Such a shame Christopher Walken and Al Pacino were involved in this bust. Everything was just a waste of time, the plot non-existent and acting feels forced. There was no on-screen chemistry from Larry Gigli (Ben Affleck) and Ricki (Jennifer Lopez). Because of its technical incapacity, it deservingly was rewarded by six Razzies: Worst Picture, Worst Actor, Worst Actress, Worst Director, Worst Screenplay, and Worst Screen Couple. You can detect a really bad movie just by watching a few scenes, take Gigli for example. |

Every time I think Hollywood is incapable of going any lower, along comes something like Gigli. There is nothing likable about this film. Not the protagonists, not the supporting characters, nothing. From the smug, grinning face of Ben Affleck (which made me alternately want to vomit and go on a murderous rampage through my hometown) to Jennifer Lopez, who has by now squandered any credit she gained for her admittedly luminous turns in the Cell and Angel Eyes, to the kid with a learning disablity, who I think is played by Justin Bartha in a poor imitation of Rain Man, there is nothing redeemable about this flick. Skip it at all costs. |

"Gigli" by Yojimbo |

And so I finally make it round to the legendary Gigli, a mob so-called "comedy" that sees Ben Affleck as a misogynistic hitman unwillingly paired with intellectual lesbian hitperson Jennifer Lopez to babysit the mentally impaired brother of a federal prosecutor. The reputation of this cinematic trainwreck has completely preceded it and I must admit I approached the film with a combination of dread and morbid curiosity. And what a mess it truly is. Affleck has never been the most charismatic of actors, but in this he is truly DREADFUL! A thoroughly unlikeable cartoon cut-out who goes through the most unbelievably unconvincing cinematic "growing as a person" motions in the company of Lopez, who plays her part like a guest on the Springer show reading pretentious bullshit off cue cards.
