The Angry Birds Movie 2 is, apparently, truly fairly good – however not lots of people went to see it on opening weekend.
The first Angry Birds Movie was a bit of a nightmare, and the critiques mirrored that. That didn’t cease it from having a robust efficiency on the field workplace, although – it opened to $38,155,177 within the US, and ultimately made $352,333,929 worldwide on a $73 million price range. That’s robust sufficient to warrant a sequel.
Now, weirdly, it appears just like the second movie may have a reversed destiny. The movie is at present sitting on 76% constructive critiques on Rotten Tomatoes, with a Metacritic rating of 60. Those are comfortably the very best scores videogame variations have ever earned on both website.
But this isn’t mirrored in any respect within the film’s opening weekend ticket gross sales. According to Box Office Mojo, the film opened within the US to simply $10.5 million, and whereas there’s the potential of it performing properly in abroad markets, that’s nonetheless a really steep drop from the primary movie.
The earlier file was held by Detective Pikachu, which now has the second best reviews of any videogame adaptation ever filmed (and likewise the second highest gross, behind Warcraft, which was enormous in China).
Speaking of China, that’s the place The Angry Birds Movie 2 is more likely to make plenty of its cash – the unique earned $75,872,971 there. International figures for the film aren’t in but, although.
The cultural cache of the Angry Birds has definitely declined – final 12 months, developer Rovio’s market worth plunged by half.
In any case, if you wish to see one of the best reviewed videogame movie of all time, The Angry Birds Movie 2 is now in cinemas.
