'The Love Guru' - Mike Myers - While Mike Myers will forever be highly regarded in the world of comedy, 'The Love Guru' is a dark spot on his otherwise gleaming résumé. The worst part is, Myers starred, produced, and directed it.

'Gigli' - Ben Affleck - This awkward rom-com gone wrong is noted as one of Affleck's worst. Affleck and co-star Jennifer Lopez had been dating during the year leading up to its release, but not even their celebrity buzz could save 'Gigli' from a slew of bad reviews.

'Swept Away' - Madonna - While no one can say anything negative about Madonna's musical career in the '80s and '90s, her films are a different story. Her then-husband Guy Richie wrote and directed 'Swept Away,' which was dubbed one of the worst films of the year.

'Waterworld' - Kevin Costner - All of the franchise material in the world couldn't save 'Waterworld.'

'Iron Man' - Terrence Howard - Though 'Iron Man' is a great film, it wasn't for Howard. When audiences were only captivated by Tony Stark, Captain Rhodes lost that massive Marvel paycheck.

'Snow Dogs' - Cuba Gooding Jr. - The reviews for 'Snow Dogs' were colder than the filming location. As one of his first films after his Oscar win, Cuba Gooding Jr. should have played out the success of 'Jerrry Maguire' just a little longer.

'Boat Trip' - Cuba Gooding, Jr. -

Another disaster for Cuba Gooding, Jr., this film about a straight man on a gay singles cruise sank in ratings.
