Netflix's expensive film "The Electric State" flops

Netflix's most expensive film, "The Electric State," has struggled since its release. The movie cost $320 million to make, making it the most costly Netflix original to date. Despite starring big names like Chris Pratt and Millie Bobby Brown, it has received overwhelmingly negative reviews. The film was directed by the Russo Brothers, known for their work on "Avengers: Endgame." "The Electric State" has a budget higher than many blockbuster hits, including "Avatar" and "The Avengers." It ranks as the 13th most expensive film ever made. The troubles for "The Electric State" began during pre-production. Universal Pictures initially held the rights but dropped the project two years later. Netflix then took over. Unfortunately, the film failed to attract an audience and received poor ratings, including a dismal 14% score on Rotten Tomatoes. Critics have labeled it a "flop," with one publication calling it a "$320 million piece of junk." The cast includes notable actors such as Ke Huy Quan, Stanley Tucci, and Giancarlo Esposito, along with several voice talents. As of now, "The Electric State" is available for streaming on Netflix.
