History Narm / FilmIToP

** His puckering, contorted facial expression when he kills [[spoiler:his dog]] is just disturbing. It's not sad or angry in any way, just incredibly odd.

* In ''Film/TheImpossible'', it's very hard to feel any sort of empathy for the characters when they are SCREAMING NON-STOP at every little occurrence. They're not very likeable or smart, either, especially the mother, who tells her clearly terrified and shell-shocked son to try to help a woman who's just gone from being near comatose to busily vomiting and choking up blood.
** Also, there's a scene later on where Creator/EwanMcGregor's character manages to contact his family back home and starts to cry. He is a talented actor, but the man ''cannot'' do a crying scene without his over-the-top wailing making it sound hilarious.
* ''Film/InTime'' has lots of dramatic moments ruined by hilariously ungraceful running, Olivia Wilde being the exception. Yeah, I know, they're running for their lives... but if your movie is going to feature a lot of dramatic shots of people running, you should probably try to cast people with a graceful stride and not put your leading lady in high heels.
** Also, some people found [[spoiler: Creator/CillianMurphy and Creator/OliviaWilde]]'s death scenes to be incredibly hilarious, the former because of the really silly circumstances that lead to it and the second one due to Justin Timberlake's reaction.
* ''Film/{{Inception}}'': Every time they cut to the falling van. ''Especially'' Arthur's expression.
** Cobb talking to Mal in limbo, which is an extremely intense scene - until Cobb gets to his "all your perfection, all your imperfection" speech. It probably is the only time in the film Creator/LeonardoDiCaprio looks genuinely confused, instead of acting confused.
** Creator/LeonardoDiCaprio's overwrought screams of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xNqVn_DUuLc "MAL, NO, JESUS CHRIST-"]] turn an otherwise heart-wrenching scene into pure narm.

** Arguably, anything involving the army ants. From the completely inaccurate appearance, the chittering noises that they don't make in real life and the unrealistic amounts of goop that they produce when killed. Then there's how their "eating people alive" is a prime example of BloodlessCarnage, and the way they pull Dovchenko alive, still kicking and screaming, into their anthill, is a gross violation of both science and physics. Army ants ''don't build nests'' and if they did, they would be mounds of dirt with ant-sized tunnels.
** What about the 'Creator/ShiaLaBeouf and monkeys' swinging scene! It was over the top and unbelievable and a distraction from the epic truck battle going on.
** [[LargeHam I WANT TO KNOW! I WANT TO KNOW EVERYTHING YOU KNOW!!!!!]]
* ''Film/{{Insidious}}'' has some pretty freaky stuff, however the commercial reveals that one of the ghosts/demons... [[http://totallylookslike.files.wordpress.com/2011/04/darth-maul-totally-looks-like-demon-from-insidious.jpg looks hilariously like Darth Maul]].
** And oddly, that is probably the single scariest moment in the entire movie.
* Lestat in ''Film/InterviewWithTheVampire'' has quite a few narm moments, the most notable being midway through: Louis finally embraces his vampire instincts by [[spoiler:biting a little girl]], and Lestat decides to celebrate by dancing around with... wait for it... a dead corpse. Don't believe it? [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r9kWNtZyuws There's still life in the old lady yet!]]
** In the book, that scene is almost creepy. But Creator/TomCruise dancing with a dead woman is just strange.
** Creator/BradPitt's HeroicBSOD while his Louisiana mansion burns down.
---> "This place is cursed! DAAAAAAAAMNED!"
** "AND YES, YOUR MASTER IS THE DEVIL!"
* ''Film/{{Interstellar}}'' has Creator/MatthewMcConaughey's '''completely''' [[LargeHam hammy]] acting in the climax of what was an otherwise [[SugarWiki/VisualEffectsOfAwesome beautiful]] movie.
--> "MAAAAAAAURRRRFFFFF! MAAAAAAAAUUURRRRFFFFF!"
* ''Film/IntoTheWoods'':
** [[spoiler:The Baker's Wife's death, since what is shown is her slipping from a branch and the few seconds of the camera focusing on the branch.]]
** The Giant would probably be a lot more intimidating if her voice wasn't pitched down.

* ''Film/It1990'': [[Narm/It1990 Has its own page.]]

