Home Entertainment Hollywood Robert Pattinson starrer The Batman earns over Rs 3800 crore worldwide.
Robert Pattinson’s The Batman is garnering a lot of love from fans across the world. The DC film, which entered its third week on Friday, has so far collected a total of Rs 3850 crore worldwide. As per BoxOffice Mojo, the film’s total presently stands at $505,757,833.
The Batman, English version, collected Rs 30.08 crore in its first week, as reported by Bollywood Hungama. As per trade expert Joginder Tuteja, the box office figures in India stand at Rs 44 crore, for all languages.
The Batman has been co-written and directed by Matt Reeves. It features the Caped Crusader who has been prowling the streets of Gotham City for two years, but is struggling with unresolved trauma. He and his ally, Gotham City Police Department Lieutenant Jim Gordon (Jeffrey Wright), are hot on the trail of a serial killer who calls himself the Riddler (Paul Dano).
The Batman, co-starring Zoe Kravitz as Selina Kyle aka Catwoman, is also the first movie in over a year that WB has released exclusively in theatres.
A reviewer gave the superhero film a two-and-a-half star rating. She wrote in her review, “The Batman makes a big deal of a lot about its hero. Everything about him moves in slower motion (that is, for not wanting to call him slow) – which by the way could partly explain the bloated three-hour length of the film. And this Batman really likes talking about himself. “They think I am hiding in the shadows, I am the shadows”, he says early on, just before landing some punches on a few lumpens. “I am Vengeance”, he introduces himself to another such group; “This city is beyond saving, but I have to try,” he says to no one in particular.”
In IMAX, The Batman delivered $22.3M worldwide, the biggest global opening weekend for the format in 2022 and the 2nd biggest since December 2019. On 320 IMAX screens in 74 overseas markets, the movie scored $7.3M for a per screen average of nearly $23K.
Studios earned $120 million worldwide, bringing its global total to $254 million over the opening weekend. Then it swung another $11.1 million in North America on Monday, pushing the worldwide tally closer to $270 million. The Caped Crusader is no stranger to blockbuster ticket sales, of course.
While talking about the movie, Zoe Kravitz‘s Catwoman and Paul Dano’s Riddler are particularly receiving the most praise. The audience is turning out to see the detective story in motion, with the superhero antics of Robert Pattinson’s Dark Knight.
One of the biggest reasons this DC flick produced by Warner Bros is doing well at the box office as compared to their other 2021 releases, is due to its exclusive theatrical release. WB decided to not release The Batman on HBO Max as of now, which was a smart and sensible move.Now, there has been a new update that the Matt Reeves directorial is reaching a new milestone globally.
Though the film opened to tremendous applause and praise, some aspects of it haven’t settled well with some fans. For instance, the DC flick received criticism over its Asian victim scene shown in the starting. Several people thought that considering the current situation of the American-Asians, the scene seemed ‘triggering.’
