The most disappointing film sequels of all time

'A Good Day to Die Hard' (2013)

'A Good Day to Die Hard' (2013), 'Zoolander 2' (2016), 'The Next Karate Kid' (1994), 'Scary Movie 5' (2015), 'Jaws: The Revenge' (1987), 'Transformers: The Last Knight' (2017), 'Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason' (2004), 'Superman IV: The Quest for Peace' (1987), 'Spider-Man 3' (2007), 'The Lost World: Jurassic Park' (1997), 'Grease 2' (1982), 'Police Academy 4: Citizens on Patrol' (1987), 'Dumb and Dumberer: When Harry Met Lloyd' (2003), 'Cheaper by the Dozen 2' (2005)

Despite our initial belief that things couldn't deteriorate further following 'Live Free or Die Hard,' they astonishingly succeeded. 'Die Hard' series should have concluded many films ago, and you can tell that Bruce Willis' heart isn't in it anymore.

'Zoolander 2' (2016)

'Zoolander' remains a timeless comedy. However, why revive this underwhelming remake after 15 years? Despite the extensive celebrity appearances, the impact was minimal.

'The Next Karate Kid' (1994)

'A Good Day to Die Hard' (2013), 'Zoolander 2' (2016), 'The Next Karate Kid' (1994), 'Scary Movie 5' (2015), 'Jaws: The Revenge' (1987), 'Transformers: The Last Knight' (2017), 'Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason' (2004), 'Superman IV: The Quest for Peace' (1987), 'Spider-Man 3' (2007), 'The Lost World: Jurassic Park' (1997), 'Grease 2' (1982), 'Police Academy 4: Citizens on Patrol' (1987), 'Dumb and Dumberer: When Harry Met Lloyd' (2003), 'Cheaper by the Dozen 2' (2005)

'The Next Karate Kid' was an additional fourth installment in the 'Karate Kid' series, deemed unnecessary by many. Though Pat Morita and a young Hilary Swank delivered good performances, the movie's attempt to prolong the franchise appeared rather weak.

'Scary Movie 5' (2015)

'A Good Day to Die Hard' (2013), 'Zoolander 2' (2016), 'The Next Karate Kid' (1994), 'Scary Movie 5' (2015), 'Jaws: The Revenge' (1987), 'Transformers: The Last Knight' (2017), 'Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason' (2004), 'Superman IV: The Quest for Peace' (1987), 'Spider-Man 3' (2007), 'The Lost World: Jurassic Park' (1997), 'Grease 2' (1982), 'Police Academy 4: Citizens on Patrol' (1987), 'Dumb and Dumberer: When Harry Met Lloyd' (2003), 'Cheaper by the Dozen 2' (2005)

The 'Scary Movie' film series is juvenile at the best of times, but number five takes the cake. As one critic put it: "A film composed almost entirely of jokes that were much funnier when you read them on Twitter years ago."

'Jaws: The Revenge' (1987)

'A Good Day to Die Hard' (2013), 'Zoolander 2' (2016), 'The Next Karate Kid' (1994), 'Scary Movie 5' (2015), 'Jaws: The Revenge' (1987), 'Transformers: The Last Knight' (2017), 'Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason' (2004), 'Superman IV: The Quest for Peace' (1987), 'Spider-Man 3' (2007), 'The Lost World: Jurassic Park' (1997), 'Grease 2' (1982), 'Police Academy 4: Citizens on Patrol' (1987), 'Dumb and Dumberer: When Harry Met Lloyd' (2003), 'Cheaper by the Dozen 2' (2005)

The final movie of the 'Jaws' series delivered a disappointing blow. The gripping and captivating essence from the initial film was completely absent, with Michael Caine unable to save it.