* Most ''Film/JamesBond'' movies are light-hearted, but sometimes they top themselves:
** ''Film/LiveAndLetDie'': Kanaga/Mr. Big's death via compressed air pellet gets bigger laughs on accident than any of the other gags in the movie can by sincerely trying.
** ''Film/TheManWithTheGoldenGun'' is Narm-laden, but particular notice must go to sticking a slide whistle into the bridge jump. Worst of all, it detracts from the power of the stunt, which was done for real. Hell of a slap in the face for the technicians and stuntmen who set it up.
** Another Creator/RogerMoore Bond movie, ''Film/TheSpyWhoLovedMe'', has an opening scene so laden with narm that it's impossible to watch without laughing. It's not clear which is worse: the cuts between the action and the close-ups on Moore in a studio acting like he's in a completely different movie; or the disco soundtrack playing throughout.
** ''Film/ForYourEyesOnly'' also has a soundtrack problem, with a score more suitable for ''Film/{{Flashdance}}'' than for 007. There's also the opening sequence, specially this gem:
---->'''[[spoiler: Blofeld]]:''' ''[as Bond is dangling him from a helicopter]'' Please Mister Bond! I'll buy you a delicatessen! ''In stainless steel!''
** [[SmugSnake Koskov's]] "I ''told'' you!" happy dance in ''Film/TheLivingDaylights'' is cringe-inducing, especially since Creator/JeroenKrabbe is such an [[HamAndCheese enjoyable]] [[LargeHam ham]] for 99% of the movie.
** ''Film/DieAnotherDay'' turned what should have been a SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome -- Film/JamesBond surfing the tidal wave with the parachute -- into a Narmfest, thanks to [[SpecialEffectFailure unconvincing CGI]]. Especially bad because there was a surfing sequence at the beginning of the film done without CGI effects that looked much better.
** Creator/DanielCraig's reactions during the torture scene in ''Film/CasinoRoyale2006'' are over-the-top even for a serious GroinAttack. And Le Chiffre looks like Gerard Way of Music/MyChemicalRomance.
*** The [[MagicalDefibrillator defibrillation scene]] earlier in ''Film/CasinoRoyale2006'' was also over-the-top and unrealistic.
** Dominic Greene from ''Film/QuantumOfSolace'' would've been threatening... [[spoiler:had he not made the girliest battlecries ever when he was fighting Bond.]]
*** His uncanny resemblance to pianist/TV presenter Jools Holland is also distracting.
*** The scene after [[spoiler:Mathis dies.]] Presumably, you're supposed to be deeply affected by Bond's shift from grief to cold professionalism; but the sudden cut to Bond chucking the corpse into the rubbish and nicking his money was more comical than anything.
** In ''Film/{{Skyfall}}'', Raoul Silva's [[spoiler:death scene has him taking a knife to the back. He reaction? He turns around and lets out a few gasps, like he's mildly annoyed]]. The rest of Creator/JavierBardem's performance was excellently creepy, and it's possible it has a lot to do with the way this scene was cut together.

* "You... complete me" in ''Film/JerryMaguire''. It doesn't help that Creator/TomCruise looked like he was taking a dump while he said it.
** Hell, with that rictus smile of his, he looked like he was taking a dump through half the movie. The Joker from ''Film/TheDarkKnight'' was able to do the line in a way that was effective.

* The spraying bit in ''Film/{{Jumper}}''.

* ''Film/JurassicPark''
** The scene where Tim gets zapped on the fence.
---> '''"TIM?? NO, TIM!"'''
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F5zboV3_9KY "SHYOOOOOOOT HAAAAAAAR!"]]
** Creator/LauraDern as Dr. Satler is ''horrifically'' narmy throughout the film, numerous examples include: her high school play shocked-face on seeing the Brachiosaur for the first time, her wincing sobs of joy on encountering an unwell Triceratops, smashing her arm into a massive pile of dino-shit, her goofy running - "ru-uuuuuun!!", the bizarre and slightly un-hinged "Mr Hammond, I think we're back in business!" line when she reboots the power and finally - "S'GONNA COME THROUGH THE GLAAAASSSS!".
** We have a ''T. rex.''
** Hammond's shrill, matronly scream when he overhears Grant shooting at the velociraptor.
*** Pretty much the fact that he acts younger than Tim for most of the movie.
** The merciless close-up of Creator/SamuelLJackson's back-lit, whispy-tache mouth, munching on a cigarette repeating "Access main program, access main secuuurity."
*** Creator/SamuelLJackson narms it up pretty well with the "PLEEEASE! GOD DAMNMIT! HATE THIS HACKER CRAP!"
** The English translations of the names of the islands where the action takes place are pretty comical-- you expect that they'd be Spanish for something scary or at least cool, but Isla Sorna means "Sarcasm Island" and Isla Nublar means "To Cloud Island", which isn't even proper grammar. (They were probably going for "Cloudy Island", which would be deceptively innocuous.)
* ''Film/JurassicParkIII''
** The bad dream in which a raptor suddenly appears and says "Alan" as [[CrashingDreams someone is saying his name to wake him up]]. Granted, it ''is'' a dream, but is absolutely ludicrous taken out of context.

* ''Film/KickAss2'': Most of what comes out of The Motherfucker's mouth.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hjsZDaXMlpM&feature=related This]] scene from the Chinese film ''Kidnap'', Is [[SoOkayItsAverage Passable]], despite every actor speaking with huge amounts of LargeHam... Until the car appears. Then the scene devolves into Pure Narm.

** From the same film, the scene where Lancelot leaves his village. He turns back to look at a crowd of warriors watching him go, and they all scream at him.
---> Lancelot! BLAAAAAAGH!
*** That's supposed to be ''Rus'', a Sarmatian battle cry. Why can't that guy speak clearly?

* ''Film/{{Knowing}}'', when Creator/NicolasCage is chasing away people(?) who have been watching him:
--> '''Creator/NicolasCage''': [[ChewingTheScenery YOU WANT SOME OF THIS?!?]] (hits tree once with baseball bat)
** The makers of the film clearly have not spent much time on the Internet. Shooting laser beams from the mouth is daft enough; making it almost identical to the famous "Shoop da Whoop" meme is [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PckwUNzcHu4 just asking for trouble]].
** The [[SpecialEffectFailure CGI animals on CGI fire.]]
--->"THE CAVES CAN'T HELP YOU!!"
** The plane crash would be an emotionally gripping scene if it weren't for the fact that nearly all Americans know what a [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/September_11_attacks real plane crash looks like]]. If anyone survived a crash that resulted in the plane being blown to a long series of mangled debris, they wouldn't be in one piece, much less running around ablaze and screaming like Looney Tunes characters.

