This will in all likelihood be the pillowcase withDrive - Away Dolls , the recent route - stumble drollery point by Ethan Coen and write by him and Tricia Cooke . While it flopped at the box office because of its unique and sometimes off - putt stylization , its campy elements will likely be smiled upon in the coming years .

Similarly , Downsizingfound a much orotund consultation on Netflix , even if critics have n’t changed their minds about it .

This is the case forRumor Has ItandMother ’s twenty-four hour period , two poorly conceived amatory comedies that give Aniston nothing to work with and manage to flatten out her appeal .

The 13th Warrioris useable for rip on Prime Video .

His string of films that did n’t make enough in theaters in the former 1990s and former 2000s was broken up by his winner , which made their failure all the more surprising . In offerings likeAssassins​​​​​​ , he star alongside Sylvester Stallone , and inOriginal Sinhe was joined by Angelina Jolie . Big wiz such as these should have had practiced chance at the box office , but the motion picture did n’t live up to their headliner - stud stamp .
