Critic score: 33/100 - User score: 8.8/10 - This was a Marvel movie before the Marvel Cinematic Universe was even created. This was back in the time of the wild west of comic book movies. Critics weren't getting paid off by Marvel yet. Marvel didn't have that Disney money to throw around. Now every single Marvel moviel gets great reviews. Interesting... This movie was great, even with John Travolta's hammy acting. The critics really didn't know what they were talking about, but also this was a time when critics didn't know how to react to comic book and video game movies.
What critics said: "Fires blanks. Thoroughly routine, pic plays like a paint-by-numbers pilot for bygone basic-cable teleseries." This critic probably likes it. They just wanted an excuse to sound clever by saying "fires blanks."
Not all celebrities have fame and fortune, some are just famous – and in a ton of debt. They came from rags to riches, then went back to rags. Whether they’ve filed bankruptcy, ended up in court, or just can’t stop spending, celebrities mismanage their money just like everyone else. They just hide it well.
50 Cent coined the term “wanksta,” then “partied like it was his birthday” until he filed Chapter 11 bankruptcy in 2015.

Following a 45-year-long career in Hollywood, acting in more than 70 films, actor Gary Busey found himself in more debt than he was worth.
