First Man has officially flopped, and not just here at home, but all over the world. After three full weeks in distribution, the critical darling will barely creep over $40 million domestic and, according to Deadline, has already fallen out of the top ten.
As of Thursday, and after 20 full days in release, First Man had grossed only $39 million domestic. Outside North America, the story about Neil Armstrong, the first man to walk on the moon, is doing even worse, with just $37 million.
With a $60 million production budget and somewhere between $30 and $50 million spent on publicity (a reasonable guess), after exhibitors take their 50 percent (an industry accepted formula), this Ryan Gosling film would have to gross something close to $200 million just to break even.

Goslingl is a terrible actor.
But it’s so inclusive!
I watched the movie and it was so boring I fell asleep. I would wake up when my wife bumped me when she heard my snoring. It got so bad that a person next to us threatened to report me to the theater staff. I could imagine the police being called to escort me out of the theater. All because the movie caused me to fall asleep.
LMAO
Neil Armstrong:
One small step for man, One giant lezz..zzz..zzzzzz
Get woke, go broke.
Apollo 13 rocks. I can’t watch it enough times.
The worst part is that it will be a generation before someone takes a shot at telling this story again. What a missed opportunity.
The movie would have been more interesting if Armstrong had seen a giant led on the moon.
Giant lez
Al Gore, Michael Moore and the whole lot of the Hollywood crazies should all pitch in $500,000 each to support a fellow liberal commie movie producer, especially as it fits in their commie world views.

That is a fantastic movie.
Yet 435 reviews on rotten tomatoes compared with 2 for Gosnell!!!!!
My cousin and her husband saw it and liked it. But she hates Trump. Now that I know there is no flag scene, forget it.
Hated him in La La Land
Remember the weekend Armstrong walked on the moon was same weekend as Chappaquiddick. Teddy didn’t get all the publicity be deserved.
“Goslingl is a terrible actor.”
Agreed, I’m astounded by how incredibly overrated he is. Every movie I’ve seen him in is a snooze-fest, in large part due to his lack of ability
Hooray for Hollywood /SARCASM
I really enjoyed the movie.
