Gigli: A Cinematic Dumpster Fire with Peyton Dix and Hunter Harris | 47

The Big Flop

Gigli would go down in history as not only one of the biggest box office bombs… but also the reason Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez broke up the first time. In 2001, Oscar nominated filmmaker Martin Brest penned the gritty tale of a lowlife mobster unable to escape his mundane existence, but by 2003 Gigli had been reverse engineered into a corny, sloppy, rom-com thanks to the Hollywood “it” couple at its center: Bennifer. Gigli was such a cringe-inducing flop, it lost $70 million and earned its place among cinema's biggest disasters.

Co-hosts of Lemme Say This, Peyton Dix and Hunter Harris, join Misha to get LOUD about how bad this movie was.
