The movie DESERVED to have made $100 million domestically opening weekend!
As someone who saw this and hasn’t seen any other Mission Impossible movie, I confidently say it is a fantastic movie. You don’t feel like you’re missing anything if you haven’t seen another past movie, which is a bonus in my opinion. So, don’t feel intimidated to see it.
Yeah the last one I saw was Ghost Protocol but I didn’t feel like I was missing anything at all
You miss background with the team, but you’re correct a newcomer can follow it easy.
I don't think its disappointing at all highest 5 day opening and a record globel opening. Industry projections have been off all year it seems.
It open with less than Indiana Jones in the usa 🤷
Domestic box office is more important than international and to only gross 80mill in 5 days is dissapointing
@@emanuelsosa8 Indys 5 day came out over the 4th of July holiday. Mission Impossible will do much better because the audiences seem to like it more
@@bryanpowell2388 80mill for the Mission Impossible series is great. This movie is definitely going to have legs domestically
@@adammartinez3221bro studios only receive 20 - 40% of the international box office
It just says a lot about how audiences are not interested in movie theaters like they used to be. Average movies are bombing hard, and good movies are not making the type of money they used to. When an outstanding movie like Dead Reckoning can't even meet the box office prediction numbers that says a lot.
Stop lying the movie just suck Mario made a billion
I feel like the hype for Barbie and Oppenheimer are insane and the discussion around a double feature of those films is dominating the conversation. People are less aware Mission Impossible is out and saving for the 20th/21st
Whenever a Mission: Impossible movie comes out, the hype is so big that it feels like it's gonna break a billion easy, yet, it never does.
It's a very simple john People are struggling. With all the interest rate hikes. So there very picky in where they spend their money
Inflation and economy. I want to go see it but things have to be cut
@@Ricky48888 Because I have bills and everything cost a shit ton now? We arent all born with a silver spoon in our mouth
Maybe MI7 will have a strong word of moth and will continue to make a lot money over a longer time... like Top Gun. I liked it very much!
This movie is a success. It opened on a Wednesday and this summer/year is stacked so people are choosing carefully what to save and spend their money on. This is a non-story.
Most movies this summer underperformed or bombed. Theres a connection here. Since Covid, people rather wait at home and watch most movies cheaper.
TLDR: People have less spending money and they wait until it's "free" on streaming.
I think it's the economy. For people that don't have a membership program to reduce costs, it's just too expensive to go to the movies, pay bills (which have gone up), and buy groceries (which have gone up).
We're all being charged prices everywhere that we can barely afford so the movies are to first expense to go. Then you add on that most people I know are just waiting to catch it "for free" on streaming.
Exactly. I've seen two movies all year. Not because I don't want to go. Because I could afford to go to two movies this year.
But I also got to say, we all have big flat screen TV's, 4k quality video and surround sound. Often times our own living room is a much better viewing experience than the theater, cost aside.
@@MasterDoctorBenji Jesus, how expensive are tickets in your country? In mine a normal ticket costs like a regular lunch.
@@MatiZ815 16ish per person. Which for something I can get at home for virtually nothing is now an expensive treat and not a weekend habit.
@@MasterDoctorBenji Dollars? That is actually pretty expensive. If I count right, a ticket here costs about 6$ although earnings are lower too.
The box office number the past couple years post pandemic has been pretty confusing.
Well, most of the country is in one of the worst heatwaves ever, with no relief in sight, and it’s not like we’re getting any financial relief either, and most theater chains just raised prices again! No doubt in time for summer. Hell, I wait for discount Tuesday to see new releases now 😢
I think the problem is that this movie doesn’t have as much of a mass appeal as Top Gun: Maverick, so I never expected it to make near as much. Plus, this has never been a billion-dollar earning franchise, so I’m not really sure why the studio was expecting anything else.
I will say though, this is one of the best movies I’ve ever seen.
This series has staying power vs opening power. It'll be fine, can't wait to watch again.
The box office for weekend is skewed because some places had early showings tuesday and opened on Wednesday
I saw it last Monday at an early screening.
This movie is absolutely phenomenal, I’ll be seeing it in theatres many more times before it leaves! I even had a friend thank for me for advising to go (even though they hadn’t seen any of the MI movies), they absolutely loved it and now want to watch the rest of them! Incredible that a franchise is this good 7 movies in.
