Bad Reviews, Weak Response But $1B At Box Office!

Generally, for a film to work at the ticket counters, it is naturally required to have super positive reviews and a pretty impressive word of mouth from the audience.

But in the case of Hollywood biopic, Michael, which is evidently based on the life story of the pop sensation, Michael Jackson, the situation is the exact opposite.

The film opened to weak reviews and failed to generate momentum during its opening weekend. However, it managed to hold steady at the box office in the following weeks and went on to generate substantial revenue.

Subsequently, this film could end up collecting in the vicinity of $962 million till now. This is a pretty extraordinary number for a film like Michael, considering the kind of reviews that it could generate in the opening stages.

With mediocre reviews and not so encouraging word of mouth, this film could still generate substantial revenues at the global box office. This is a lot due to the kind of pop image that Michael Jackson and it rubbed into the box office performance of this film now.

It is going to be a matter of time before this film touches the $1 billion mark at the global box office, and that will be pretty astonishing achievement for the biopic. Also, it will be the first biopic in history to touch the $1 billion at the global box office.
