10 Lowest Grossing Superhero Films

10. Elektra

Worldwide Gross: $56,681,566

Elektra may not be in the Batman & Robin league of awfulness, but it’s still one of the most dispiriting superhero movies ever made, possessing zero charm, fun or personality. When even Terence Stamp can’t enliven the proceedings, you know you’re watching a turkey.

Opportunist, needless and very, very dull, Elektra proves that you can make a movie about a sexy action heroine with a blind martial arts master and turn it into the proverbial dog’s breakfast, something it accomplishes by ladling on the pop psychology. Turns out Elektra had a tough childhood, and that’s why she dresses like a Victoria’s Secret model and carries knives. Who knew?

Released in 2005, the movie was unloved by critics and fans alike. As long as the Daredevil TV series remains in the memory, don’t expect Elektra’s movie to undergo a re-evaluation.