* ''Literature/TheLangoliers'' and "that horrible cereal noise." To say nothing of the titular creatures.
** "[[ChewingTheScenery Scaring the little GIRL?! SCARING THE LITTLE GIRL?! LADY!!]]"
* ''Film/TheLastAirbender'' examples have been moved [[Narm/TheLastAirbender here]].

* From the film adaptation of ''Literature/LeftBehind'', the scene of Hattie entering into the plane's cockpit after the Rapture:
--> "Hundreds of people - MISSING!"

* Moviegoers went into hysterics after watching the trailer of ''Film/{{Legion}}'', during the scene where a possessed elderly woman climbs up onto the ceiling.
** [[Website/ThatGuyWithTheGlasses "Oh come on! How can you not laugh at Spider-Granny?"]]
*** It wasn't so much the lady for me as the guy screaming "SHOOT IT!!!" at the top of his lungs.
** In the movie itself: the SpecialEffectFailure with the evil ice cream man, the fact that there's a character named ''Jeep'', Gabriel's chainsaw-mace thing, "I just want to play with your baby!"

* ''Film/LethalWeapon'' seemed to fall into this at time. The saxophone and trumpet scenes with Roger seem to be more unintentionally funny than it's supposed to be.
* ''Film/LetThereBeLight2017'': When the protagonist, outspoken atheist Sol Harkens, discusses with his estranged wife, devout Christian Katy, about how his lecturing tours pay for their children, she says "Who pays the emotional bills?", like it's the deepest line ever.

* The football scene in ''Little Children''. Between Sarah's incredibly overenthusiastic cheering and both football teams vanishing immediately, it's more funny than emotionally moving.

* The scene in the 1990 film of ''Literature/LordOfTheFlies''. Just... dear good, the scene where Roger shoves the rock down the cliff is absurdly cheesy. And combined with Ralph's ''BigNo''...
** For that matter, the same scene in the 1963 film may also qualify. Piggy's scream is obviously meant to be of pain and fear, but it just sounds funny.
* ''Film/TheLordOfTheRings'': [[Narm/TheLordOfTheRings Has its own page.]]

* Dr. Robinson's passionless declaration of love in ''Film/LostInSpace'': "I love you, wife."
* ''Love Me Deadly''. When [=McSweeney=] is embalming the male hooker alive. "NOOOOOOOOO! NAAAAAAAAAAAOOOOOOO, DON'T CUT MEEEE!"

* ''Film/MadMaxFuryRoad'':
** When Angharad asks Nux, "Who killed the world?" it's meant to be an ArmorPiercingQuestion, but Nux's age and the fact that he was apparently raised in Immortan Joe's warrior cult means he would have been an infant at most and probably not born yet[[note]]probably... the timeline is rather fluid[[/note]] when the UnspecifiedApocalypse went down. Instead, it comes across as a rather inane and senseless accusation.
** Many viewers had a hard time keeping a straight face to hear that Furiosa's AmazonBrigade goes by the hilariously on-the-nose name ''Vuvalini''. [[SarcasmMode What, was "Clitorati" already trademarked?]]

** '''A lot''' of the movie is narm, mainly due to all the unnecessary MindScrew elements.
** "GET OUT OF MY BRAIN! GO BACK TO WHERE YOU BELONG!"

* In ''Film/MatchstickMen'', when Creator/NicolasCage's character freaks out in the pharmacy. The funniest nervous breakdown ever, and Cage has done ''many'' good/amusing ones in his career. Videos are [[http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=7TU28J8_2OU here]] and [[http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=Jd6QgqbIyh4&feature=related here]]. Watch out especially for his one-line Jamaican accent.
* From ''Film/MeetJoeBlack'': Creator/BradPitt spends about three minutes standing in the middle of the street looking back at his love interest, when... [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VDdN_b6TjYo It needs to be seen to be believed.]]
* ''Mega Piranha'' is already SoBadItsGood, but [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_mMEDRdcMeo the scene]] where some guy is knocked on his back and attacked by a swarm of giant piranha which he kicks out of the way takes the cake.

* ''Film/MinorityReport'' is a serious, sometimes-disturbing and always-absorbing film - until you realise that the police are using vomit-inducing weapons for crowd control, and that said weapons are called ''sick sticks''.
** Or the scene with the organ. What should have been a really dramatic moment was utterly ruined by the fact that ''none of the keys were pushed down''. Considering this is a Spielberg movie with a budget in excess of 100 million, you'd imagine they could have afforded some tape to stick them down.
* The beginning of ''The Miracle Worker'': Kate started screaming when she found that her child was blind and deaf. But it was [[LargeHam so overdone!]]
--> HELEN! HELEN! HELEN!
** This works much better on the stage, where it was originally performed.
** The "Mama! Papa! SHE KNOWS!" scene was spoofed in the episode of ''Series/StrangersWithCandy'' where Jerri learns to read, including one element you don't necessarily notice if you're not looking: After yelling this line, Annie Sullivan throws up her hands and just falls right out of frame while the family joyously and obliviously group-hugs.

