On Rotten Tomatoes, critics have given it a 32 percent Tomatometer score. The audience rating was only 72 percent, which would hardly send people to the cinema.
Now there is more pressure on Henry Cavill’s next film after Rotten Tomatoes and Box Office disaster
Henry Cavill’s upcoming action comedy is under even more pressure to do well after the critical and commercial failure of his last spy comedy.
Another big issue is the release date. January and February are usually slow months for movies, and This movie was released the week before the Super Bowl. Although the first week was a success, it still suffered a lot. In fact, that’s what happens on Super Bowl weekend. The delay may have saved some of the box office performance, although it did not guarantee that the film would be profitable.
The absence of established brands has also decreased For Argy‘s chance of success. There were no well-known and considered adaptations, nor were they part of the existing film universe. Many movies have been struggling at the box office recently, even with well-known brands, such as Light years, The Marvelsand Fast X for example. For Argy it was just a movie without an audience, which suffered from failure from the beginning. Cavill’s presence isn’t enough to save him.
