Critics hilariously pan 'Jupiter Ascending' by the Wachowskis

The latest movie from Andy and Lana Wachowski — the siblings who made the “Matrix” films — is predicted to be an epic flop.

Jupiter Ascending,” which stars Mila Kunis and Channing Tatum, cost around $180 million to produce and is expected to gross as little as $20 million on its opening weekend. That would mark the third bomb in a row for the Wachowskis, after "Speed Racer" and "Cloud Atlas."

"Jupiter Ascending" currently has a dismal 23% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. We thought we’d give you a little taste of scenes from the film, and the distaste that critics have for it.