* ''Film/MississippiBurning'', given its premise of racism in Mississippi, has a pretty serious tone through most of the movie. However, when one character yells at another down a hallway with cries of "Mr. Anderson" with the cadence of [[Film/TheMatrix Agent Smith]], the dramatic tone fizzles quickly into unintentional hilarity. Fortunately, this only affects that one scene.
* The final scene of ''Film/TheMist''. When the [[spoiler:tanks come in]] with the most ''[[DiabolusExMachina contrivedly poor timing imaginable]]'', it's laughable. When [[spoiler:the woman who [[StupidGood walked headlong into the killer mist to save her children]]]] drives by, it's ''hilarious''.
** The protagonist's breakdown is doubly hilarious when his friends pointed out his silly sobs as his face contorted into the least convincing sad-face in all of cinema.
* ''Literature/MommieDearest'' is infamous for its narm. Even the ''director and lead actress'' repudiated many of the worst scenes, particularly the classic "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XOILKHmZBwc NO... WIRE... HANGERS... EVEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRR!]]" line.
-->'''Joan''': Why can't you give me the '''''RESPECT''''' that I'm entitled to? Why can't you treat me like I would be treated by ''any stranger on the '''street'''''? \\
'''Christina''': [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fqM1ttqNA9k BECAUSE I'M NOT ONE OF YOUR FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANS!]]
** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hpY0tmpLZBsTINA! BRING ME THE AXE!!]]"
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7n1uwzYOBa0 You LOVE to make ME hit YOUUUUUUU!!]]
* From ''Film/MortalKombatAnnihilation''
--> '''Kitana:''' Mother, you're alive.
--> '''Sindel:''' Too bad YOU... will die.
** The Elder Gods declaring at the end, "The fate of the universe will be decided as it should be... IN MORTAL KOMBAT!!!!" just tends to unintentionally lampshade how utterly absurd the whole concept of the franchise is.
** During the final battle when Shao Kahn beats down Liu Kang, he makes ''barking dog noises''.

** On a side note: If only [[Film/TheLordOfTheRings Gollum]] had possessed that power...

* Creator/SandraBullock is so unintentionally amusing in ''Film/MurderByNumbers'' that it derails the rest of her filmography for some...
--> "It's a freaking baboon hair!"
** Yes, that ''is'' the line used in the theatrical version.
*** It gets even {{Narm}}ier when her character gets tackled and bitten by said baboon when she finds it. Other movies would have played that for the absolutely bizarre, ridiculous experience that it was -- ''Film/MurderByNumbers'' decided that it was a good time for Bullock to deploy the Very Serious PTSD Flashback. (PTSD flashbacks = DudeNotFunny; PTSD flashbacks induced by a ''random baboon attack'' = unintentional hilarity.)
** When Bullock is told her theory doesn't fit the profile of the killers, and snaps "The profile doesn't fit the profile!" It also didn't help that this absurd and meaningless line made it into a lot of the ads.

* ''Film/MusicOfTheHeart'' is loaded with narm. It's quite unfortunate, because the true story on which it is based is genuinely inspiring. The film wastes good source material, good casting and good music on [[PlayingAgainstType director Wes Craven]] and first-time screenwriter Pamela Gray. There is a lot of chunky exposition to the camera, unnecessary embellishment of real events, and a good deal of histrionics -- see whenever Roberta yells at her really nice mom or her really nice kids. The characterisation of Roberta is garishly inconsistent -- an incredible feat, considering Roberta Guaspari is ''a real person''. When Creator/MerylStreep starts to look like a bad actress, you know the script is beyond salvation.
* Vada's habit of singing "Doo Wah Diddy Diddy" fast when she's upset tends to ruin what are supposed to be emotional moments in ''Film/MyGirl''.

* Oh God, ''Film/NightOfTheLepus'', with the giant killer ''bunnies''. ''Cute, fluffy'' giant killer bunnies.
--> "Ladies and gentlemen, there is a herd of killer rabbits headed this way! Roll up your windows!"
* ''Film/NightOfTheLivingDead1968'': '''"JOHNNY'S STILL OUT THERE!"'''
--> "A ''radio!''"

* ''Film/NinjaAssassin'' has an unforgettable scene where the hero and his potential love interest are tending bonsai trees.
-->'''Raizo:''' Trees don't have hearts.
-->'''Kiriko:''' Everything has a heart.
-->'''Raizo:''' I don't.
-->'''Kiriko:''' Want me to check? ''(she applies her ear to his chest)'' Yes. It says "Hello!" It misses you.
* ''Film/NoHoldsBarred'': [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0wYs-0EO0ts DOOOOOOOOOO-KIIIIIEEEEE!!!!]]

--> ([[BreakTheCutie Pepe el Toro]], embracing his [[TooGoodforThisSinfulEarth dead baby]] which is VERY obviously [[SpecialEffectFailure "played" by a doll]]): '''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ozMnHwFqYTU TORITOOOOOO!]]'''
** Yes people, that's the scene that [[TropeNamers gives the name]] [[Es/{{Torito}} to the Spanish version of this trope]]

* You could write a ''book'' about all the Narm in ''Film/TheNumber23''. To start off... the main character in the eponymous book is named '''''[[InherentlyFunnyWords Fingerling]]'''''. They try to write it off by claiming it's the name of the author's favorite children's book, but did ''no one'' working on the movie realize the potential hilarity of that name?
** The part where Walter's wife screams, "Look at all the BEAUTIFUL TWENTY-THREES! You don't want to DISAPPOINT them, DO YOU?"

