During its opening weekend, it grossed an underwhelming $55 million at the domestic box office. In its second weekend, that dropped 72% to a mere $15.3 million, with some pundits already predicting this will be a box office bomb.
According to Luiz Fernando, the film is estimated to earn $280-310 million globally in its theatrical run. When pitted against The Flash’s $200-220 million production budget, $150 million in marketing, and the fact that studios don’t take all of their box office haul, the movie may lose $200 million for Warner Bros.
Fernando believes they may have lost less money by releasing it on Max or not releasing it at all.

What the fuck story are you telling that's longer and more complex?
Idk that makes me a little interested. Like how can this movie possibly be constructed so as to be 4 hours long? Now I wanna watch it.
It's loosely based on a comic book crossover event that covered a five (5) issue limited series, sixteen three (3) issue limited series, and four (4)one-shots. Depending on how much of that you wanted to tell, you could stretch it out for however long you wanted.
Notably, however, the direct to video animated Flashpoint movie boiled it all down to 80 minutes.
I'd watch the director's cut for the same reason. His power is just running fast right? The movie would just be him running toward or away from things for as long as a marathon lasts.
I miss the 90 minute movie.
When I see a well reviewed movie hit a tight 90 minutes, it's almost an instant watch from me. Please, more 90-minute movies.
