2019 Razzies Winners: 'Holmes & Watson' Named Worst Picture, Melissa McCarthy Wins & Loses Too
This weekend we have both the Independent Spirit Awards and the Academy Awards honoring the best in film from the year 2018. But before that, the Golden Raspberry Awards needed to announce the 2019 Razzies winners (or losers depending on how you look at it).
This year, the "honors" for Worst Picture went to the disastrous reteaming of Will Ferrell and John C. Reilly in Holmes & Watson. The awful comedy took home four of the awards, but the bullshit antics of Donald J. Trump and his circus cabinet wasn't too far behind with three awards for all their nonsense featured in Michael Moore's documentary Fahrenheit 11/9. Find out the rest of the 2019 Razzies winners below.
Even though the Razzies are all about dumping on the worst movies and performances of the year, there was redemption this year. Melissa McCarthy took home the Razzie Redeemer Award for earning an Oscar nomination this year for Can You Ever Forgive Me?, the best performance of her career so far. However, she also won the Razzie award for Worst Actress thanks to her performances in both The Happytime Murders and Life of the Party, so it's a little bit of good and a little bit of bad.
