It seems that there was a significant audience that wanted to watch Leonardo DiCaprio suffer in the woods for two-and-a-half hours, but were unwilling to legally pay to do so.
It didn’t exactly have too much of a negative impact on the box office results, as the film still brought in over $500 million internationally by the time it was done with its big screen run.
Every other film that you’ll find on this list would be considered a standard blockbuster by most, but Alejandro González Iñárritu’s The Revenant is the exception from the norm.
