Gigli
Gigli ( ZHEE-lee) is a 2003 American romantic comedy crime film written, co-produced, and directed by Martin Brest, and starring Ben Affleck, Jennifer Lopez, Justin Bartha, Al Pacino, Christopher Walken, and Lainie Kazan.
Brest and producers disagreed about the film, leading to a protracted shutdown after filming, as well as edits that Brest did not approve. Affleck and Lopez also became romantically involved during production, leading to major publicity. However, upon the film's release by Sony Pictures Releasing on August 1, 2003, Gigli was universally panned, and in subsequent years, it has been considered one of the worst films of all time. It is also one of the most expensive box-office bombs in history, grossing $7.2 million against a $75.6 million budget. It is the last film that Brest ever directed, and his only unprofitable film as a director.