Something else to note here is that the opening day was on a Wednesday, so the night before showings were on Tuesday and rolled into the Wednesday numbers. Those night before numbers were 7M, so if it had opened on a Friday, that 7M added to the weekend would have been 63M which would have made it bigger than Fallout.
I think at the end of the day, A lot of us just aren't interest in going to the movies anymore. I would be interested in knowing if VOD purchases have gone up since Covid as well. For me, 99% of all my movies I watch at home now, with the exception of movies that I really don't want to wait to see. That tends to be maybe 1 to 2 movies a year
I am right there with you. This movie is a BLAST and the best of the franchise and one of the best action movies ever made and have no idea why people are not going out to see it. It is a thrilling entertaining blockbuster. If people in North America don't want to see it, hopefully the rest of the world helps their box office numbers. If this movie does not have legs than I must admit that I have doubts about audiences' ability to support great movies.
You're seeing the wider economy at work. A movie is a luxury item now. People are too saddled with housing, transportation, and food costs. We need side hustles to survive, so who has time for a movie?
$20 max for a ticket bro, cmon now 😂
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 facts
@@twistingfate99 depends on location. I paid $40 for my daughter and I to see ATSV and it wasn’t 3d
Should’ve released it a month earlier. Too close to Oppenheimer and Barbie.
Thought fallout was better personally
Way better
I loved Dead Reckoning, but I have to agree. Fallout was overall better.
Dead reckoning felt like Fast X
At least it isn’t going to suffer badly as Indiana Jones 5
I saw Dead Reckoning part 1 in Imax this past saturday, and I hope to see Part 2 at the same imax next year. Hopefully a preview of part two will be available on the 4k blu-ray release ( which I've already pre-ordered) later this year.
Christopher McCrory has set in the past his movies don't tend to appeal to the below 35-year-old audience. The older you get the less motivated people are to attend a day and date opening weekend which is also why his movies tend to have strong box office legs.
I saw it over the weekend and as a big fan of these films? I thought it was just…”ok”. I think “Fallout” is a much better film…but I think this one will grow on me with more viewings.
I hate to be the “Debbie downer” fan, but it’s going to be REALLY tough with both “Barbie” and “Oppenheimer” coming out this weekend. I’d expect a huge dip in week 2. Hope I’m wrong!
Fallout is one of the best action films of all time. This one not reaching hose highs was to be expected.
And with the second thing, I think the film will be "saved" by the overseas box office which don't think will take as big of a hit because of Barbenheimer which seems to be more of an american thing. Internationally this movie is much bigger than those two.
I went to mission impossible and it was awesome.
Obviously opinions may vary but I didn't think Mission Impossible Dead Reckoning was the best in the franchise. The story and plot were pretty weak. Some of the dialogue was very exposition heavy and we don't get much of a look or motivation into some of the new characters. The ultimate villain was kind of disappointing as well, as it's been done before and doesn't have the same impact as previous villains.
Completely agree.
I agree it’s still a solid action movie just one of the weakest in the series
Do people not have the money for the movies at the moment?
they do
They definitely do! The movie audience these days are just selective with what movies they want to see.
I saw it early screening on Tuesday and my theater was packed
You know what has affected my movie watching habits? Movie theatres no longer have really late movie times. The last movie time at my local theatre is always 10:30pm. If there was an 11pm showing I would probably go more often.
10:30pm isn't late?
@@davidd4696 Before covid I've seen movie times start at 11 and 11:30!!! Especially for premieres to juice up the box office receipts.
Blame Streaming.. Everyone waits now so they can watch movies at home plus it’s cheaper..
Quality of movies aside, movie ticket + concession prices are becoming absolutely outrageous. There is no way for a family of 4 to prioritize going to the movies over paying bills and groceries.
you're not required to eat there.
support this movie by any means necessary.. this film deserves every cent .
The movie didn’t disappoint in anyway, it was perfect 🤭
The reason people aren’t rushing out is because there’s a new HUGE movie every week. They stacked June and h July with too much. This isn’t pre-pandemic where every week was a new billion $$ movie. That was getting ridiculous. So we had a little reset. And it’s like the industry thinks everything should just BE the way it was.
i think older folks like boomers don't watch the movie opening weekend. I know my parents are waiting a week or two to watch it just for tom cruise.
A lot of people I work with had no idea the movie was in the theater. From the people I told, 3 out of 4 went to go see it this past weekend. Its a marketing problem.
