About

Faves asks one question about every film before it opens: does it make its money back? You call it bomb or boom, and later the box office says whether you were right.

We estimate break-even at two and a half times the production budget: marketing usually costs about as much again as the film did, and cinemas keep roughly half the ticket price. Streaming and home video are not in those figures, and studio accounting is not public, so every verdict here is an estimate from public numbers.
