Every Ben Affleck Movie Ranked From Worst To Best

55. Gigli (2003)

As long as Ben Affleck shall live, he can rest easy that he'll never be under as much public scrutiny as he was when he co-starred with real-life lover Jennifer Lopez in 2003's Razzie-winning dud Gigli.

Somehow costing an insane $75 million and directed by the once-brilliant Martin Brest (Scent of a Woman), Gigli is an embarrassingly terrible romantic "comedy" starring Affleck as a low-level mobster who falls in love with the woman (Lopez) sent to ensure he carries out his latest job.

The weirdest thing about Gigli isn't that it's totally unfunny, but that Affleck and Lopez strangely have little palpable on-screen romantic chemistry. The atrocious dialogue doesn't help, but even so, there are no sparks to be found.

Gigli went on to win six Razzies, including Worst Picture, Worst Director, Worst Actor for Affleck, Worst Actress for Lopez, and Worst Screen Couple for the pair.

It was also such a catastrophic box office bomb that it effectively ended director Brest's career, as he hasn't made a single film in the near-20 years since.
