To The Limit  (1995)
Nomination Year: 2007
SYNOPSIS: Colette (Anna Nicole Smith) is an ex-CIA operative seeking revenge against the man responsible for her husband's death. It turns out that he and his organization are currently after a mobster named Frank Bambino (Joey Travolta). So, reluctantly, they join forces in an attempt to destroy the Bambinos. Or maybe that's the absinthe talking, and I just hallucinated this movie....

"WHAT?!"
Drive-Thru Helicopter Service
I've heard of drive-thru service, but this is ridiculous. In order to escape from the bad guys in a helicopter, Anna ... drives through ... the helicopter, escaping during the ensuing explosion. Lucky those helicopter thingies don't have much by way of structural integrity....

"Let's Up The Rating To 'R'"
"I'm Coming!"
It's Anna Nicole Smith in the bath, fooling around solo. There is a knock on the door, she finishes up, and says, "I'm coming!"

Crummiest Ending
Death by AOL!
So many aspects of this movie come together in this scene, sadly. Jameson (the secret bad guy) has been revealed, and is holding a hostage. Frank has a gun on Jameson. There's a lot of "Shoot him, Frank, don't worry about me" going on. Suddenly, Colette shows up, and points a gun at Frank. She forces Frank to give her the CD. Double-cross! Jameson laughs, and says "throw me the CD!" She angles it so that light reflects into Jameson's eyes, then throws the CD. It sticks in Jameson's face diagonally. Triple-cross! His hostage ducks away, Colette and Frank shoot at Jameson, and his dummy falls over the side, and off the Hoover Dam. Then Colette reveals who she really is (quadruple-cross?), everybody has a laugh, and they freeze frame. Or in other words, the C.Hi.P.S. ending.

Worst Acting
She's (point) Acting! (point) See?
Not only does Anna Nicole Smith fail to act as she hunts and pecks her way across a keyboard, she does the same as she points her finger at Frank for emphasis and attempts to emote....
