Nothing beats Leonard Part VI (1987) IMO. There is a dialogue scene in which, throughout the entire scene, Mr. Cosby is holding a bottle of Coca-Cola, and it's clear that he's purposely holding it up and out to make sure you don't miss it (people just don't hold Coke bottles that way). I remember critics commenting on that particular scene at the time.

In Hollow Man, there's the scene where the invisible Kevin Bacon keeps moving Elizabeth Shue's can of Coca-Cola around, where the logo is clearly visible at all times to the camera.
And in the Trek reboot, what do we find? Nokia in the car that Young Kirk is driving! Thing is, he drove it better than 'our' Kirk in A Piece Of The Action!
In Stop! Or My Mom Will Shoot, there is a nightmare scene where Stallone's mum in the film holds up a pack of Huggies nappies smack in the middle of the screen. I only saw it on TV but the image would have filled the huge cinema screen...

Not a placement, but I love how many "no fur" signs are littered throughout ASSASSINS. Guess it's ok to kill a zillion people, but no chinchilas!

Not only do they use the ring tone most associated with Nokia phones, but then also brandish about its name on the car console as though Nokia paid for everything in the future. It took me out of the movie for a bit, making me wonder why they even thought it would sound reasonable that Nokia would be around in the 24th Century (it wouldn't) nor that I wanted this sci-fi film to take place in a universe where it would.
Yeah, I mentioned the scene above. But it was the 23rd Century, not 24th - and I doubt Nokia will be around then. It took me out of the film too - but so did the whole car chase thing anyway.

Aside from the obvious fact that someone paid someone money to place products in a film, does it really bother anyone?
have you seen MOONRAKER?!

TERMINATOR SALVATION. In a post-apocalyptic world, apparently Sony Vaio is still around to manufacture the little touch screen pads they use in the movie. Huh? Wuh-fuh?

Then there's Johnny 5 repating the Dr. Pepper catchphrase ("Would you like to be a Pepper too?") over and over as he reads a billboard.
