Saw the movie on Friday evening. Theater had over 150 people attending, and we had a standing ovation, with a lot of applause afterwards. Loved the movie.

In terms of BOX OFFICE, Expelled opened in the highest number of theaters of any Documentary - Political. See here :

http://boxofficemojo.com/genres/chart/?id=politicaldoc.htm

At this point in time, 2 days after opening, it already ranked 26th among all documentaries. If life time gross is 10 times opening, it could well to go to number 3 among all documentaries, behind Fahrenheit 9/11 and March of the Penguins.

Also, I find it interesting to compare the ratings some sites give this movie.

Rotten Tomatoes’ critics rank it at 9%

At Box Office Mojo, 66.4% of viewers give it A’s against 28.7% who gave it F’s

It seems that Expelled’s viewers are even more polarized than Fahrenheit 9/11.

As a point of comparison,

66.4% of viewers have given Expelled an A so far compared to 46.5% to Fahrenheit 9/11.
