It's also going to be one of those movies with rigged downvotes on RT's Audience Score and IMDB, right?

EmpireCity Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 The film is ridiculously good and topical as it gets. Going to be a cultural moment type of movie. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PenguinHyphy Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 (edited) I posted in the the early Oscar predictions threads in like January that I am hearing great things from great sources about the movie and that it is commercial and a bit similar to Inside Man. It appears that those people are right judging by the reactions. Those same sources stated that Melissa McCarthy is transformative in her Fox Searchlight movie and have compared her to Jamie Foxx in Ray, so watch out for her possibly winning.

WrathOfHan Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 I imagine Focus will follow a Wind River pattern on this: Aug 10: 4 theaters Aug 17: 50-100 theaters Aug 24: 700-800 theaters Aug 31: 2,500 theaters I could see it pushing 3k theaters on Labor Day or the following weekend providing it doesn't bomb in rural areas.

Nah, I think they are going to go a lot quicker than that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoolioD1 Posted May 18, 2018 Share Posted May 18, 2018 (edited) liked this a lot. definitely Spike's most commercial movie since inside man. toned his style down compared his last few movies (itsnotasgoodaschi-raqthoughsorry). mostly it's fun but packs a punch when it wants to.
