How to spot a crappy movie before watching it and thus not waste 2 hours of your oh so meaningful life?

1. The movie is based on a true story.
2. Filming locations: Bulgaria
3. Starring James Franco

etc.

Is there a movie that combines all of those elements? Must be the crappiest movie ever!

I just saw Goodfellas passing by in trending. That's a very good movie.
