Captain Corelli's Mandolin, worst movie of all time?

Everytime I used to go to my grandma's house I would always wander through her video collection, which I believed rivalled that our local Blockbuster. I was at grandma's this past weekend for her birthday and I thought I would look through the ol' VHS collection and see if there were any movies I still needed to watch. I borrowed some old favorites (Anne of Green Gables....I almost spelled Anne without an e!) and then I came across Captain Corelli's Mandolin (which is actually on DVD...my grandma has moved on to expanding her DVD collection now). I thought ok yeah this movie looked absolutely ridiculous in the trailer and it bombed at the box office and the critics hated it. But I am sort of obsessed with the Greek landscape and I want to go back some day soon to visit the islands. So I borrowed it, thinking I could just put the mute on and look at the scenery and pretend it was National Geographic video or something. In the end I left the sound. And boy was it amusing. What a freakish assemblage of accents and actors. A Spanish woman playing a Greek woman. A Welshman playing a Greek fisherman. A balding American playing an opera loving, make love not war Italian. I even listened to the commentary a bit because I was curious to hear what the director would have to say about such a crappy movie. He talked about camera angles, lighting, set design, music pretty much trying to avoid any public admission that his movie was a big pile of poo. Well I will say the landscape was very beautiful but the director could not possibly take credit for that. And that was where reality ended. They could not convince me that Penelope's character would ditch Christian Bale (ok so hes illiterate!) for owl eyed Nicholas Cage because he can play a mandolin (thats like guitar for beginners). And apparently the incident where Italian soldiers were massacred by German soldiers on Cephalonia (I think thats how its spelled) is based on true events...its so sad that this movie had to bring attention (to those few who saw it) to that tragic fact. Well thats my rant on CCM.
