The main problem with listing Age of Ultron as one of the worst of the decade is not that it isn't bad, because it is bad, but that there's three other Avengers movies that are even worse.

I think the suggestion that we can just push button, install communism is insulting to the all the adults in the room.

Elysium doesn’t suggest we can. Rather, it says that even if sci-fi bullshit meant we could, we still wouldn’t, which isn’t wrong.

While probably not being the actual worst movie, I think Rise of Skywalker deserves mention for having the greatest gap of what it needed to be vs. what it actually delivered. Like it could have just been an uninspired but competent movie like TFA and it would have been a serviceable capstone to 9 movies spread across decades and generations, but instead, like Game of Thrones' last season, was bad enough that it retroactively worsened everything that came before it.

This is entirely backwards. Seeing even a slick corporate operator like JJ Abrams break under the weight of the Disney machine makes Rise of Skywalker the most interesting of the sequel trilogy and is precisely what was needed to complete a nine-film series about the collapse of freedom under an evil empire.
