Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Gigli (pronounced "Jee-lee") is a 2003 romantic comedy film written and directed by Martin Brest, and starring Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck. It's notable for its swift change in direction: originally written strictly as a Black Comedy, it was rewritten to cash in on the Affleck/Lopez romance (then a major media craze) at the behest of executives.Low-level Los Angeles mob enforcer Larry Gigli (played by Affleck) is commanded to kidnap Brian (Justin Bartha in his film debut), the mentally impaired, Baywatch-obsessed brother of a district attorney trying to bring down a mob lord and hold him hostage. Gigli's boss doesn't think he'll be able to handle the kid alone, though, so he has assassin Ricki (Lopez) join him. Gigli is attracted to Ricki, but she turns out to be a lesbian and, as such, rebuffs him.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Much of the remaining film time comprises the three hanging around Gigli's apartment, receiving threatening phone calls and break-ins from Gigli's boss and the police, and occasionally venturing to locales such as an outdoor diner and hospital, with strong emphasis placed on the romance between Ricki and Gigli and some rather strange lines. Oh, and Christopher Walken being Christopher Walken.Not to be confused with Gigi. | |

Never Trust a Trailer | |
Gigli / int_19ebe383 | comment |
Never Trust a Trailer: The film's trailer makes it look more fun and silly than it is despite its serious mobster gang business material. It also gives first-time viewers the wrong impression that Jennifer Lopez's character is supposed to be the titular lead Gigli. See Misplaced-Names Poster. | |

No Bisexuals: Ricki is a 'lesbian' who has been with men (and does not refer to it as unpleasant, or a mistake) and falls for a heterosexual man working in the same field. When Ricki's ex Robin shows up looking for her and finds her with Larry, she thinks that Ricki has 'turned' straight and accuses her of switching orientation. As such, Gigli is not the first movie in which Ben Affleck plays a man who wins over a 'lesbian' colleague. | |

Finger in the Mail: Louis orders Larry and Ricki to send the DA one of Brian's thumbs. However, they find themselves unable to go through with it, so they break into a hospital morgue, cut a thumb off a random corpse, and send that to the DA, instead. Their plan, of course, backfires when the authorities receiving the digit are able to identify the thumbprint and confirm it's not Brian's, which infuriates Mr. Starkman. | |

Gigli / int_abad35b4 | comment |
Soundtrack Dissonance: A lengthy reflection on human sexuality by Ricki in which she compares the penis to a sea slug or a really long toe and the vagina to a human mouth is accompanied by a soft, mellow, romantic guitar ballad. There's also Ricki giving a speech about killing Brian, with lighthearted folk guitar playing in the background. As Larry drives Ricki and Brian by a beach, the latter says, "I think that's where the sex is," and a somber chord plays behind him. | |

Did Not Think This Through: As Starkman points out, all the crew accomplished by kidnapping Brian was bring even more federal prosecutors down on his head when he probably could have just beaten the charges on his own. | |

Gigli / int_d31da2e3 | comment |
If It's You, It's Okay: This might be the case with Larry and Ricki. At first, Larry developed a crush on Ricki, only to be disappointed when he finds out she's a lesbian. Then Ricki decides to give Larry a chance anyway after his Anguished Declaration of Love and they sleep together. Despite Larry being a man and Ricki being a lesbian, they still enter into a "special" relationship. | |

Bulletproof Human Shield | |
Gigli / int_d7e68c39 | comment |
Bulletproof Human Shield: Zigzagged and most likely completely unintentional. Starkman shoots Louis clean through the head, as indicated by the blood splatter emitted from an exit wound, but the high-velocity bullet that achieved this somehow doesn't shatter the giant fishtank immediately behind Louis and doesn't make a complete mess of Starkman's mansion. | |
