Aqui surpassed a box office milestone
There’s still a long way to go
Here reached a box office milestone. The film, which uses a static camera to explore a non-linear story about centuries of drama that takes place on a single plot of land and the house built on it, is a reunion between Forest Gump director Robert Zemeckis, screenwriter Eric Roth and co-stars Robin Wright and Tom Hanks. THE Here the cast also includes Paul Bettany, Kelly Reilly and Michelle Dockery. During the opening weekend, the film debuted in 5th place at the national box office with just US$4.8 million.
It’s still significantly in the red…
Put Collider, Here has already grossed $10.2 million worldwide, from a domestic gross of $9.8 million and $368,000 from its international release. This finally surpassed the $10 million mark after almost two full weeks in cinemas. However, the film’s production budget, estimated at between $45 and $50 million, means it is still significantly in the red, nor does it show any signs of improving at the end of its theatrical run.
What does this mean here
It will probably be a box office bomb
THE Forest Gump reunion film’s box office performance, which may have been hampered by Here reviews that it got a dismal 35% score on Rotten Tomatoes probably mean it will never make a profit in theaters. Typically, films need to earn two and a half times their budget, probably putting its break-even point at somewhere around US$115 million. It seems impossible to achieve this goal, especially with the imminent releases of major blockbusters, including Red, Evil, Gladiator IIand Moana 2 filling the theaters.
