Bombshell Bombs at the Box Office
It seemed like it was a movie that we have already seen before.
When the Roger Ailes mess played out at Fox News many read about it day after day after more and more women came forward.
Then the books came out and people were able to read more on what brought down Ailes and helped spur the #MeToo movement.
Then you had the series on Showtime and now you have a big screen movie titled “Bombshell.”
The movie has a string cast, but it seems that it is just too late to the party.
I think everyone that cared about the problems with Ailes and Fox News have had their fill. The other people never did care and aren’t going to go see the movie in the first place.
That is likely why Bombshell bombed at the box office.
The movie finished 5th at the box office, bring in just over $5 million and putting it far behind Snow White and the Huntsman which pulled in $50 million more than Bombshell.
