Russell Crowe’s Best-Reviewed Movie in 27 Years Plummets at the Box Office

A Russell Crowe movie with near-unanimous critical praise had been a long time coming; nearly three decades, to be exact. Crowe has starred in well-received movies during this time, of course. But none has held a Rotten Tomatoes score as high as that of his new Western. That said, the movie has struggled to find an audience in theaters, and has now lost the majority of its theatrical footprint after just one week of release. The positive reception will no doubt work in its favor when it debuts on the PVOD market, where Crowe has had exceptional success in recent months with movies such as Nuremberg.
