| Movie Verdict (Box Office) | Flop |
In-Text: ‘The Hunger Games’ prequel has grossed $121.74 million domestically and $243.94 million globally, against a production budget of $100-150 million. With extra costs for marketing, the prequel needs at least $350 million to become a successful film, and anything less would be considered a failure for the makers and distributors. Despite receiving mixed reviews and the absence of Jennifer Lawrence, the fifth installment has debuted well at the box office compared to its production cost. Still, the film is currently viewed more as an average performer than a success, as the chances of it performing well in the long run are slim.