'Transformers: The Last Knight' (2017)

'A Good Day to Die Hard' (2013), 'Zoolander 2' (2016), 'The Next Karate Kid' (1994), 'Scary Movie 5' (2015), 'Jaws: The Revenge' (1987), 'Transformers: The Last Knight' (2017), 'Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason' (2004), 'Superman IV: The Quest for Peace' (1987), 'Spider-Man 3' (2007), 'The Lost World: Jurassic Park' (1997), 'Grease 2' (1982), 'Police Academy 4: Citizens on Patrol' (1987), 'Dumb and Dumberer: When Harry Met Lloyd' (2003), 'Cheaper by the Dozen 2' (2005)

Despite Mark Wahlberg and Stanley Tucci's involvement, the fifth film of Michael Bay's Transformers series was considered a failure by critics, though not at the box office.

'Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason' (2004)

'A Good Day to Die Hard' (2013), 'Zoolander 2' (2016), 'The Next Karate Kid' (1994), 'Scary Movie 5' (2015), 'Jaws: The Revenge' (1987), 'Transformers: The Last Knight' (2017), 'Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason' (2004), 'Superman IV: The Quest for Peace' (1987), 'Spider-Man 3' (2007), 'The Lost World: Jurassic Park' (1997), 'Grease 2' (1982), 'Police Academy 4: Citizens on Patrol' (1987), 'Dumb and Dumberer: When Harry Met Lloyd' (2003), 'Cheaper by the Dozen 2' (2005)

The second movie of the series, 'Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason,' deviated from relatable dating mishaps. In an unexpected twist, Jones finds herself imprisoned in Thailand due to unknowingly carrying cocaine in her luggage. It appears that the creators may have struggled to generate fresh concepts for this character.

'Superman IV: The Quest for Peace' (1987)

'A Good Day to Die Hard' (2013), 'Zoolander 2' (2016), 'The Next Karate Kid' (1994), 'Scary Movie 5' (2015), 'Jaws: The Revenge' (1987), 'Transformers: The Last Knight' (2017), 'Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason' (2004), 'Superman IV: The Quest for Peace' (1987), 'Spider-Man 3' (2007), 'The Lost World: Jurassic Park' (1997), 'Grease 2' (1982), 'Police Academy 4: Citizens on Patrol' (1987), 'Dumb and Dumberer: When Harry Met Lloyd' (2003), 'Cheaper by the Dozen 2' (2005)

'Superman IV: The Quest for Peace' was released during a period when the Cold War had just ended, making its theme quite relevant. In this movie, Superman embarks on a mission to collect and eliminate all nuclear weapons worldwide. Regrettably, the movie suffers from a lack of excitement and the special effects are poor. Consequently, it adds to the series' previous disappointments, further contributing to its declining quality.

'Spider-Man 3' (2007)

'A Good Day to Die Hard' (2013), 'Zoolander 2' (2016), 'The Next Karate Kid' (1994), 'Scary Movie 5' (2015), 'Jaws: The Revenge' (1987), 'Transformers: The Last Knight' (2017), 'Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason' (2004), 'Superman IV: The Quest for Peace' (1987), 'Spider-Man 3' (2007), 'The Lost World: Jurassic Park' (1997), 'Grease 2' (1982), 'Police Academy 4: Citizens on Patrol' (1987), 'Dumb and Dumberer: When Harry Met Lloyd' (2003), 'Cheaper by the Dozen 2' (2005)

Sam Raimi's final movie in the Spider-Man series, 'Spider-Man 3', marked the end of Toby Maguire's portrayal of the iconic superhero. The film reflects a collective burnout among the team.

'The Lost World: Jurassic Park' (1997)

'A Good Day to Die Hard' (2013), 'Zoolander 2' (2016), 'The Next Karate Kid' (1994), 'Scary Movie 5' (2015), 'Jaws: The Revenge' (1987), 'Transformers: The Last Knight' (2017), 'Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason' (2004), 'Superman IV: The Quest for Peace' (1987), 'Spider-Man 3' (2007), 'The Lost World: Jurassic Park' (1997), 'Grease 2' (1982), 'Police Academy 4: Citizens on Patrol' (1987), 'Dumb and Dumberer: When Harry Met Lloyd' (2003), 'Cheaper by the Dozen 2' (2005)

Steven Spielberg directed 'The Lost World: Jurassic Park', marking the end of the Jurassic Park film series. Despite his brilliance, even he couldn't sustain the franchise indefinitely.

