Jennifer Lopez does not think that her flop breakdown 2003 is one of the worst films of all time

There are certain films which over the years have become a shortcut of the film industry for the fiascos of the box office: “Heaven’s Gate”, “Ishtar”, “Waterworld”, “Cutthroat Island”, and so on. But in truth, I do not know why “waterworld” continues to have the name checked as a massive bomb, because it finally broke out and inspired a massively popular stuntman at Universal Studios Hollywood. As embarrassing: the worst of these films, “Cutthroat Island”, is at least full of breathtaking -developed shows, while “Heaven’s Gate” and “Ishtar” are really large films of two of the most talented directors of their time (Michael Cimino and Elaine May).

I have long considered that the box office of a film is not very worrying for the general public. Once upon a time, if you were interested in cinema, you had to pay for an expensive subscription to Variety or the Hollywood Reporter. Then, “Entertainment Tonight” made their debut in 1981, and suddenly, everyone could keep an eye on the first five films at the box office – however, in the first years, the real brushes were not provided, so it was treated like the Billboard Hot 100, and the context was missing. But although the company’s screen numbers were never mentioned, and would make a big problem with a major star being below first place during the opening weekend of his new film. (“Sylvester Stallone and Dolly Parton” Rhinestone “making its debut in number four cannot be music with 20th Century Fox” ears would be a joke and worthy.)

That a film has become wild Sur-Budget does not concern you. If you want to explore why the studios are struggling at the moment, start with the obscene wages of the executives. Most costumes are rotten human beings who have climbed the business scale by having no morals. They are generally poorly equipped to do their job, have no interest in films and hide their greed / incompetence in dismissing people who are Competent films and love.

The worst leaders also have the appalling tendency to mingle with the production of a film, they were green (or, in some cases, inherited from a previous regime), and when they made fun of everything, they let the Ets of the world do their shame and sensational thing and blame the stars of the film and / or the director. This was the case with the aforementioned films, and it was certainly true for the bomb directed by Ben Affleck by Martin Brest “Gigli”. But unlike these other notorious disasters, “Gigli” has not received critical reassessment. However, if you are a fan, you might simply be enlisted in the co-star Jennifer Lopez as a first-rate supporter.

During an appearance in 2015 on “Late Night With Seth Meyers”, “The Côte Côte Lopez to have appeared in” Anaconda “- which is weird because” Anaconda “by Luis Llosa is an explosion (punctuated by a large final scene for Jon Voight). Lopez shot back,” I was also in “Gigli”.

When Meyers reminded his audience that the film had a negative advertising charge because Affleck and Lopez were released at the time for reasons that still made no sense, Lopez replied: “We had a lot of shit at that time. It was because we were together. It was a whole thing that was happening too.” She then laughed and pointed out: “There are worse films than” Gigli “over there, okay?”

It is not exactly a full -fledged approval of “Gigli”, but Lopez was also in “Jack” by Francis Ford Coppola, so she knows her fiascos. When I revisited the film some time ago (for work), I thought that Fluck and Lopez had a chemistry of dynamite and I was surprised that the famous scene “Gobble, Gobble” caused real laugh. It is a funky film that is everywhere tonic (and not in a good, Bong Joon Ho) and, worse, present Justin Bartha playing a character with a mental handicap. (Seth Rogen heard for the role and said that the band would end her career if she has surfaced.) However, although I think “Gigli” has value and work on occasion, it is, at best, an interesting failure.

I’m going to leave Brest, the Action Comedy Maestro who also gave us “Beverly Hills Cop” and “Midnight Run”, have the last word on “Gigli”. As he said to Todd Gilchrist de Variety in 2023:

“Vast disagreements between the studio and I arrived at the point where the post-production was closed for eight months while we fought. In the end, I ended up with two choices: leaving or being an accomplice of the film. To my eternal regret, I did not stop, so I support the responsibility of a horrible corpse of a film.”

Brest had more to say about his experience on “Gigli”, so I strongly recommend reading this interview After You watch the film. Because a studio film this Total Flabbergaste deserves two hours of your time.
