Part 4/10:

Compounding the problem are reviews from the Cannes premiere, which have been notably tepid at best. The film has reportedly garnered a 50% Rotten Tomatoes score, with some critics even more dismissive, greatly dampening audience enthusiasm. The impact of poor reviews is likely to be reflected in box office performance, especially considering the film's reliance on positive word of mouth to sustain long-term interest.

The updated tracking projects a domestic opening of 60+ million dollars, a stark contrast to prior forecasts. Industry analyst sites like Box Office Pro had initially predicted an average of around 100 million, but the rapidly declining projections suggest that the film’s audience appeal is not just waning—it may be non-existent.
