22 Movies That Sucked Despite the Buckets of Money Poured Into Them

‘‘Food Fight’ is punishingly bad’

If you’ve ever been to a film festival, you know there’s a number of ways a low-budget film can spiral down the toilet. Actors who desperately need resume credits for a reason, set pieces that still have IKEA stickers on them, lighting like a Walmart parking lot because it’s literally been filmed in a Walmart parking lot — it’s hard to lose yourself in a movie like that.

You can’t expect much better from a beginner with a dream, though. You can, and should, from a major studio that’s thrown hundreds of millions of dollars behind the best talent and technology money can buy. When a movie flatlines despite every available resource, that’s when you know everyone involved must have misplaced their fucks.
