Horror films are always a trend setter, and there are such interesting productions that reach people in different ways, showing that there are productions suitable for all audiences and that not only people of age should see films of this genre. With a PG-13 rating, Five Nights At Freddy’s has broken box office records that many have not been able to.
Five Nights At Freddy’s has arrived during Halloween eve and people have loved it, unlike the critics who apparently would have hated it, but that is not enough for it to even have higher numbers than releases like Marvel has had.
What has happened with Five Nights At Freddy’s is something extremely interesting, since it has shown the discrepancy that exists between the critics and the audience, who is the one who pays for the tickets and this would also be showing that the critics’ opinion does not matter much about the voice to voice that the production has had.
Five Nights At Freddy’s is about to surpass the box office of Black Widow
According to Variety, Five Nights at Freddy’s grossed US$80 million at the U.S. box office, surpassing that of Black Widow at the time. Both films had their theatrical and streaming releases simultaneously.
Recall that the film has only recently opened, so it still has several weeks left at the box office, which would estimate that the film would even surpass Marvel’s Black Widow in final box office.
The website specialized in movie comparisons has shared the current results that it is having in reception, showing that critics have rated the film with a 29% approval rating and 147 reviews, while the audience has given it an 89% approval rating with more than 1000 reviews. So now the question is… who do I listen to?
