Gigli (/ˈʒiːli/ ZHEE-lee)[4] is a 2003 American romantic crime comedy film written, co-produced and directed by Martin Brest and starring Ben Affleck, Jennifer Lopez, Justin Bartha, Al Pacino, Christopher Walken, and Lainie Kazan.
Despite popular media giving attention and interest to the film during production (primarily because stars Affleck and Lopez were romantically involved at the time), Gigli was heavily panned, and, in the years since release, it has been considered one of the worst films of all time. It was also one of the most expensive box-office bombs in history, grossing $7.2 million against a $75.6 million budget. To date, it is the most recent film Brest directed.
