The Beach (2000, 19%)
Just two years into Rotten Tomatoes’ infancy, and four years after the groundbreaking

Trainspotting, Danny Boyle’s The Beach was a high-profile embarrassment that caused the

director and his star Leonardo DiCaprio — still in the suffocating afterglow of Titanic — to hit the

comeback trail. Boyle’s next movie would be zombie flick-revitalizer 28 Days Later, while DiCaprio

bided his time subjugating

Don’s Plum. Oh, and starting a

fruitful working relationship with Martin Scorsese.
