Speaking about the latest part 8, Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning, it has emerged as a losing affair. Keep reading for a detailed report!
Mission: Impossible franchise loses its form
Tom is undoubtedly the biggest action movie star globally, and he enjoys a massive fan base worldwide. One of the biggest reasons behind this reputation is his popular Mission: Impossible franchise, but unfortunately, its movies have failed to meet high expectations lately. While the collections have been decent to good for the last two installments, they look underwhelming considering the box office target.
Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One underperforms at the worldwide box office
The seventh installment, Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One, was reportedly made on a huge budget of $291 million. According to the general thumb rule (especially for Hollywood films), a film must earn 2.5 times its budget to become a clean success. In the case of Dead Reckoning Part One, the target wasn’t achieved. The film wrapped up at $579 million at the worldwide box office, against its target of $727.5 million. So, it fell short of $156.5 million.
