Fantastic Four failed at launch
Fantastic Four, another attempt by FOX to movie a series of popular comics, failed to become the leader of home distribution at the end of the premiere weekend. Its box office totaled $ 26.2 million - significantly less than the most pessimistic forecasts promised the project. Such a result does not allow the movie to count on a payback in North America, and its only hope remains international distribution. Recall that critics literally trashed the movie, which undoubtedly affected its financial results. Whether FOX will decide to shoot the already announced sequel is still unknown. And the first place went to the action movie "Mission Impossible 5: Outcast Tribe", which earned another $ 29.4 million in North America. The fall in fees in the second weekend was upbeat 49 percent, which gives hope for the movie's endurance at the box office. Its worldwide gross has reached $ 265 million. Another debutant finished in third place - a thriller called "The Gift", which earned $ 12 million. It is also worth noting the success of the animated movie Minions, which has grossed over $ 900 million at the time of this writing. The Topic of Article: Fantastic Four failed at launch. |
