Prior to Fahrenheit 11/9, Michael Moore’s most recent documentary was terrible… and that’s according to the box office haul!
The latest piece of propaganda made far less money than any of his other movies by a wide margin, as The Guardian reports:
Where to Invade Next, Michael Moore’s documentary in which he travels the globe in search of inspirational legislation which might be adopted by the US, is his worst-performing film ever.
His first movie for six years, it opened across 308 cinemas in the US last weekend taking $897,034 (£620,231) for a location average of $2,912. That’s considerably less than the $4,452 taken by The Big One in 1998, as well as the $3,810 per screen taken by his fiction film, Canadian Bacon, in 1995.
And it’s substantially less than the $57,991 taken in each cinema by Capitalism: A Love Story in 2009.
