Comments:
A universally reviled picture, "Battlefield Earth" was a massively expensive bomb. The production company was sued and bankrupted for fraudulently reporting the film's budget.

Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within (2001) Report Abuse
6 points - added 14 years ago by JDBLists - 1 comment
Comments:
An all CGI film, Final Fantasy bankrupted its production company. It wasn't a terrible movie by most accounts, but failing to really impress meant failing to overcome a big production budget.

From Justin to Kelly (2003) Report Abuse
4 points - added 14 years ago by JDBLists - 1 comment
Comments:
This is one failure we can be thankful for. Shot over the space of two weeks as a marketing tie-in for the top contestants in the first season of American Idol, the film's poor reception should (hopefully) deter producers from similar cash-grabs.
