Look, I'm no fan of Julia Roberts (Brad Pitt has done some good stuff) but why is this a story?
It's only in 200 theaters. It's probably only playing in NYC and LA right now. Plenty of movies open very slowly this way. There hasn't even been a big advertising blitz yet.
That said, it might still do crappy at the box office but, again, the fact that it's only on 200 screens says it all.
I agree. This is a non-story, and the only thing people are doing here is giving attention to Roberts which she doesn't deserve.
