DC and Warner Bros.' long-in-the-works superhero movie"The Flash" opened to $55 million in its first three days in North American theaters, according to studio estimates on Sunday.
The studio's leadership remained bullish on releasing their $200 million movie, however, confident in its quality and importance to future DC Studios storylines. The movie introduces the multiverse, which allowed for the return of Michael Keaton's Batman in a movie that also had Ben Affleck's Batman.
Critics were mixed but more positive than not, with a 67% on Rotten Tomatoes. AP's Jocelyn Noveck wrote in her review that despite some"breezily clever and entertaining" moments,"the final act bogs down in what feels like an endless, generic CGI battle and a kitchen-sink resolution." "Elemental" was greeted positively by critics, with a 76% on Rotten Tomatoes, and audiences . AP's Jake Coyle wrote that it's"probably in the lower half" of the Pixar cannon but"sincere and clever, with a splash of dazzle," it,"comes closer to rekindling some of the old Pixar magic than some recent entries."Including $15 million from 17 international territories,"Elemental" launched to $44.5 million globally.
