Halle Berry as Catwoman

This has to be one of the most famous of our terrible comic book movie castings on this list. Catwoman was ill-received by just about everyone and there was no question it was terrible.

Often any movie can find supporters but poor Halle Berry and her feline character were shown no mercy by fans, critics, and the general movie going population as a whole. The downfall in the Halle Berry’s casting is that as scripted, the character exists on her own without any real connection to Batman or Gotham, and Berry plays it as such.

Berry painfully overacts like a teenager given her first role in the school play, trying to capture a new essence for Catwoman. We’re all for the recreation of a favorite character but in this case, Berry butchers a favorite. It was never going to be easy to follow Michelle Pfieffer, but this was laughable.
