That was the title of an article I read online. The writer listed nineteen lip locks that she felt were the worst in cinematic history. Some of the kisses were intentionally bad while others were “misses.”
I glanced through the list and was surprised that the writer included the kiss from Jane Eyre. I enjoyed that film and thought Mia Wasikowska and Michael Fassbender had great chemistry. And, seriously, Michael Fassbender in the worst kiss list? Please.
I would have to agree with the kiss in Maid in Manhattan. I don’t remember a lot of that film but I thought Jennifer Lopez and Ralph Fiennes was a poorly matched couple. I wasn’t emotionally invested in those two getting together.
And then I realized that is what makes a kiss end up on the worst kiss list. If it’s not intentionally ridiculous, it’s all about whether or not you want the couple to be together.
For example, look at the Pretty in Pink kiss. The writer added it on this list. I’m guessing she was on Team Duckie. Most viewers didn’t want Blaine and Andie to get together. They were hoping for Andie to wake up and notice Duckie. That would make any kiss between Blaine and Andie on their worst kiss list.
I haven’t watched most of the movies that were on this list. I don’t know if the kisses were misses because of the anticipation, the situation or lack of chemistry. My guess is that a worst cinematic kiss is the one you didn’t want to happen.

I think you are right, it is weather you want the couple together. Its all a mind thing.
I’m trying to think of a few other movies when I didn’t want the couple together. I’m usually very opinionated about those movies.
It’s difficult imaging a couple together when there is a lack of chemistry.
I think the chemistry makes a big difference. I guess that’s why they will pair an actor and actress over and over again.
Yep… the only worst kiss that I can think of is every single one that Mulder and Scully had, because I was one of those very few non-shippers out there… can’t say they didn’t have any kind of chemistry or whatnot, I just soooo didn’t want them getting together in that way.
So, yep, still in denial over those last two seasons and the baby and all that.

That’s how I am when I don’t like how a storyline is going. I act like the seasons or episodes just don’t exist!
I agree; wasn’t a fan of that movie.
Yeah, I just didn’t like MAID IN MANHATTAN but I’m not sure where it went wrong for me.
It was ok to me strong woman to me
gogli was worst lol
I agree that Tom and Nicole should be on the list. There was something not quite right about them as a couple.
