Gigli

In case anyone in the conscious universe wasn’t aware of it yet, this universal punching bag pointed out that Jennifer Lopez is attractive. Oh sure, there’s a plot – something about two mob gofers (Lopez and Ben Affleck) who butt heads while pairing up on a kidnapping – but director Martin Brest stages most scenes as magazine photo shoots, while Affleck flirts
more than he acts. It all adds up to a big-screen People cover story.