* ''Film/{{Oblivion 2013}}'': The look on Jack's face as he's falling after the Scavs cut his line is... rather hilarious.

* That famous scene from ''Film/AnOfficerAndAGentleman'', when Zack screams, '''"DON'T YOU DO IT!! I GOT NOWHERE ELSE TO GOOOO!!!!!"''' is meant to show the audience how much pain the character is in. Except Richard Gere is ''really'' [[ChewingTheScenery overacting]] in it, making the scene really REALLY funny. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T575Pbo4eWM Go watch that scene]], and wonder why Gere hasn't done any real comedies outside of those cheesy [[RomanticComedy romantic ones]].
** It gets even worse if you're a fan of Mystery Science Theater 3000, as Tom Servo is fond of imitating the line whenever extreme melodrama is happening.

* The scene in ''Film/OneFlewOverTheCuckoosNest'' where [[spoiler:[=McMurphy=] was given shock treatment]].

** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6z197STS4Mg See for yourself.]]
** Matt Dillon is such a ham...
---> '''LET'S DO IT FO' JOHNNY!!'''
*** Dillon would later complain that Creator/FrancisFordCoppola used the most over-the-top take of that line.

* ''Film/PacificRim'':
** For Trans-Tasman audiences, the presence of the [[FakeNationality Australian]] Hansens and their atrocious accents are enough to set off fits of laughter.
** Mako's [[spoiler:final words to Pentecost, "aishiteru, sensei" aka "I love you, teacher",]] can be a little jarring to native Japanese speakers, since "[[spoiler:aishiteru]]" is a very unusual thing for a Japanese person to say. It would have been more natural if she left it at "Sensei..."

* Mink Stole's best line in ''Film/PinkFlamingos'':
--> They castrated him! '''''His penis is gone!'''''

* Creator/EdWood's screenplays are full of embarrassing dialogue and narration. From ''Film/Plan9FromOuterSpace'':
--> [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XhvDMhrws1o Your stupid minds! Stupid! ''STUPID!'']].\\
"Let 'im finish!"
** Also from that film:
---> "Now hold on a minute!"\\
"No, ''you'' hold on!"
-->"Because all you of Earth are ''IDIOTS''!"

-->"One thing is sure... Inspector Clay is dead, ''murdered'', and somebody's responsible!

-->"What do you think will be the next obstacle the Earth people will put in our way?"\\
"Well, as long as they can think, we'll have our problems."
** Every line of narraton spoken by Criswell. The dialogue itself is bizarre, and his overly bombastic delivery doesn't help matters.

* Creator/EricRobert's crying in ''Pope of Greenwich Village'': "THEY TOOK MY THUMB, CHAAAAARRRLLLLIIIIIIIEEEE!!!! THEY TOOK MY THUMB!!!"

* ''Film/{{Predator}}'' has that infamous quote as Arnold is going down the river:
--> "RUN! GO! [[strike:GET TO THE CHOPPA!]] ''' ''[[MemeticMutation GET TOO ZE CHOPPA!]]'' '''"
** When Arnold realizes he's been played by Carl Weathers's character:
---> "ET ZALL BOOL SHET!!! ALL OV ET!"
** When Ahnold is beating Carl Weathers at arm wrestling:
---> "What's the mattah? CIA got you pooshing too many PAHNSEALS?"
** In [[Film/{{Predator 2}} the second movie]], it could be argued that the sight of a badass, invisible alien hunter saying "Want some candy?" falls directly into Narm.
* In the British film ''Pressure,'' pretty much anything the mother says is narm. She is overly-dramatic to the worst extent.
* Creator/KarlUrban is just terribly narmy as the villain in the loose film adaptation of ''Film/{{Priest 2011}}''. His character has a grandiosity that does not suit the mood of the film.
* ''Film/{{The Princess|2022}}'': ALL of the dialogue is so cliched and predictable that you could make a drinking game out of predicting what each character's next line will be.
* From the remake of ''Film/PromNight2008'': they tried hard to scare the audience by having the protagonist bump into a lamp.

* Okay, ''Film/{{Psycho}}'' is a fantastically creepy movie and justly regarded as one of the greatest films ever made. That said, Anthony Perkins looks... ''silly'' [[spoiler:in old lady drag]]. [[Film/{{Psycho 1998}} Vince Vaughn]] looks even worse.
* ''The Puppet Masters''. How does the Julie Warner character know something is not quite right with the teenage boys? They weren't trying to look down her blouse. No, really.

* ''Film/JawsTheRevenge''. The shark ''[[CriticalResearchFailure roars]],'' and is killed by ramming into it with the prow of a boat... which causes it to ''[[MadeOfPlasticine explode]]''.

