I don't think the problem with HUDSON HAWK was the marketing, I think it was everything else. It's like Bruno's OCEAN'S 12 except that exactly one person is having fun.

The chapter from Richard E Grant's book about this are pretty great, though it's really nothing that you couldn't already have guessed. It was a movie without any sort of real vision behind it that was constantly being changed all the way through shooting. I think it's clear that Willis wanted something that was going to be a little off-beat and I think more personality driven, and I dare say there's actually a fun idea in there somewhere (The heist scenes are actually fun) but the whole thing is just an utter mess that flounders desperately. Also, Andie Macdowell was literally cast at the last minute since the original actress pulled out with a back injury. In fact they were already into principal shooting before she was cast, likely meaning that she was the only actress who was A) Sort of well known and B) Actually available at the time.
