Mike Myers' film
The Love Guru has been named the Worst Movie of 2008.
The film, which also stars Justin Timberlake and Jessica Alba, topped the list by
The New York Post newspaper, which claims it is unfunny and embarrassing.
Explaining why the movie had topped the chart, the paper said: "Films like
The Love Guru and 2003's
The Cat in the Hat are destroying all the comedy credibility Myers built through the Wayne's World movies and Austin Powers films. Thank goodness for
Shrek.
The Love Guru also stars acting legends Jessica Alba and Justin Timberlake."
Next on the list is Paris Hilton's
The Hottie and the Nottie, with Katie Holmes'
Mad Money and Cameron Diaz'
What Happens in Vegas also featuring in the top five.
On Paris' latest foray into film, the paper wrote: "Is it worth describing the plot to this Paris Hilton-starred stinker? We won't bother, because you shouldn't bother watching it. According to Box Office Mojo, the film grossed less than $1.6 million as of November 26, which sounds generous."
What Happens in Vegas drew an equally scathing comment: "The easy joke is that this bomb should have stayed in Vegas. We took the easy way out."
