5. Waterworld (1995)

Dubbed "Kevin's Gate" during production, Waterworld was one of the most expensive films of its time, with a budget of $175 million. Though it grossed $264 million worldwide, the high production costs, including expensive oceanic sets and weather-related delays, left Universal in the red. Kevin Costner's reputation also took a hit as critics targeted his performance. After time passed, the film earned a certain cult status for the ambitious vision of a post-apocalyptic world-while it could still not be ridiculed as some years ago Waterworld became a warning that even such large budgets fail in the game of box offices.
