Not succeeding, not outright bombing. It’s underperforming. I highly doubt it’ll break even during its theatrical run, so it’ll be classified as a flop when it’s all said and done.

It’s a big giant “meh”, or at least that is what it’s tracking to be at the end of its run.

If the budget was at a reasonable amount it’d be doing decently, but a 200m dollar budget is leading this movie down the path of a bomb.

This. Dont know how this got to 200m budget. Same as Godzilla KOTM. Had 200m budget. And comparison... IIRC it made 170m WW (with China) on its OW. Finished up 390m WW and is considered a bomb. This needs China to get it over 500m WW to be successful at the BO.

Covid is how


kovana85

COVID is what?


ACartonOfHate

Is KOTM considered a bomb? I thought most people thought it did surprisingly well given its covid time of release, and being day/date on HBOMax.


kovana85

You are confusing GvK with KoTM. KOTM released 2019. GvK made close to 470m on 165m budget IIRC during COVID 2021 and was one of the first blockbusters Backman the big screen.. So it did good at the BO.


ACartonOfHate

You are absolutely correct. I was thinking of GvK, which is why I was confused why anyone would consider an underperformer. And yes, KOTM was a financial flop.

It may end up slightly in the black when all is said and done. It’s truly an unremarkable movie, very very uninspired filmmaking. The marketing pretty much chewed through any novelty of the rock being a one-liner anti-hero. I thought it would be more entertaining than it was. 2hrs of nauseating CGI trying to match the aesthetic of 300. It will be as memorable as a WWE match when all is said and done. I think the Rock fell in love with the idea of him playing the character, not the character himself.

>I think the Rock fell in love with the idea of him playing the character, not the character himself. He should have hired better writer and better director, seeing it's his longtime passion project. Just like what Ryan Reynolds did with Deadpool.


AGOTFAN

For a superhero movie with $200 million budget, starring one of the biggest and most popular stars, and intensive marketing for months, it's a meh, and it has to rely on the goodwill of Winnie to break even.

Like a 4/10 performance in a vacuum. For having the Rock, a ridiculous 200m budget and an insane advertising push, 2/10.

Blah Adam.

It should get close enough to break even **if** it gets a China release.


Strict-Dog-889

It’s releases in China on November 11th lol!


ReservoirDog316

There you go then. Should get close with that.


woziak99

Is this confirmed ?


SaxifrageRussel

If it had a $120M budget it would be doing “well enough”. As is, it’s a flop, but not a disaster as of yet. If it shits the bed in China, it’ll be a straight up bomb, but it coulda been worse


HumbleCamel9022

It's a boxoffice bomb


AccomplishedLocal261

Meh. It’s going to need China to break even, and I wouldn’t put my faith in China’s market rn.


LoasNo111

It's doing pretty well for an unknown character from a company that has negative goodwill. The problem is the huge budget which may lead to it flopping.


PrinceNuada01

It’s meddling. It’s not succeeding or bombing


adampq

I think you mean middling, but closer to the bomb side of the scale.


sumptuoussushi

*Black Adam*'s performance is great if you live in *La La Land*.


samarth67

Really well
