Who doesn’t love a blockbuster movie? But a Blockbuster movie is not easily made. It requires a lot of financial and intellectual efforts and it’s no wonder why the most successful movies ever made are those that gulped down a lot of cash for production.

Here is a list of the top 10 most expensive movies ever made. Most of the budgets have been adjusted for inflation.

10. The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian


Budget: $225 million

Box Office: $419.7 million

Rating: 6.6/10 The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian takes Number 10 on our countdown to the 10 most expensive movies ever made.

Synopsis: The Pevensie siblings return to Narnia, where they are enlisted to once again help ward off an evil king and restore the rightful heir to the land's throne, Prince Caspian (IMDB).

9. The Dark Knight Rises

With a budget of $230 million The Dark Knight Rises made a HUGE WHOPPING $1.084 billion in box office sales. I'm actually not surprised by how much money this film made considering the first two together made $375.205 billion.


8. Avatar

With a budget of $237 million Avatar brought in a whopping $2,787,965,087. In all honesty this movie wasn't so bad. It's not my favorite, the only time I'll watch it is when I'm extremely bored and have literally nothing to do.


7. Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince



Budget: $250 million

Office Box: $934,416,487

Rating: 7.5/10 Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince takes 7th place on our countdown to the 10 most expensive movies ever made.

Me being a huge Harry Potter fanatic it doesn't surprise me on how well this film did. A BIG FAT WHOPPING $934,416,487.

6. The hobbit; The Battle of Five Armies

Rating: 7.7/10 The Hobbit: The battle of the five armies takes 6th place on our countdown to the 10 most expensive movies ever made.

I've never seen any of these movies but I'll tell you this, they look very interesting. I can tell people are in love with this trilogy because it made $806.2 million at the box office.

5. Spider-man 3



Budge[/b]t: $258 million

I'm a HUGE Disney fan and this movie was one of my favorite films.

3. John Carter

Synopsis: Transported to Barsoom, a Civil War vet discovers a barren planet seemingly inhabited by 12-foot tall barbarians. Finding himself prisoner of these creatures, he escapes, only to encounter Woola and a princess in desperate need of a savior (IMDB).

Never seen it and won't ever see it. This movie doesn't even interest me.


2. Pirates of the Caribbean: At world's End 2007



Budget: $300 million

Box Office: $963.4 million

Rating: 7.1/10 Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End takes 2nd place on our countdown to the 10 most expensive movies ever made.

Synopsis: Captain Barbossa, Will Turner and Elizabeth Swann must sail off the edge of the map, navigate treachery and betrayal, and make their final alliances for one last decisive battle (IMDB).

Two reasons why I actually watched the Pirates of the Caribbean trilogy: 1. Johnny Depp was in it, and 2. It was made by DISNEY one of my favorite movie studios.

1. Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides

Box Office: $1.046 billion

Rating: 6.7/10 Pirates of the Caribbean: On stranger Tides takes 1st place on our countdown to the 10 most expensive movies ever made.

Like I said in post number two, I only had two reasons why I watched the Pirates of the Caribbean trilogy.
