The movie, which opened in limited release at 813 theaters across the country on Friday, only managed to pull in $3 million in its first three days, slightly below expectations for the picture.

This despite solid reviews across the board and a heavy press push, with stars Parkers Sawyer and Tika Sumpter and executive producer John Legend doing a number of interviews leading up to the film's release.

A $3 million opening weekend for a movie that cost $1.5 million to make? I’m sure Hollywood would love it if all their movies were that unsuccessful.

Rotten Tomatoes is a leftist outfit; not unlike snopes.
For proof check their ratings for Hillary’s America.