Why does majority of dud films are favorite of Mr. CAMPEA😂
Cause he has horrible taste! LOL
the budgets for these tent-pole
movies have got to be scaled back
Simple explanation - If you're an average moviegoer, you go to cinema once, maybe twice a month (max). In July we already had Indiana Jones (Nostalia fans are out), in 3 days we have Oppenheimer and Barbie opening = and I can tell you from European perspective - I had to pre-buy both tickets because of the generated interest. This means that average moviegoer has to be picky, and it seems MI7 was not the pick for majority for July.
John, you say it yourself in your MintMobile ads, Inflation. The general movie goer has to pick and choose which film to invest time and money into; $100 can only go so far.
Also, when you know the movie will hit streaming (also most of us are paying around $100 for all streaming services) around 45 days later... Why even go when your money is invested in the streaming platforms. Think like the common person and your answers will be found.
You guys are not taking into account that it is a 5 day opener. It is Mission Impossible, it has an A cinemascore, its going to leg out.
That's...kind of the issue there. A 5-day opening weekend with A-score cinema and good word-of-mouths and still manage only $80 mil....Next week Barbie and Oppenheimer takes over all the premium screens and Cruise will probably complain to studio executives on why their scheduling sucks lol
Oppenheimer is taking the IMAX theaters and Barbie is tracking very well. It may not have as much lasting power just because it’s a packed weekend
One of the reasons is it's length. At 3hrs, they had fewer daily viewings. That could have cost them millions.
The action set pieces were awesome.... the script was a god damn dumpster fire. I assume it was written by some guys who were fired from a soap opera writing job, its that bad. Half of the dialogue is so god damn cheesy I almost expected the actors to turn to the camera after the line and go "Duh.. Duh... DUUUHHHHHHHHH!!!!!" or something.
As I understand it Cruise and the director who has done the last couple of movies never start filming with a completed script. They sort of write as they go along.
I hope audiences learn to appreciate this live because it's bunkers it's great, thrilling and it takes you to the edge of your seat. There's one event in the movie that I wish didn't happen... And the whole train sequence is awesome!
Older demographic is paying to see it meanwhile younger demographic recognizes it but never grew up with the franchise
They are streaming for free
Saw it last night....loved it!!
Good ass movie i think word of mouth Will be strong
I think its streaming… ppl are waiting for it to come out on stream and watch it at home with their big tvs and NOW with affordable soundbars.
I didn't go this weekend to avoid the crowd. Will be seeing it this coming weekend. I re-watched all six to get back up to speed.
I want to watch MI, but my summer schedule is too busy. Hope to watch it in the next few weeks.
This movie was awesome. I think I still love Fallout and Rogue Nation more, but like I still love these movies so much.
Maybe it's because people are saving their money for the Barbenheimer double feature. Hollywood seriously needs to stop releasing big movies close to each other.
This is a false narrative. The opening was NOT disappointing at all. It's right in line with M:I films and isn't the biggest opening yet. It geew the standard amount.
They ALL open like that and have great legs.
All they did was speead the opening out over 5 days instead of a standard 3 day. Day for day it the biggeat opening.
They ARE supporting it the same way they do with EVERY M:I film.
To expect them to susdenly open twice as big as "usual" is just not realistic.
It's likely to be the highest grossing M:I film. The only problem is the Covid affected budget. Adding over $50m to the film. They knew this, it will be fine, AND the next one will cost the "norm" .
The kegs for M:I films are great 3.5x multiplier is likely.
@Gralde620 That is a genuine concern. They are huge movies covering a LOT of the audience. It's just that every M:I film since 3 has had spectacular legs and it offers a very different kind of entertainment/fun than the other 2 films.
They all have had competition (not quite this big), but Fallout legged out despite Crazy Rich Asians and The Meg grossing $174m and $145m during it's run.
Cinemagoing has changed post-Pandemic, and I do share your concern, but these films do follow a pattern, and it was never going to open "huge." 👍🏾
I am from India and People here are rushing with their families to watch this MI 7 flick.🙂 GOOD JOB TOM CRUISE AND TEAM!!!
Because it causes too much money to go to the movies that's why
I genuinely think its ticket prices. In NYC a premium screen (IMAX, Dolby Cinema) costs $28. Regular is about $18. I think people are also being picky because of these prices. The other movies mentioned did well possibly because of nostalgia, recent excitement for the new franchises (Spiderverse, John Wick). As awesome as Dead Reckoning is, and I highly recommend it, its long and they go Rogue again but I'm not sure if the general audience even knows. A few people I talked to said to me "there's a new Mission Impossible movie?". Its a tough time financially for a lot of people, I think they're being very picky.
