Stats from Universal:LES MIS opened in 4 territories this weekend. Iceland and Romania had very good openings. All the new opening films in Poland were affected by snowstorms and frigid weather and Croatian results will be available Monday.

"Les Mis added $10.1 million from 3,100
locations in 45 territories, pushing its overseas cume to $215 million.
The global cume is now $359 million. Key openings are still scheduled
for China, France, Germany and Mexico. Stats from Universal:Russia had a
good opening at No. 3 with $1.6M at 470 dates.
It is the second
biggest musical opening behind Mamma Mia. Taiwan had an outstanding
Chinese New Year opening at No. 3 with $698k at 58 dates. It is the
biggest musical opening of all time in Taiwan. Chinese New Year
holidays run through next weekend and we should see great results during
the week. We had good openings in Israel at No. 2 with $122k at 26
dates and Ukraine at No. 2 with $165k at 76 dates.
Latvia will report
its opening tomorrow."

 

 

That's a funny spin, those aren't actually good openings at all.

Not sure if ridiculously good or incredibly bad.

It's pathetic.

 

For comparison, this is 6.7% of TASM OD, 5.6% of Avengers OD, and 4% of TDKR, and none of those films were in the top 5 of 2012

Simple answer, 2h40 movie, entirely sung, and most of all, there is no french version (thank god), they didn"t dub it, so it's basically the movie as it is + french subtitles.

 

Knowing that, I just had a feeling it was going to do bad. The critical response was terrible too, from the critics, it's like most of them expected an adaptation of the novel, and not the musical.
