As we reported at the weekend, Rotorua moviegoers are unlikely to be able to watch local actor Cliff Curtis' latest movie A Thousand Words on the big screen.

The movie, starring Eddie Murphy and currently screening in the US, has been labelled the worst-reviewed movie of all time.

On the movie review website Rotten Tomatoes it has received a thumbs-down from more than 40 international critics who have given an average rating of zero per cent.

On IMDb, the movie got a critics' review rating of 42 per cent from 570 users and on the Metacritic website it scored a dismal 26 per cent. In its review The Guardian newspaper asked: "Is this the worst-reviewed film of all time?"
