The box office of the film Text (2019) met the expectations of analysts and creators. The tape, based on the best-selling novel of the same name by Dmitry Glukhovsky, was positively appreciated by both viewers and critics. The film's worldwide box office has not been disclosed, but its Russian box office is already known.
First weekend rental
How much did Text (2019) make in its first weekend? Although the picture with Alexander Petrov in the title role had a large number of sessions, its attendance left much to be desired - on average, 16 people per session.
Probably, the visits were strongly influenced by other failed films of the domestic distribution of 2019, so viewers were very skeptical. In addition, the motion picture was rivaled by such Hollywood projects as: "Maleficent 2: Lady of Darkness", "Joker" "Zombieland: Test Shot".
However, the film still managed to justify itself, and in the end it collected 92 million rubles in the first week of distribution. Interestingly, on the second day of the rental, the advertising of the tape on federal channels was banned, and viewers learned about it through social networks and word of mouth. But, despite this, the fall in fees was only 16%, and over two weekends the project raised more than 200 million rubles.
General fees
At the moment, the box office of the film "Text" (2019) is 379 million rubles with a budget of 75 million. It is noted that the picture was filmed without state support for production and advertising money.
The leading actors are proud of the box office for Text (2019). In particular, Kristina Asmus believes that the project has become a “phenomenon of Russian cinema”.
The tape showed a good result at the box office and was highly appreciated by the audience, despite its controversial nature, and now it can rightfully be called one of the most successful domestic projects of 2019.
