The most cringe-worthy one-liners in action films

If you love a little action and entertainment in your life, then you will love these action-packed yet cringe-worthy quotes curated by the Phraset review team. Prepare to groan!

Air Force One

“Get off my plane!”

Can we really believe Harrison Ford as the President of the United States duking it out with Russian hijacker, played by Gary Oldman, who has somehow snuck onto Air Force One. Strange. Very strange.

Batman and Robin

“Alright everybody. Chill!”

Arnold Schwarzenegger made a career out of delivering cheesy one-liners, and this one, plus a ton of other random quips, just don’t make any sense.

Independence Day

“Welcome to Earth!”

This is one of the most disastrous one-liners Will Smith is forced to utter in this trashy movie, but it’s also one of the more memorable ones because he says it after punching an alien in the head.

Hard to Kill

“I'm gonna take you to the bank Senator Trent... to the blood bank.”

Steven Seagal’s movies generally rate high on the cringe-o-meter, and this one in particular is a shocker.

X Men

“You know what happens when a toad gets struck by lightning? The same thing that happens to everything else.''

This super-lame one-liner is said by Storm, played by Halle Berry, just before she electrocutes the bad guy mutant named Toad.

Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones

“I don't like sand. It's coarse, rough and irritating, and it gets everywhere. But not like you. You're everything soft...and smooth."

This is Anakin’s attempt to sweet talk Padme while talking about his dislike for sand. Just weird.

Top Gun

“You are still dangerous… but you can be my wingman anytime.”

Featuring some super corny banter, this one-liner pushes it over the edge between Iceman and Maverick. Even though we love a bromance, this is simply wrong.

The best books of the past few years

Get reading with an exciting book curated by the review team at Phraset.

Underland by Robert Macfarlane (Landmarks, The Lost Words, The Old Ways)

The latest in MacFarlane's unofficial "series" of books on humanity's relationship with natural phenomena, Underland is a tremendous undertaking, often spiritual in its scope, detailing the many ways humans have created our connections with the world underneath the Earth's surface, from swathes of cave paintings within our remotest mountains to webs of grisly catacombs beneath our oldest cities to mines so deep and so silent it's the only place where scientists can listen for the breath of the universe. The winner of 2019's Wainwright Golden Beer Book Prize, a UK-based award for nature books, Underland is a true masterpiece of naturalism, one that will have you in complete and total awe of our world.

Gingerbread by Helen Oyeyemi

Gingerbread is undoubtedly the weirdest book you'll read all year. Helen Oyeyemi's prose pushes and pulls in ways that make every sentence essential; skim too lackadaisically through a paragraph, and you probably missed a crucial detail. In this way, Oyeyemi's writing here feels almost refreshingly dangerous while recounting an unbelievable, hilarious, and wry story about three generations of Lee women hailing from the nonexistent (according to Google) farmstead countryside of Druhástrana, catapulting to Britain, and back. A story within a story (within an account), the novel asks you to trust in its methods -- talking dolls which might also be trees, the suggestion of wealth managing Stormzy, and, of course, the mythic Lee women's gingerbread recipe -- and wholehearted buy-in with few spoilers is the best approach to this cleverly reimagined twisting of the Grimm fairy tale, Hansel and Gretel, which is practically unrecognizable in this form. Never without an ominous cloud hanging over it despite its whimsical airiness, Gingerbread is one of the rare finds where the first reading is a head-spinning delight. Still, a second and third turn would inevitably open the door to the novel's delirious true genius.
