The Andromeda Strain 2008
I get that this was a made-for-TV movie in 2008 but the way they pride themselves on having this much bad CG galore everywhere from explosions to silly color filters laid over the landscape, mixed in with some really poor directing and casting (amid some really good actors who can't save any of it), this was just incredibly disappointing. I can see the studio/network notes all over this ("has to have a romance subplot!", "needs rogueish everyman", "more stakes!"). Good lord.
At least they left in a lot of the science and the underlying message.
