I’m not interested in seeing the movie, nor do I wish it success, but worldwide it is expected (according to Box Office Mojo) to rake in $95M for its first weekend. It will likely make a profit.
“It will likely make a profit.”
Nope. It had a good opening. But this movie needs to do $350 million to see black ink.
Churches goosed U.S. turn-out this weekend (not in New York and Los Angeles, the biggest population centers), but terrible word-of-mouth is going to kill this film by mid-week.
Watch the box office plummet next weekend.
