The Smashing Machine is tanking at the box office despite having such a heavyweight star. Meanwhile, Channing Tatum’s film Roofman has a budget three times less than Dwayne Johnson’s, and it outpaced the latter in less than seven days. Keep scrolling for the deets.
The Tatum-led movie is also inspired by the real life of a spree robber who hid in a toy store after escaping from prison. Johnson’s film is a biography, but it is highly underperforming economically. Derek Cianfrance’s crime comedy also beat The Rock with its debut weekend collection of $8.1 million.
Roofman’s box office collection after five days in North America
