US Box Office: The Fantastic Four are facing a flop Mission: Impossible – Le Figaro

The reboot of Josh Trank starts in the US on a very poor score, well below the movie with Tom Cruise that keeps the first place.

Certainly, nothing is going to The Fantastic Four . The film, already panned by critics, is a real disappointment at the American box office. 20th Century, who hoped reap at least $ 35 million in revenue this weekend, is vexed. The film has collected only $ 26.2 million for its first three days of operation.

This score is too low to beat the juggernaut Mission: Impossible Rogue Nation . The blockbuster starring Tom Cruise remains in the lead with $ 29.4 million. He has reported 108.4 million revenue in the US in just ten days of operation. A hard hit to beat so.

More importantly, The Fantastic Four realize the worst start of a superhero film produced by 20th Century Fox, twice less than the version of Tim Story in 2005 which had raised $ 56 million for its first weekend of release. Ant-Man, considered a disappointment for Marvel, succeeded him, reaping 57.2 million during its deployment in theaters.

The virtual absence of promotion, skeptical criticism, just as the assassin Tweet – since deleted – Josh Trank, director of the film, which accused the studio of the film will have disfigured finished burying The Fantastic Four . For now, the feature reported 34 million in the rest of the world. And when we know that its budget is 120 million excluding promotion, one can imagine that the film may be deficient or at least, just to break even.

The Gift first embodiment of the actor Joel Edgerton, arrives to pull out of the game by reporting $ 12 million in its first weekend of operation, while its budget was 5 million. A deserved third place for this thriller very well received by American critics.

Gimme a Break and 9.1 million are in fourth. After a disappointing start last week, the film of John Francis Daley barely yield more than its initial budget, estimated at 31 million. Even the very noticed appearance of Chris Hemsworth was not enough to comedy to take off. Next is Ant-Man which collects 7.8 million greenbacks more, for a total of 147.4 million dollars in revenue in the US.
