10 Biggest Box Office Bombs Of 2015 (So Far)
10. Aloha
Estimated Losses: $20m
The movie long-referred to as the catchy-sounding 'Untitled Cameron Crowe Hawaii Project' marked yet another disappointing effort from the undeniably talented writer/director. When it was finally released, Aloha turned out to be just as generic as its title, and was greeted with both critical and commercial apathy.
Despite boasting a typically star-studded cast as is the norm from a Cameron Crowe picture, Aloha wastes its A-list talent in an overwritten and unfocused narrative, with the final product turning out to be a romantic-comic-drama that fails to do any of the three genres much justice.
The movie limped into the domestic box office charts in sixth position with a weak $9.7m debut, and dropped out of the top ten completely after just two weeks. Almost a month after its release, Aloha has earned just $23m worldwide against a $37m production budget, and ranks as the second lowest-grossing movie of Cameron Crowe's career above Say Anything, which was released 26 years ago when movie tickets weren't quite so expensive.
