DC Comics’ Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and a documentary attacking Hillary Clinton have tied Saturday at the annual Razzie worst-of film awards, Hollywood’s hall of shame.

The rivals won four “Razzies” each for their poor acting, writing and directing, although it was Batman v Superman that walked away with the spray-painted trophy for “worst picture”.

“It all came down to two decidedly different examples of cinematic sludge: The $250 million comic book oop-us Batman v Superman and the faux right wing ‘documentary’ Hillary’s America: The Secret History of the Democratic Party,” a statement from the Razzies read.

Dinesh D’Souza picked up the prestigious double of worst actor for his narration and worst director on Hillary’s America, which has an average rating of 1.7 out of 10 on online reviews aggregator Rotten Tomatoes.

The site’s critical consensus reads that the movie has the conservative commentator “once again preaching to the right-wing choir - albeit less effectively than ever.”
