$190m-$220m budget, profitability could be possible in the long run.  

Yes, but not the kind of profits they expected. When you spend a lot of  money on the a movie, you expect of make large profits; not sure this will do that.

Can’t see this getting a 3 multiplier. That is not common for the genre

Does anyone know if Metro and London Evening Standard have MC profiles? Both outlets gave The Flash a 4/5. Empire also gave it a 4/5 and has yet to be uploaded to the site.

73% with 63 is actually... not that bad? Since it started at 69% and it usually goes down not up.

They're not, Empire is so we'll see that 4/5 pretty soon.

Bummer since they're glowing, but thanks!

[WebSurfer]

Yeah, this felt like a 60 to 70s RT movie after I finished watching it. Not great, and definitely not the best cbm ever made. Though, I suppose this movie can be viewed as a sign for better things to come from DC.

[Dragoncaine]

Damn, an 85 from Film Threat was just added to MC, but no bump to the score. That publication must be really lightly weighted.

[SpiderByte]

Y'know it's been a while since DCs gotten a more middle of the road kind of reception. Usually it's either slam dunks or total embarrassment, but this is the first "pretty solid" since what, Aquaman?

It's not bad but the problem is that it's not exactly promising either with how the tracking for pre-sales has been lackluster.

My guess is that this movie will make somewhere around 600-650 million worldwide. Enough to break even and maybe even make a bit of a profit, but also enough so that WBD won't miss Ezra Miller, probably won't bother pursuing any elseworlds projects with Keaton's Batman, and Brave and the Bold goes to someone else since Muschietti isn't even signed. 

Also my guess is that this probably marks the end for a while of them exploring this multiverse concept at least in DC.

This has better reviews than Aquaman. Aquaman opened to 67m and ended up with 335m. I know that was Christmas but if The Flash has a better audience reception and it looks like it will it could be very leggy.

[Mr Roark]

Yeah. Sure…

The Suicide Squad was a total bomb and Gunn became the Creative Head of the franchise. I think Muschietti is staying as many reviews are citing the cinematography and action as a highlight (just not the VFX)

Shazam (2019) and The Suicide Squad (2021) both have 90% on RT.

This is about Succession but it applies here too!

90% isn't "pretty solid" though.

I am not sure that DC will give up on the Elseworld, but I suspect that you are right it will end up with a modest profit, which is a better then a flop, sure but tsill not what DC spent all that money for.

Ithknk this film need a really good reception to get the not fanbase excited, and it did get that. it got  a pretty good reception.

And I repest, the sucess both critical and commercial olf ATSV might has stolen some of it's appeal.

[Merkel]

It's still beyond me to this day how Aquaman managed to get a fresh rating.

 

I found it to be absolutely awful
