I think people need to stop judging their least favourite films on how much action is in it, and look at all factors in it. You would also have to use films you think are great to compare it too, to try and justify your reason for thinking it is terrible.
I think Cast Away is a great movie - not a lot happens in the action department, but it is very "reflective". It shows the things we take for granted, and also how things can change so quickly. It takes (Chuck?) him ages to get a fire going on the island; to get heat and light. When he does, he is so happy. He is literally jumping for joy. Then when he gets back to the USA, he can get fire at the press of a button (on the lighter), he can get light just by pressing a switch, etc. The one thing that kept him going while he was "Cast Away" was the thought of his girlfriend (soon to be fiancee), as well as the volleyball which he considered his best friend (some would say he was insane, but it was survival). Then when he eventually escapes the island, he loses his friend, and later, his girlfriend too.
Quite a deeply thought out film if you watch it a few times.
Sound of Music is an ok movie in my opinion, but I don't think you could class it as the worst... It was just about the biggest film of its time.
I've watched both Fast and Furious movies - they are ok films. The first one has too much plot, and not enough action, and the second has too much action and not enough plot - they should have worked on the balance a bit better. The acting isn't too brilliant, but its passable.
I found Titanic boring (2/3s of romantic stuff, then about 1/3 of the ship sinking), but then again, millions of people watched it and loved it.
Pearl Harbour I think is an ok movie. Its a bit like Titanic in a sense - too much drama going on, before you get to the interesting part. When you get to the action though, it is very good. The action sequences are filmed very well. Shame it isn't a bit more historically accurate.
I liked Perfect Storm. Such a sad (and true) story of loss of life. Like Cast Away, you have to watch it a few times to notice the deeper story within.
The worst movie,
I have ever seen is Tomb Raider (1). While the action was ok, and the acting wasn't bad, it just had no visible plot. It felt like they had just taken a load of action sequences, stuck them together and called it a film.
I hate most movies where the only reason "people" like them is because the actress in them has a large bra size. They then say the actress is such a great actress.
That isn't to say they are the worst.
