Gigli

also (somewhat) apologize for the lackluster movies he'd made.....It was the year Affleck appeared in a couple moderately successful thrillers, 'Changing Lanes' and 'The Sum of All Fears....I stand before you today a reformed hater of Ben Affleck .....But anyone who hates Affleck for his political views must also hate Sean Penn, Brad Pitt, Denzel Washington, Tom Hanks and, really, the majority of Hollywood..... ...

I've watched a LOT of films over the years, including a LOT of really bad ones but I can safely say Gigli is the worst one I've ever seen. ... Full Review

the film's interminably "playful" first hour....A woefully miscast Affleck....Bartha favors everyone to an a capella rendition of "Baby Got Back".... ... Full Review

Gigli" was the first movie ever to sweep all six major categories, including worst picture of 2003, at the 24th annual Razzie Awards, held the day before this year's Oscars. The box-office disaster also took worst actor (Affleck), worst actress (Jennifer Lopez), worst screen couple, and worst screenplay and direction (both by Martin Brest). ... Full Review

You see, most of the people that went out of their way to bash Gigli didn't bother to see it, and I really hate when that happens. It's worth knowing how to pronounce Gigli because it will enter the vocabulary as a word meaning 'massive box-office flop; an embarrassment caused by Hollywood's inability to say no to powerful creative types. ...

And for a movie about two supposedly hardcore gangsters, Gigli is also missing action and excitement to juice up a potentially successful crime comedy. The popular pair shares many good scenes together, mostly of them battling it out for sexual supremacy. ... Full Review

This relationship leads to the film's most flagrantly misconceived scene, a frankly brutal suicide attempt.....The actor has surely added to this "muchness," with earnest efforts to promote the film and his relationship with his costar, the dazzling Jennifer Lopez.....For all its obvious inconsistency and clumsiness, Gigli has one peculiar point in its favor, which soon becomes troubling as well.....In any event, much has been already made of his poor performance in the title role in Martin Brest's Gigli .. ...
