Every review I’ve seen of this movie says it is a disaster, yet it has grossed approximately $120 million at the box office which translates to a hit. Someone must like it.

It's production costs were 250 million. Marketing usually costs as much. The rule of thumb for movies is they have to make double their production costs to break even.

This has to break 500 million just to not be a loss.

Add to this it won't do well in China or Asia, and it may not break even.

$120 million is a disaster for Disney. They need at least $600 million to break even.
