Biggest Box Office Flops: Which Films Lost The Most Money?

Valerian And The City Of A Thousand Planets

The extremely expensive film saw a devastating opening weekend at the box office, falling in fifth place with only $17 million for a $180 million production budget. Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets is based on the French comic strip Valerian et Laureline which is much more popular in Europe than in the United States. The film was heavily critiqued due to the lead actors sharing little on-screen chemistry, leaving the main attraction to be the visuals on their own.
