X-Men: Apocalypse (2016)
This movie is essentially a profane and blasphemous mockery of God and the Bible. The title of the film and name of its preeminent antagonist, Apocalypse, is taken from the biblical book of John bearing the same title, also called Revelation. Yet, instead of Christ (of whom John's book testifies), we have a mutant who calls himself YHWH and Elohim, who is considered to be "all-powerful," who aspires to be omnipresent, and who says he has returned to cleanse and save the world.
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1990)
The violence in this movie was so problematic back in the 90's that during development, its own producers, actors, actresses, and even Jim Henson, the creator of the turtle suit animatronics, complained that the violent content was excessive. Yet, the violence in this movie pales in comparison to what dominates movies, television, and video games today—how quickly has society fallen and continues to decay!
Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016)
This movie perverts its audience's perception of true justice and righteousness by upholding 3 morally bankrupt candidates as the chief protectors of earth. Superman, who lives with Lois as an unmarried couple, is repeatedly referred to not only as a god, but as God, himself. Together with Batman—a sexually immoral habitual liar, blasphemer, thief, and lawless vigilante—and Wonder Woman, who claims to be an immortal goddess, this team is paraded as champions for good; yet in God's sight, they embody nothing but what is wicked and evil.
Fraudulent Beggars
Matthew Poole (1624–1679) provides helpful insight regarding the question of whether or not one should give to the poor, in light of the fact that some merely pose as beggars, who are yet well off, and others ask for money to buy necessities like food, yet end up using it to indulge in sinful pleasures, instead.
Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer (2007)
The only thing fantastic (unreal) about this group of superheroes is the facade that they are a force for good, because each is portrayed as impenitent, deceptive, immoral, and profane.
