The movie is a solid box office bomb, leaving executive producers holding the bag on a $15 million budget.
A $15 million debut weekend easily covered its $10 million budget with enough left over to throw a party for the producers to thumb their noses at critics, many of whom ignored the movie altogether while those that gave it a rating panned it to the tune of 0% at Rotten Tomatoes.
Bad puns aside, it marks a modestly successful opening against a $60 million budget.
Tom Hanks’ latest offering Sully landed in theaters this weekend, making a splash with $35 million.
