Spielberg's Disappointing Film "The Post" Still Managed to Break Even

Spielbergs disappointing film the post still managed to break even

The film "The Day of Reckoning," directed by Steven Spielberg, has technically broken even. It grossed $230 million worldwide against an est. production budget of $115M — enough to cover the production tab, but don't assume it's sitting on profit: P&A and other post-release costs mean the true gain is still murky. The theatrical run wrapped without delivering a major windfall, even with Spielberg's name attached; it's neither disaster nor jackpot, more like a quiet resolution. I'm a bit surprised, to be honest.
