The dreaded F. These are the abominations littering the sticky cinema screening floor. They waste everyone’s time and money — whether it’s the production studio, the actors or director, the poor crew, and (especially) the viewers. Could they be any worse?
They aren’t worth going straight to video. They aren’t worth seeing free on Netflix.
Really. Rewatch your other favorite shows again and thank us later.

A quick roundup of how we grade movies
We’ve now covered every letter grade here at RunPee and our guidelines for how movies — from transcendent to abysmal — earn their rankings.
Talking about those F Grades
F+ films
I don’t think earning an F+ is any kind of achievement. This is probably why we don’t seem to have any. Generally, if we think if there’s any kind of positive feature in said flick, we bump a film up to a ‘safety’ grade of D-.
A Solid F
If we were the Emperors of Movies, our thumbs down suggests someone’s been executed. Or at least sacked. Said film might have an attractive actor or normally reliable director who just can’t make the movie work, for whatever reason, or some hint of a story that should have been good, but in the end was entirely disappointing.
What people are saying
about the RunPee app.
Brilliant idea with great information
I’ve been using RunPee for a few years now and it’s basically a requirement of going to the movies for me. The best part of course are the “pee times” that give you cues, synopses and times for when you can pee without missing the most important parts of the movie. There is also information about the credits- length, extras and if there are any extra scenes at the wayyy end. Super helpful to just know that it is or isn’t worth staying. There is a timer function that will buzz your phone when it’s a good time to pee. I also appreciate that the app is very conscientious about it being an app you use in a theater- dark background, all silent alarms etc. I will always enjoy the experience of the theater even if I could watch things at home- but I’ve even used it at home to check for things like after credit scenes or other information too.

That’s the bottom line: If you walk away entirely disappointed, you probably sat through an F.
Then, the lowest of the low: F-
We’re an opinionated lot. So we actually have more F- grades than you’d think. I don’t think I personally gave anything a grade this low, but we do have it…and this is reserved for films with no redeeming qualities whatsoever. No goodness. They aren’t even so bad they’re good, unlike The Room.
These travesties are actually offensive, making them worse then entirely disappointing. We’re fairly certain the celluloid needs to be shot behind the barn. Because: rabies.
Was your movie awful AND offensive? F- it is.
Every F grade movie at RunPee (to date, that is):
Want the behind-the-scenes-info on our lowest rankings? Here we go. We apologize if you liked something we panned.
Actually…we aren’t very sorry. We sit through a LOT of movies to get Peetimes for the world. But you can argue in the comments below about why you liked one of our F grades, and we promise to respect you for it. Even if you enjoyed Hellboy 2.
