Blockbuster or bust?
Though the movie earned a $242 million worldwide box-office gross, after overhead, it lost roughly $90 million after all expenses, including the $103.3 million it cost to make the movie, were taken into account over the next four years as of 2003.[1] However, these numbers are misleading because they do not account for DVD sales.
