it, wrestle with the very sharp knife and accidently stab one of them in the chest, causing him to haemorrhage blood and die moments later?

4 of the 6 eventually get picked off one by one. Not by a bloodthirsty shark. Not by a crazed Billy Zane. But by their own ineptitude. That does not a very good movie make. By the end of the film we're left with just 2 and they suddenly come up with a very simple way of getting back on board that had escaped all of them up til that point. These idiots all deserved to die and it is most unfortunate that that didn't happen.

I've completely spoilt the whole thing but it's not as if you were going to watch it anyway and if you are then you'll be wathcing it for the dreadful dialogue and abysmal acting, and not the cleverly plotted storyline.

This is almost certainly the worst film I've ever seen and for that reason is highly recommended.
