The 2000 sci-fi movie Battlefield Earth is widely regarded as one of the worst movies ever made, with some outlets ranking it as the worst sci-fi movie of all time. Despite its poor reception, the film's director remains proud of his work on the project, which starred John Travolta. The movie's reputation as a box office bomb and critical failure has endured, with some calling for it to be reevaluated, while others continue to rank it among the biggest flops of the 2000s.
