10 Infamous Movie Box Office Bombs That Cost Obscene Money

10. Gemini Man

By modern standards, $138m isn't a huge amount of money to be spent on a Hollywood blockbuster that seeks to utilize cutting-edge techniques, but upon watching Gemini Man you get the distinct impression that funneling all of those funds towards the effects department left them more than a little short in other areas, most notably the script.

Ang Lee decided to painstakingly recreate a Fresh Prince era Will Smith using the latest in de-aging technology, but 'Junior' remained firmly stuck in the uncanny valley whenever he was required to move his blank and expressionless face. Surely the quickest and cheapest way to portray a young Will Smith would be to have him simply shave his goatee off given that he hardly seems to have aged since the mid-90s.

The 120 fps frame-rate was another unnecessary expense, and something that people just don't seem interested in, and instead of focusing on making the story as good as it could possibly be it appeared as though Lee was more focused on his fancy new toys, with Gemini Man greeted by a shrug as it went on to become one of the biggest box office bombs of last year.