* ''Film/TheIrishman'' is an otherwise well-acclaimed film that features a "fight scene" when Frank confronts the shopkeeper who earlier shoved his daughter, clearly intended to be a genre CallBack to the [[NoHoldsBarredBeatdown hilariously over-the-top beatdowns]] from Scorsese's older movies, but instead it is hilarious [[FightSceneFailure for all the wrong reasons]]. Frank is played by a 76 year-old Creator/RobertDeNiro [[DigitalDeAging made to look like a man in his early thirties through the wonder of CGI wizardry]], but he still ''moves'' like a man in his late-seventies: as the shopkeeper crawls out into the street, Frank stiffly shuffles up to him and delivers weak kicks while clearly struggling to avoid falling over, and the kicks are accompanied by the other actor's [[MinorInjuryOverreaction agonized screaming]] and [[KungFoley very loud WHACK sounds]] that don't match the intensity of the beating. Not only that, but the glass on the shop door, which is clearly supposed to break when Frank throws the shopkeeper into it, [[SpecialEffectsFailure instead]] breaks when the shopkeeper crawls up to the door on his own and touches the handle as De Niro can't quite pull off the stunt. While the previous scene (with Frank talking to his daughter about the incident) is directed and acted with the brilliance we expect from Creator/MartinScorsese and Creator/RobertDeNiro, and the film overall is an admirable one last outing from the legends that made the genre great, it is quite baffling that Scorsese thought he could get away with a scene that looks so amateurish.

* ''Film/JaneEyre''

* The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nAdniWncWu4 death scene]] from the 1973 Turkish film ''Karateci Kız'' has circulated the web as the "Worst Death Scene Ever", and not without reason.

* In the 2004 version of ''Film/KingArthur'', there's the point where Arthur is up on the hill, and Lancelot and the other knights ride up to help fight against the Saxons. Very awe-inspiring, except when the camera turns to Lancelot's face and shows him ''smirking'' at Arthur.

** The [[SpecialEffectFailure CGI prairie dogs]]. Really, Spielberg?

* ''Film/IKnowWhoKilledMe'': "Let's win this one for ''Jennifer Toland''!"

** ''Film/ForYourEyesOnly'''s score is more suitable for ''Film/{{Flashdance}}'' than for 007.

** When Grant bursts into his trailer on the dig-site... to be met with Hammond bent over, ass in the air, rummaging through his fridge with a bad VPL.
*** How was that not intentional comedy? It's hardly a dead-serious scene.

** Creator/LauraDern as Dr. Satler is ''horrifically'' narmy throughout the film, numerous examples include: her high school play shocked-face on seeing the Brachiosaur for the first time, her wincing sobs of joy on encountering an unwell Triceratops, smashing her arm into a massive pile of dino-shit, her goofy running - "ru-uuuuuun!!", the bizarre and slightly un-hinged "Mr Hammond, I think we're back in business!" line when she reboots the power and finally - "S'GONNA COME THROUGH THE GLAAAASSSS!". Oh and also - "Look, we'll discuss sexism in a survival situation when I get back"... just ''awful''.

* The film version of Creator/AndrewLloydWebber's ''Film/ThePhantomOfTheOpera2004'' has many examples, from Creator/EmmyRossum's stilted line readings to Creator/PatrickWilson's wig, from masquerade dancers doing the Robot to all that angsting over a face that could be considered "hideously disfigured" only by the broadest definitions of HollywoodHomely.
** Especially considering Christine calls it "so distorted, deformed, it was hardly a face"! Yes, she's a naive scared [[TheIngenue Ingenue]], but there are limits!
** The protagonist sings dramatically while ''being choked.''
** The dancers in the background of the "Point of No Return" scene. One ''Phantom of the Opera'' community refers to them as the "[[Film/ThePrincessBride Dread Pirate Roberts]] dancers".
** The horse in the middle of the title song: What's meant to be a tense, dramatic moment as the Phantom leads a bewitched Christine to his lair is made absolute Narm the moment the FridgeLogic hits--''how and why the hell did he get a horse into the sewers under the opera house''? Sure, it's supposed to be stylized and surreal, but the oh-so-pretty pony leaves people in stitches. The Paris Opera does have its own stables, and a horse figures in this scene in both [[Literature/ThePhantomOfTheOpera the original novel]] and [[Film/ThePhantomOfTheOpera1925 the silent film adaptation]]. But in this film, it's used to convey Christine down one short length of hallway and then promptly abandoned. And for bonus points, Creator/TheBBC documentary ''Behind the Mask'' (about the original London staging) revealed there were plans to incorporate a horse into the stage version of the sequence, but it was dropped ''because'' it looked silly.
*** The title song is supposed to be scary and demonstrate the Phantom's power of suggestion, but the moving candelabras remind some people of [[WesternAnimation/BeautyAndTheBeast another moving candelabra]].
** Then there's the Phantom's toy opera house. Theoretically, the scenes of him moving around figurines of the other characters provide a [[TheChessmaster Chessmaster]] vibe; but he may just look like [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LMxTFqPET5I Dark Helmet playing with his dolls again]].
** Also from the film, any time Christine is singing. Yes, you recorded the songs in a sound studio; but don't just LIPSYNCH! Throat muscles can move, too!
*** Yes, and at the end of "Think Of Me" -- you don't change pitch by moving your jaw up and down!
** "Clearly, Madame Giry, genius... has turned... into MADNESS." With Gerard Butler playing the Phantom, it's difficult to hear this line and not shout [[PunctuatedForEmphasis the obvious response]]. Plus, Raoul comes across as the OnlySaneMan in light of the Phantom's just-revealed backstory. (In the stage version, his backstory was only recounted through dialogue.)
** The dialogue after [[spoiler: Christine kissed the Phantom]] is simply hilarious.
** Creator/GerardButler is not the ideal voice of the Phantom. First, he's singing an octave low, and he's singing badly. The Phantom is meant to be an otherworldly operatic genius, but Butler can barely hit the notes at half their usual range. Wrong, bad... ''etc.'' All that remains -- is the problem Lloyd Webber's casting or Joel Schumacher's direction? [[http://www.filmtracks.com/titles/phantom_opera.html This review]] of the soundtrack album sums up the issue well.
*** The rest of the accent soup is no better than the Phantom's brogue. Why is Miranda Richardson talking like WesternAnimation/PepeLePew?
*** In the very beginning of the movie an auction is being held on various memorabilia from the events of the story, including the infamous chandalier. It's lot number? 666. It's almost as they're hinting at some sort of symbolysm in the story!
* Speaking of ''Phantom of the Opera'', from [[Film/ThePhantomOfTheOpera1925 the Lon Chaney silent film]]: The Phantom's last action before death in it is miming an invisible grenade, and then an abrupt surrender which can be interpreted as "Naw, I'm just messing with you."

