Yeah, that's the power of a brand

Its also the power of a cheap production that was more an excuse for a bunch of rich people to skip out in covid restrictions so they could take a vacation in Hungary. If it's a "fix it in post" production and you never bother with the post production it actually ends up pretty cheap.

It feels their entire budget was spent up front and then when it was obvious it was garbage they stopped spending.
