John Carter (2012)
John Carter was Disney’s attempt to build a franchise. Unfortunately, it did not work out. They lost an estimated $125 million due to production and marketing costs that went way overboard. Critics remarks about the film best reflect this sad reality. For example, one critic said “While John Carter looks terrific and delivers its share of pulpy thrills, it also suffers from uneven pacing and occasionally incomprehensible plotting and characterization.” In other words, they spent too much on flash and forgot about content.
