Listen to this article
One of the most controversial recently released by Sony Pictures, the story of black woman fighters, ‘The Woman King’ has received mostly positive reviews from critics. But it’s also received mixed reviews from the audience, and the reason behind these types of audience reactions is the racist angle and the untold truth. But anyway, despite the controversial film, it has performed pretty well at the box office, which means controversy is affecting the box office in positive ways.
Is The Woman King Hit Or Flop?
As per reports, Sony Pictures’ historical epic ‘The Woman King’ was released in the USA on September 16, 2022, in more than 3700 theaters, collected $6.81 million on its opening day (including $1.7 million from Thursday night previews) and $19.05 million on its opening weekend at North American box office. Overall, it has so far collected $67.32 million domestically and $25.10 million overseas, for a wordwide total of $92.42 million[1].
Despite the too many controversies around the film, Sony Pictures ‘The Woman King’ has performed above expectations at the box office, which means more headlines are proving to be a box office changer for the film. But Besides the opening, the total production cost of ‘The Woman King’ is $50 million, and including P&A costs, the break-even mark is est. $100 million, and the historical epic has failed to complete it. Considering the break-even mark and box office performance, Gina Prince-Bythewood’s ‘The Woman King’ has ended its box office run with a below-average film at the box office.
Talking about the exact critical response, then, ‘The Woman King’ received a 6.8/10* IMDb rating based on 52k votes, and on Rotten Tomatoes, it scored 94/100% based on 261 reviews.
Despite that, the film has started very well, but at the moment, this film is not profitable in any way, and that’s not good news for Sony Pictures, and anyway, the year 2022 has not gone well for Sony Pictures, except for ‘Uncharted’ and ‘Where The Crawdads Sing’. So now it turns out that Sony Pictures needs to focus on its upcoming films.

The Woman King was awesome!
No it was woke as an SNL joke.
There’s that racially tinged word “woke”. I guess a movie about powerful black women is somehow a blow to the “anti-woke” agenda. My god it’s a movie it doesn’t have to be political.
It’s a woke movie, “king” is a tittle always given to man. “Last powerful black “Queen”.-
Since they made an army of marauding slave traders into heroes, it’s already political.
The woman king …. woke as it gets say the name again the woman king.
Its about a tribe of slavers.
Lol learn history “sista” you people 🤣 I swear Lol not only was there NEVER A WOMAN KING also that tribe was responsible for the slave trade more than any white man haha so yea go woke.. go broke..
Make no mistake the colorless people with their violent tendencies were and still are responsible for the slave trade and all the destruction of civilization. You did not create civilization but you destroyed it. Look around you and see it plainly. You are destroying the planet.
But it is.
Every time I read the title, I get reminded of Cecily Strong’s SNL skit – “Don’t man-terrupt me while I’m woma-king a point” LOL
Agreed. China needs to speed up its African colonization mission as civilized people (aka non-Africants) are frankly tired of sharing a planet with such an eye sore of a continent and primitive people whose IQ rivals that of a asshole. Plus, everyone knows once the Chinese have successfully overtaken that cesspool of a continent, it’s adios negros aka people (of the same hair/eye/skin) color.
Also, 13% of the overall population committing 54% of all murders is precisely why – no matter the soil that their smelly, -colored feet walks on – Africants will always be feral animals at heart. In Africa, they call it “tribal warfare”. In America, they call it “gang violence”.
I just hope all of the colored people talked really loud during this late term abortion of a movie as payback for all the movies these primates ruined for civilized people.
And white people commit Genocides. And create world wars, killing far more than. any black person has in the history of the world.
Right…what facts do you have or are you just racist
Hey why don’t you tell us your name and who you are? I mean stand by what you say or are you just another coward hiding in anonymity?
sad small minded
So in Sony making their $125 million back in everything then Woman King was truly a flop for Sony then. How is making $19 million dollars at the boxoffice great thing over all. If Marvel moive came out at the same week woman king would got killed that the boxoffice.
If you like fictional then yes but this was not base on real events,
Actually, it is based on real historical events. The Dahomey Kingdom and its female army, the Amazons, was real as well as the Kingdom described as black slave traders. What is inaccurate in the movie is the Kingdom being anti-slavery. It was well-known as one of the most brutal slave-trading tribes in African history. This movie depicts female empowerment that didn’t exist in that time period depicted – the 1820s.
They weren’t actually Amazon’s. Lmfao wrong country. It’s heavily dramatized and the only actual historical real person was the actual king. All the females were literally made up for the movie.
It flopped the fact that it got a 99% Audience Score on RT speaks more to how fake Rotten Tomatoes is as a bought & paid for review site. I am not going to be guilted into seeing a trash film if I don’t want to
LMAO, unless the movie is one racism will allow you to like, in that case everyone at Rotten Tomatoes is a genius I’m sure. Nice try smoothbrain
A movie like this beats black panther in ratings? And you think it’s all above board? Right.
It’s funny that they take a movie that they know flopped but are too scared to say it didn’t. Nobody is interested in seeing women acting like men. Just like the WNBA.
I can only say part of the movie was horrible since I left early.
Terrible film full of female chimpanzees. Don’t watch it.
Kek
No thanks!
Says the sasquatch as he prepares to mount his mom 🙂
Awww lil jogger is offended huh hahah
Hopefully after the Civil War we will have a day of the rope and hang these useless porch monkeys and their children. 1488.
Slow down Wilbur. Be nice and there will be a nice slop jar waiting for you and your inbred kin.
LOL. What’s wrong, Wilbur. Did the farmer forget to fill the slop jar. Let’s here that rebel yell SQUEEE
Nah you’re the one who will be on the business end of the rope, Cletus.
Before that happens, you will have long been a lobotomized social media monkey.
A mental slave the 2022 version of slavery.. this isn’t the 1400’s.
You are the modern version of what you wish to see others as, you just dont know
it.
by the way your slave quarters is these boxes, good luck freeing yourself.
Viola Davis pushing this as a Historical Drama is as accurate as “The Man in the High Castle” was a true story and if you don’t take your family to see it you’re clearly racist
Its opening weekend it went head-to-head with no other film. It had more theaters than every other film. It had more showtimes than other films at some theaters and is being protected by rotten tomatoes and review-fluffed by other outlets that are obviously in bed with Sony. Just wait until ‘Avatar’ re-releases this weekend and watch the second week drop off. That will be more epic than this film
And it still flipped lol
And today it rank as 1,271 in the box office (Domestic) lol
I loved it 😍
Sony should learn to make movies that people want to see. The title alone is boring.
I reject anything that pushes false narratives and or propaganda because it’s a tool of deception with the intention of misleading the group thinkers.
The break even is not $125 million. The film is now profitable at $78 million. Damn so many racists in these comments.
Did you not read the article
And rank 1,271 at the domestic box office….LOL
Loved it.
Go woke, go BROKE!
Shut up vendido 😂
I loved the movie!! One of the best out there. Actually, I put it up there with Top Gun.
