Criticism

[edit]

The Razzie nominating ballot for the 42nd edition was criticized for snubbing critically panned performances and films, including He's All That and Thunder Force among others while also nominating mostly irrelevant and unknown films. It also received criticism for the fact that the "Worst Screen Combo" category had no actual couples of actors, and its inclusion for performances by Ben Affleck from the critically acclaimed film The Last Duel and Jared Leto from House of Gucci for Worst Supporting Actor;[5] both ultimately received nominations. Conversely, Leto received nominations for Best Supporting Actor by the Critics Choice Association[6] and Screen Actors Guild.[7] A reviewer for the website The Avocado was particularly critical of Affleck's nomination, stating that he "gave one of the year's best performances" in The Last Duel, writing: "Was it silly? Of course it was and it was perfect for the role."[5] The same reviewer also criticized Leto's nomination, writing that he "doesn't deserve to be on here either" and arguing that he was "perfectly cast as a pathetic little moron that's in over his head" in House of Gucci.[5]
