Box Office: Michael Moore's 'Where to Invade Next' Marks Career Low

The Hollywood Reporter reports:
Michael Moore's Where to Invade Next wasn't greeted by a victory march at the box office, where its per-theater average ranked below those of the filmmaker's previous offerings.

Where to Invade — Moore's first film in six years — opened to an estimated $933,240 from 308 theaters for the three-day holiday weekend. That puts the per-location average at $3,030, the worst of the filmmaker's documentary career behind the $4,452 theater average of The Big One, which opened to $146,909 from 33 theaters in 1998. And it's also behind the $3,810 average of his one feature, Canadian Bacon, which debuted to $53,345 from 14 theaters in 1995.

For the four-day holiday, Where to Invade looks to earn $1 million for a location average of $3,256.
Comrade Moore is getting old and in the way.
