Waterworld

Waterworld was a 1995 film that was co-produced by Kevin Costner and directed by Kevin Reynolds. Problems encountered during filming massively escalated its budget, and it held the unfortunate distinction of being the most expensive film ever made (at the time), causing some critics to dub the movie "Fishtar" and "Kevin's Gate" (references to the notorious flops Ishtar and Heaven's Gate). With a budget of $175 million, the film only grossed a meager $88 million at the U.S. box office, and was initially considered to be one of the biggest flops ever made. However, despite this poor start, the film was more successful overseas, and ultimately recouped its budget. In 2005 dollars, (USD), the budget for the movie was $229 million, and grossed $115.3 million at the U.S. box office and $229.9 million at the foreign box office, making a profit of more than $115 million.[1]