'Grease 2' (1982)

'A Good Day to Die Hard' (2013), 'Zoolander 2' (2016), 'The Next Karate Kid' (1994), 'Scary Movie 5' (2015), 'Jaws: The Revenge' (1987), 'Transformers: The Last Knight' (2017), 'Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason' (2004), 'Superman IV: The Quest for Peace' (1987), 'Spider-Man 3' (2007), 'The Lost World: Jurassic Park' (1997), 'Grease 2' (1982), 'Police Academy 4: Citizens on Patrol' (1987), 'Dumb and Dumberer: When Harry Met Lloyd' (2003), 'Cheaper by the Dozen 2' (2005)

The original 'Grease' is impressive due to its vibrant style, suggestive undertones, and extravagant musical performances. 'Grease 2', on the other hand, fails to capture any of these positive aspects and serves as a reminder that the plot lacks substance.

'Police Academy 4: Citizens on Patrol' (1987)

'A Good Day to Die Hard' (2013), 'Zoolander 2' (2016), 'The Next Karate Kid' (1994), 'Scary Movie 5' (2015), 'Jaws: The Revenge' (1987), 'Transformers: The Last Knight' (2017), 'Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason' (2004), 'Superman IV: The Quest for Peace' (1987), 'Spider-Man 3' (2007), 'The Lost World: Jurassic Park' (1997), 'Grease 2' (1982), 'Police Academy 4: Citizens on Patrol' (1987), 'Dumb and Dumberer: When Harry Met Lloyd' (2003), 'Cheaper by the Dozen 2' (2005)

The 'Police Academy' movie series took things too far in 'Police Academy 4: Citizens on Patrol.' The repetitive and unoriginal slapstick humor is predictable and evident throughout the film.

'Dumb and Dumberer: When Harry Met Lloyd' (2003)

'A Good Day to Die Hard' (2013), 'Zoolander 2' (2016), 'The Next Karate Kid' (1994), 'Scary Movie 5' (2015), 'Jaws: The Revenge' (1987), 'Transformers: The Last Knight' (2017), 'Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason' (2004), 'Superman IV: The Quest for Peace' (1987), 'Spider-Man 3' (2007), 'The Lost World: Jurassic Park' (1997), 'Grease 2' (1982), 'Police Academy 4: Citizens on Patrol' (1987), 'Dumb and Dumberer: When Harry Met Lloyd' (2003), 'Cheaper by the Dozen 2' (2005)

The original creators of 'Dumb and Dumber' were initially reluctant to continue the journey of their protagonists. However, they eventually agreed to let the studio transfer the project to another filmmaker for this prequel, leading to predictable outcomes.

'Cheaper by the Dozen 2' (2005)

'A Good Day to Die Hard' (2013), 'Zoolander 2' (2016), 'The Next Karate Kid' (1994), 'Scary Movie 5' (2015), 'Jaws: The Revenge' (1987), 'Transformers: The Last Knight' (2017), 'Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason' (2004), 'Superman IV: The Quest for Peace' (1987), 'Spider-Man 3' (2007), 'The Lost World: Jurassic Park' (1997), 'Grease 2' (1982), 'Police Academy 4: Citizens on Patrol' (1987), 'Dumb and Dumberer: When Harry Met Lloyd' (2003), 'Cheaper by the Dozen 2' (2005)

'Cheaper by the Dozen 2' served as a follow-up to the remake of the original film, making it rather predictable. Regrettably, the brilliant comic abilities of Steve Martin and Eugene Levy were squandered on this one.