-->"Believe in my love, Raoul, and save me from that monster--oh, save me!"

* During the finale of ''Film/TheMatrix'', Neo kicks the Agent. He proceeds to leave his leg stiff, foot above waist level as he moves it from facing forward to facing his side, then slowly lowers it. Surely intended to be dramatic, but it came across as silly.
** The way he nonchalantly says "no" sounds less like a man commanding bullets to stop and more like telling a cashier whether he wants fries with his burger.
*** To be fair, once Neo gets his God powers, stopping the bullets is probably as simple as telling a cashier whether he wants fries with his burger. If he had to do an epic "NOOOO" then it would have falling into Narm territory.
** The bit where he fights the Agent off with one arm whilst looking slightly bored/stoned.
* ''Film/TheMatrixReloaded'' has the rather infamous [[FanDisservice sex scene between Neo and Trinity]] in the rave. Made made worse by the fact that it's very hard to tell just whose ass you're looking at, Creator/KeanuReeves' or Creator/CarrieAnneMoss'.
* In ''Film/TheMatrixRevolutions'', the death of Trinity was meant to be poignant; but somehow, when the camera panned to her impaled body...
** [[FinalSpeech The worst part is that her dying words end up being a dying monologue. It's hard to keep the scene dramatic when Trinity just keeps talking.]]
** Creator/HugoWeaving's stupid-looking EvilLaugh after [[spoiler:consuming The Oracle]].
** "...There is no spoon." It's supposed to be profound and philosophical, but Keanu Reeves' delivery makes it hilarious.
** In Neo's climatic battle with Smith, his mighty slow-motion punch to the face is suddenly rendered hilarious by Hugo Weaving's comically distorted face on impact.
** Whilst hanging on for dear life above a twenty-foot drop, the building which Neo is hanging onto shakes slightly, drawing attention to the fact that the scenery was made of styrofoam. It was funnier than the scene was originally intended to be.
** Agent Smith's monotone interrogation was actually hilarious due to the delivery. Until the bugs show up.
** Neo and Trinity walk into a building and shed their cloaks, each carrying ''eight'' guns.
** "[[VerbThis Dodge This]]"
** Neo referring to a major theme of the trilogy during the final battle: "Because I... choose to."
** Pointed out by WebVideo/TheNostalgiaCritic, the liberal use of the words "choice" and "purpose" in the trilogy makes lines where one of the words is shoehorned in, like "let's move with purpose", unintentionally funny.

** The bad dream in which a raptor suddenly appears and says "Alan" as [[CrashingDreams someone is saying his name to wake him up]].

* The Creator/NatalieWood vehicle ''Film/InsideDaisyClover'' is already campy, but tips over into outright narm at various points, none more so than the ending sequence in which [[spoiler: Daisy is repeatedly interrupted from committing suicide by her phone ringing]].

** ''Film/LiveAndLetDie'': Kanaga/Mr. Big's death via compressed air pellet gets bigger laughs on accident than any of the other gags in the movie can by sincerely trying. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CBncb56Z_xI See for yourself.]]

