Mostly just "crap, sh*t," and "lackustre," since a film bombing in cinemas isn't necessarily indicative of it being a bad film. I don't hear anyone say that over here.
'Went bust' is used but for businesses - a film is a product rather than a business so it feels a bit weird to say it went bust. If i was describing something not meeting box office targets I'd say 'it didn't break even' or 'it barely broke even' or 'made less profit than expected' (3 levels of poor performance there)
Dud is specifically for a failed manufactured product like a bomb or another weapon.
'It was a miss' is definitely not used, i thought millenials coined that phrase
