Trump's Melania Doc Misleads on Box Office Fate
Despite Donald Trump's boast that the Melania documentary is a 'very successful' movie, box office figures show otherwise: opening domestically to $7.1 million behind other releases, $16.1 million global against a $75 million budget, a sharp 67% second-week drop, poor critical reception (11% critics on Rotten Tomatoes, 1.4/10 IMDb), and thus no evidence of a box office hit—Amazon paid $40 million to acquire and spent $35 million marketing, so a theatrical profit is unlikely, though future Prime Video performance could differ.