*** YMMV there. Some people found a lot of Silva's serious moments to be unintentionally funny due to his childish baby-talk way of speaking. But then, as said, this may be ''[[PsychopathicManchild precisely why]]'' people found him creepy.
*** Face it, it's hard to take the final battle in ''Skyfall'' seriously due to its comparisons to the climax of the ''Film/HomeAlone'' movies.
** "You are a kite dancing in a hurricane, Mr. Bond." As hard as it tries, ''Film/{{Spectre}}'' really doesn't have quite the impact to back that line up. So it becomes this, [[spoiler: especially since it gets repeated later in the film.]]
*** The film pouring all the drama it can into [[spoiler:Oberhauser revealing his name is now Blofeld. Just like the reveal of the villain's identity in ''Film/StarTrekIntoDarkness'', the theatrics are entirely for the benefit of the out-of-universe audience, as the name has never been mentioned before in this specific iteration and means absolutely nothing to the in-universe characters[[note]]The movie tries to pretend it has meaning, with it being Mrs. Oberhauser's maiden name, but it still amounts to nothing[[/note]]. And that's before you get into the fact that this moment also duplicates an important plot point from ''Film/AustinPowersInGoldmember'' in complete seriousness, or that we are expected to believe that Oberhauser went from the son of a mountain climber to the founder and head of the world's most powerful terrorist/criminal empire with zero explanation of how he achieved this]].
*** Oberhauser's character, period. From Creator/ChristophWaltz's over-the-top performance, to the bizarre amounts of FoeYay that culminates in Oberhauser ''drawing a heart'' in his breath on a glass window while Bond looks on, to the insinuation [[spoiler:Oberhauser devoted his whole existence to elaborately ruining Bond's life just because Bond took his father's attention away for a few months during their childhood]], and the result is less "scary evil mastermind" than it is a pathetic manchild with way too much time on his hands.
*** "It was me, James. The author of all your pain." It's not just the [[EvilIsHammy delivery]] of that line, but the fact that it also begs the question, "What, ''all'' of it?"
*** The opening credits sequence: Craig's films' credits had been more sober and less blatantly fanservicey with more references and foreshadowing to the plot itself. The ones for Spectre harken back to the oversexed credits of the Brosnan era, with very few moments that don't consist of naked girls or naked Bond or tentacles, sometimes all together [[SoundtrackDissonance with a love song]]. As pointed out by at least one reviewer, they do make one think of [[AllAnimeIsNaughtyTentacles tentacle porn]].
*** Madeleine telling Bond that he's "a good man" is utterly laughable--007 ''kills people in cold-blood for a living''. He does it all for the greater good, but he's ''definitely'' not an angel. She even repeatedly calls him that earlier in the film.
*** Mr White also comes across as ridiculous when saying that Blofeld pushed himself too far and his actions result in killing women and children, when Quantum had been established as a terrorist organization which even tried to deprive a whole country of their water supplies.
*** Daniel Craig's inexplicable bellowed delivery of the line "Of course, Mr. White!" You half expect him to turn to the camera and say "Everybody got that?"
*** The idea that Spectre is a superior organization to Quantum is a little bit laughable given how lightly Spectre takes operational security. In ''Spectre'' Bond is able to sneak into a high-level meeting between Spectre bosses simply by showing up with a Spectre ring, whereas in ''Film/QuantumOfSolace'' Quantum bosses actually make a point of blending inside a crowd and avoiding direct contacts between each other.
*** Bond manages to blow up the entire bad guy base in Africa by simply shooting one exposed vent.
*** Bond breaks the champagne flutes when it is clear Sciarra has no interest in ''just'' talking to him. The scene serves no purpose whatsoever. Also, it does not occur to Bond that 1) glass shards on the floor are actually really dangerous, and that 2) Sciarra actually has to clean the shards up once they're done fucking.

* ''WesternAnimation/TheLionKing2019'' turns Scar's murder of Mufasa, one of the most dramatic moments of the original movie, into an absolute farce. It's practically a microcosm of everything the remake does worse. The animal models' chronic DullSurprise kills the weight of the original scene, and the poor staging and bright, cheery lighting ruin what emotion is left. Scar's incredibly melodramatic delivery of "Long live the king!" would be bad enough if he didn't then, for lack of a better word, bitchslap Mufasa into the gorge. As the punchline, Simba ''squeaks'' his BigNo, guaranteeing fits of highly inappropriate laughter. Even the most passionate viewer couldn't take this scene seriously.

* "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a5R_pS0h5Qk You maniacs! You blew it all up!]]" as said by Creator/CharltonHeston in ''Film/PlanetOfTheApes1968''. The viewer has known that [[spoiler:the planet is Earth]] since ten minutes after the landing ([[AllThereIsToKnowAboutTheCryingGame even if the viewer in question has lived under a rock and hasn't heard the premise of the movie]]). But when Heston's character sees [[spoiler:the broken Statue of Liberty]] at the very end (just a few frames before we do), he [[HeroicBSOD cracks up,]] pounding sand and screaming.

* In ''Film/IndianaJonesAndTheKingdomOfTheCrystalSkull,'' there is a scene where BigBad Irina Spalko is hanging from a tree branch over a swarm of army ants. What do the ants decide to do? ''Climb up over each other to get to her!'' Real life army ants ''do'' build structures out of each other like that, but still.

** '''Alot''' of the movie is narm, mainly due to all the unnecessary MindScrew elements.

** Whilst hanging on for dear life above a twenty foot drop, the building which Neo is hanging onto shakes slightly, drawing attention to the fact that the scenery was made of styrofoam. It was funnier than the scene was originally intended to be.

* ''Film/MusicOfTheHeart'' is loaded with narm. It's quite unfortunate, because the true story on which it is based is genuinely inspiring. The film wastes a good source material, good casting and good music on [[PlayingAgainstType director Wes Craven]] and first-time screenwriter Pamela Gray. There is a lot of chunky exposition to the camera, unnecessary embellishment of real events, and a good deal of histrionics -- see whenever Roberta yells at her really nice mom or her really nice kids. The characterisation of Roberta is garishly inconsistent -- an incredible feat, considering Roberta Guaspari is ''a real person''. When Creator/MerylStreep starts to look like a bad actress, you know the script is beyond salvation.
