Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson Reacts After ‘The Smashing Machine’ Flops at Box Office

Despite strong reviews and a 15-minute standing ovation at its premiere, Mark Kerr's biopic opened third with $5.9M, marking Johnson’s lowest-grossing debut. “You can’t control box office results,” he wrote. “But you can control your performance and commitment to disappear and go elsewhere. This film has changed my life.” The $50M production is expected to lose $10–15M.
