10 Biggest Box Office Flops Of All Time
5. The Adventures Of Pluto Nash (2002)
Eddie Murphy's futuristic action-comedy about a lunar nightclub owner was the worst performing of his entire career—which is saying something as this is the same person who brought us Norbit. The script for the film was actually written in the mid-1980s, and then rewritten and rewritten until it finally made it to production in 2000.
Once the movie finally finished filming, it sat on the studio shelf for two years before it was released—not a huge confidence booster to be sure.
With a budget of $100 million plus a $20 million marketing budget, this movie opened to a mere $4 million gross domestically. The reviews were not favorable, and though foreign sales usually help boost even the biggest of bombs, Pluto Nash's worldwide gross rose up only to about $7 million.
Total loss: $113 million
