Wasted premise movies


This movie had such a good premise but really poor execution. Just wondering if any of you had other movies you remember that suffered from this?

I agree: good premise, poor execution.

Other movies? Interesting question.
These are the movies that first come to mind:

What Dreams May Come
Pay It Forward
Independence Day
The Fifth Element
Last Action Hero

I'm not happy with this list. I'm having trouble thinking of really good examples of movies with a strong premise and poor execution. Maybe I'll think of one while I'm eating my soup or taking a shower.

Yeah. I know there were many times I felt that after watching a movie, but couldn't pinpoint any exactly. The only one I could think of was "My Super Ex-Girlfriend".