Imagine if they put the ticket price down then they might actually make more money
For some reason commenters like JC seem to never address/mention some of the major reasons for box office declines of even the quality movies. Economic factors for the average person have become strained over the last 3 years; first due to COVID, then due to inflation and other high costs of living (housing, gas, etc.). So maybe people choose more carefully or more specifically when spending their money. Then there are the less quantifiable factors like personal taste, and people waiting for renting or streaming even though certain movies are much better experienced in the theatre. While people like myself (and obviously JC) may have the luxury of having sufficient funds to see several movies a year at theatres (and going to see one more than once), and can also afford many streaming services on top of that at the same time, not everyone does. Also I usually don’t go see things on opening weekends; I typically go on the 2nd or 3rd weekend or even a Tuesday night when it’s cheaper (I’m going to this M:I movie tomorrow which is a Tuesday). So that’s another consideration JC is not taking into account.
Don’t forget the runtime could have been a factor.
I was debating seeing it again on Friday after going Tuesday night, but the runtime ultimately affected my decision.
2 things to factor about these so-so box office numbers…1) Streaming 2) The NEED to actually go see the movie in theaters.
Streaming has made it very convenient for people to easily say “I can wait.” Many friends/family have told me this especially with ticket prices being so costly.
Which is why there’s not really a NEED for people to see some of these movies. Spider-Verse 2, Guardians 3, John Wick 4…a lot of people were invested, young people especially.
Mario and Barbie have had generations of fans.
I don’t know many under 25 running out to see Mission Impossible despite it being pretty good 🤷🏽♂️
I would go but I feel like I've blown my movie budget for this year seeing Guardians and Spider-Verse so many times.
Its a Good Movie
FALLOUT is still the best in the series with DEAD RECKONING a close second. The problem with the box office is not the QUALITY but the INTEREST. (The Transformers movies directed by Michael Bay prove that GARBAGE can make money as long as there's INTEREST by the audience to see it. TOP GUN MAVERICK was a hit because many people WANTED to see it.
America isn't supporting a lot of movies. Regardless of how you feel about a particular movie, there is not the same attendance as pre-pandemic. It seems like people don't want to go see movies as much, maybe because they don't want to spend the money going to see movies that they are not certain will be good?... It doesn't matter if it is actually good or not. Plus, it will be on streaming in about 45 days, at a cheaper price relative to spending money at the movies. My family of 4 cost about $75 to see a movie at a discount theater. Imagine that cost at AMC or other theater chains.
GOG3 and Spidervese made over $100 million on their openings. People want to watch movies but it has to be a major event. the Nth Mission Impossible doesn't count.
top gun, avatar?
I must agree it’s an awesome movie I really loved it!!! GO SEE IT!!!
The gane is not on domestic level...its global level...and in that place... This movie going to beat all the above mentioned movies lifetime in two weeks.... Barbie isn't even a competition in global scale..its the Oppenheimer...that has the craze...but when its about to have fun MI7 has long legs...the movie is simply great.. can't wait for the next one...
I hope it makes money
Part of it is inflation being out of control and part of it is streaming service inevitability. But studios are also to blame due to outrageous budgets and costs. Lots of great movies are going to be considered failures just because of the cost. That won’t change my opinion of the quality of the movies though.
OMG! This is whole "Nobody is showing up and everything is bombing!" narrative is getting ridiculous. I mean, did we all go to the theater that much before COVID? Just how many movies do we have to see in the theater just to keep these studios open? Maybe the problem isn't people aren't showing up, maybe its the studios are spending WAY TOO MUCH MONEY on mediocre, derivative movies that we've already seen. What are we up to now? 7 MI movies?! And it's just Part I! Ridiculous! I'm saving my time and money for Barbie and Oppenheimer because they are actually original movies with new ideas and new stories. I'll watch MI: Dead Reckoning when I can stream it on Paramount +, just like all the other remakes and sequels that keep getting pumped out into theaters.
Same here.
I saw the movie, and I enjoyed it! Years ago I probably would have seen this movie twice. As others have mentioned, it’s too expensive to see a movie currently. Between gas to the theater, IMAX ticket price, and concessions, it was about $35-$40 for one person. I’ll save my money for the second viewing on streaming.
