It takes a lot of money, time, and effort to make a movie, and in Hollywood there are very few scripts that are produced, so the success of a movie depends heavily on it; that's why when a movie fails outright, it's particularly destructive, because it ends up spending hundreds of hours of effort and millions of dollars and never making it back; let's take stock of the "acclaimed" movies of Hollywood's history.
1. Cowboys and Aliens (2011)
Cowboys and aliens
After 14 years of production, stars like Harrison Ford and Daniel Craig couldn't make Cowboys and Aliens a success; the film was released in the same week as The Smurfs, with a total box office loss of between $63 million and $75 million.
2. Supermodel 2 (2016)
Supermodel 2
We don't know who told Ben Stiller 15 years later that we needed a sequel to Supermodel, but it did happen; the film failed completely, with IMDb ratings of 4.7 out of 10.
3. Alexander the Great (2004)
Alexander the Great
Although Angelina Jolie, a year older than him, played Colin Farrell's mother, the cast was a strong cast and Alexander failed completely; the film's estimated loss was about $71 million.
4. True Love (1998)
My dear
The film is based on Tony Morrison's Pulitzer Prize-winning novel and starring Danny Glover, Sandy Newton and Oprah Winfrey; unfortunately the film can't compete with ghostly baby chachi, which was released the same week, and Winfrey recalled: "They said, it was all over, you were defeated by Ghost Baby Chachi; I said, who is Chiagi? What do you mean by finishing it today is only Saturday morning! ”
5. Tiger Guts Pursuit (2018)
Tiger guts chase the killer
"Death Wish," starring #Bruce Willis, cost $30 million and made a negligible $34 million; for the film industry, the net income of $4 million was almost zero; and the timing of the film's release was certainly not very good, as it was released three weeks after the Parkland shooting and a few days after the Massive Shooting in Las Vegas.
6. Binhy: A Christian's Story (2016)
Binhy: A Christian Story
The 2016 remake of the classic film Ben Hu: A Christian's Story ended up losing between $75 million and $121 million; the film, which was heavily criticized by critics and audiences, was considered one of the worst remakes ever made.
7. Happy Hour Murders (2018)
Happy hour murders
Happy Hour Murder was heavily criticized for its overly vulgar humor, even prompting a lawsuit by Sesame Street over the children's friends show; the film's total losses are estimated to be about $12.5 million.
8. Heaven's Gate (1980)
Heaven's Gate
There's definitely a reason Why Heaven's Gate created film history; the Western was directed by Michael Cimino, whose career has been very different since he invested huge budgets in the film, which ultimately led to a $123 million loss to studio United Artists, which eventually went bankrupt after the film's release; in addition, the film was accused of animal cruelty and, worse, critics thought it was" One of the greatest injustices in the history of cinema".
9. Star Wars Tales: Solo (2018)
Star Wars Tales: Solo
Any Star Wars-related film is expected to perform well, but the studio made a miscalculation in Solo: A Star Wars Story; just 5 months after the release of The Last Jedi, "Star Wars fatigue" emerged.
10. The Fall of the Roman Empire (1964)
The Fall of the Roman Empire
Although The Fall of the Roman Empire featured performances by #Hollywood stars such as Sophia Roland, Christopher Plummer, and Alex Guinness, its expensive set costs eventually cost the film a whopping $126 million.
