Gigli Reviews
Jennifer Lopez lights up the screen every time she's on it. Unfortunately, that's also to the movie's detriment, because from her first scene, she becomes the most interesting thing happening in any given moment.

There truly is no reason to see this film.
| Original Score: 0/4.0 | Sep 8, 2020
The film isn't just bad, it's jaw-droppingly bad.
| Original Score: F | Nov 16, 2019
The serious problem with Gigli is the script.

It's like the first draft of a one-set play that Neil Simon wisely abandoned, and which was then handed to Quentin Tarantino to spice up.

Gigli won't be the worst movie to come out of Hollywood all year, but it's sure to be one of the most forgettable.
| Jun 22, 2015
It's every bit as atrocious as you may have heard. Nay, worse.
| Jun 22, 2015
To qualify as a historic failure, a film needs a measure of pretension and all Gigli ever wanted to be was a romantic comedy. What it is is a dreadful romantic comedy.
| Original Score: D | Jun 22, 2015
Mere words fail to express the awfulness of Martin Brest's Gigli.

Now we can see why the Jennifer Lopez-Ben Affleck marriage was called off. It was on grounds of unreasonable cruelty to audiences.
| Jun 22, 2015
Overlong, plodding, tone-deaf, unfunny and preposterous.
| Jun 22, 2015
The two stars may be in love in real life, but they've managed to keep that chemistry well-hidden on screen.

It comes to something when a movie is only worth watching to validate just how dreadful it is.
| Original Score: 1/5 | Jun 17, 2014
This misguided romantic comedy goes wrong so often and in such profoundly lunkheaded ways that to say it stinks would be bordering on polite understatement.
Full Review | Jun 17, 2014
After the schadenfreudian thrill of watching beautiful people humiliate themselves wears off, it has the same annihilating effect on your will to live.
| Jun 17, 2014
Nothing in Gigli is sustained, from pace to plot points to character functions. It appears to have been chopped up and put back together again more than once.

Here is a film that exists on another plane. It is so insane, so misguided, so Dadaesque, so Kafkaesque, you'll think I'm exaggerating. I'm not.
| Original Score: 1/4 | Jun 5, 2013
[A] hopelessly scatterbrained romantic comedy.
| Jun 5, 2013
Not only is it a total botch, it's also an unrelentingly boring botch, meaning it doesn't even fit into the "so bad it's hilarious" category alongside Showgirls and Battlefield Earth.
| Original Score: 1/5 | Jun 5, 2013
More stupefying follies may come, but it's impossible to imagine how they'll beat this one for staggering idiocy, fatuousness or pretension.
