Director calls critics obsolete after movie flop
The latest cinematic venture starring Jenna Ortega has encountered a significant hurdle at the box office, struggling to find traction following its initial release.
The disappointment escalated quickly, with the film experiencing a staggering 85% drop in attendance during its second weekend. For any motion picture, recovering from such a major fumble is an exceptionally rare feat, yet this particular project is battling a far more difficult opponent: a highly divisive critical reception.
While the financial performance has been sobering, the film still possesses considerable potential, built upon a foundation of high-profile talent and inspired direction. The project benefits from being headlined by an impressive ensemble cast and helmed by an established auteur.
Adding another layer of intrigue, the director has recently weighed in, sharing his strong opinions regarding the movie’s reception and addressing the mixed reviews that have surrounded the film.