John, understand. The Movie Going Experience is now a "luxury" and not a "necessity". For others, the movie came out during a week many weren't getting paid (which is idiotic). Some people can't live comfortably and spare the budget a movie ticket like you can.
we still running with that luxury tag line?
Similar to other recent films part of a franchise this summer (Fast X, The Little Mermaid, Transformers: Rise of the Beasts etc.), it's a fine number to be at, it just needs to be budgeted accordingly.
The covid protocols and production due throw a big monkey wrench into it. Tom Cruise was adamant about keeping people employed when the rest of the industry was shut down.
The thing is John this film is going to have legs! Unlike other films the older crowds don’t rush out to theaters it’s the same with Indy 5. Anyone under 35 don’t rush out to see films for the opening weekend. Other thing it will be in theaters for a while and not go streaming fast. So the good thing people have lots of time to see it.
The blame falls on Indy 5 and Flash for viewers being bummed out,
and not having enough positive energy left to go out and buy those tickets.
Honestly i think it's cause with this movie season being so heavy a lot of Americans can really only afford to choose 1 movie a month that you want to go see. Especially with movie theaters being so expensive and the economy maybe taking a hit. Like This month for most moviegoers it's gonna be Oppenheimer and/or barbie that they choose to spend their money on. So i honestly believe that's the reason
in real reports on that?
It's unfair to compare opening weekend numbers with other movies that actually opened on the weekend. This one opened on Wednesday.
Because American audience want to whinge about quality of movies, but then go and watch Marvel shit..
True....
But those shitty marvel movies was saving hollywood.this ain't nothing new.When dune 2 comes out and flop i want to see what you youtube cinema guys and girls going to say.Yall going to blame it on marvel lol.
John…”domestic box office” isn’t only America. It’s America and Canada.
American made but they are set mostly in Europe etc. a lot of actors too from Britain or Europe too. I’m in the UK and love it.
Mision Imposible long tradicional run in international box office might be in danger too, because Nolan movies also tend to get their money overseas, in a long run. Besides that, in the last 2 months he have seen SO MANY blockbusters. Many people in the world only go to the cinema once or twice, so, its logical they will strugle to break even.
Maverick has more charm and more lighthearted. MI is more grounded, darker and dialogue heavy
I guess I was in the minority then because I wasn't the biggest fan of this movie.
That stuns me, I assumed when they said worldwide it did 240 million, most of that would be domestic North America, hopefully it has good legs, it deserves it.
Its too expensive to go to the movies now i can barely afford too see a handful of movies a year especilly with how hit or miss movies have been lately
Saw it last monday night, loved it :) would have seen it again but its almost 3hrs long :D
I believe MI:DR will continue to sell tickets in spite of Barbenheimer
Maybe the actors strike killed the appetite of some movie goers
They’re a bit old fashioned. The 40+ demographics gonna have to help this one out.
Loved this movie. Overall i say best Hollywood movie this year. Loved GOTG3 but animal cruelty scenes were tough. Across the Spiderverse actually well done multiverse movie however it is a multiverse movie.
I think Mission Impossible films sometimes have a slightly convoluted plot for general audiences and I also think the run time turned people away. I mean its not just 2 hours 45 minutes…its literally 3+ hours with the heavily loaded theatre commercials and trailers.
With that said I think this film will do well globally and have really good legs.
I loved this film also see Past Lives John.
the flash was a good movie, great comic book movie. MI7 was a great movie, bonkers top10 action movie of all time. what are people waiting for?
For it to come to streaming, unfortunately. Outside of film nerds, most people seem to prefer just waiting for movies to be available to stream.
After all that marketing, it didn't even beat Ant-Man.
IMO it’s critical to the survival of movie theaters that these next three big movies including this one are hits. GO TO THE THEATER PEOPLE
When I mention the movie to guys, their reaction is “oh there’s a new one? Cool. Is it streaming?”
When I mention it to women, their reaction is “Ew, Tom Cruise? Isn’t he like a psycho?” I’m excited to see it but I don’t know anyone else who is.
I heard very little hype for Mission Impossible. I've heard loads of people wanna see Barbie and Oppenheimer. THAT said I think Mission Impossible is one of the best movies this year.
Of course the weekend wasnt huge, it opened on Wednesday and was already playing in theatres on Monday. I saw it Monday night and the theatre was sold out.
its not disappointing. lmao. this movie will have legs. 🙄
People can’t afford going to the movies every week. This is the first summer where we have consecutive big movies coming out
ticket prices are to high not including the popcorn and stuff
