It's at 128 mio. $ worldwide - might make 180 mio$, so a net loss of 150 - 200 mio. more or less.
It is amazing how strong the brand is - with the right movie it might have been a hit.
I watched it during a train ride - some of it at fast forward.
The direction and the action is more or less fine, but the story and the characters and the feminist memes are just idiotic.
Also it is not funny at all!
I did not laugh once.
The Chris Hemsworth character did not appear to be truly dumb. He is not an actor on Brad Pitt's level or Paul Feig has no idea how a truly dumb person talks or acts. Brad Pitt played some dumb characters and it was believable.
Also this - 3 female scientists crap is moronic to the utmost. They never truly sound credible. The 'zany' lesbian character did only antics the entire movie and one awkward 'emotional' sentence which was so badly done, that it's disgusting.
Of course the movie is utterly anti-male. Most men are either assholes, dumb or gay. The main villain is a personified Omega MRA-meme who is described as 'creepy' every step of the way.
They cut the scene where he takes over the entire New York police and national guard and lets them perform a dance routine. My guess is that the viewers did not like that to be done with New York's finest.
It is truly amazing that the movie grossed 130 mio. $ so far - a fantasy for older women to feel better about themselves - all for the price tag of 250 mio. $.
Studio execs like Amy Pascal should be fired and never heard from again in Hollywood for this crap. They even refer to misogynist online comments right in the movie. It seems that they did recuts of the scenes since some of the trailer scenes do not appear and they probably changed the black one's demeanor a bit. It did not save anything of course - it's all boring bullshit. The movie is rather bland and boring than truly super-bad. And of course the feminist indoctrination is on level 100.
But it seems that some folk don't even notice as was seen with the Youtube couple
before - they somehow could not find the 'feminism' in the movie. Heh - feminism works by destroying men, by making all men appear bad, by showing that women are all better than men, then it works by making the women behave like men, which is another feminist meme etc.
Even semi-aware folk are getting a decent amount of propaganda without realizing that it is there. This is indeed bad - it shows you how far the population is gone mentally. The globalist elite has as good as won.
