Leonardo DiCaprio’s One Battle After Another Reaches $100 Million at the Box Office

Recent box office reports indicate positive momentum for Leonardo DiCaprio and Paul Thomas Anderson’s latest film. It performed very well during its second weekend in cinemas.

The movie *One Battle After Another* earned $21.7 million internationally this weekend, increasing its total international earnings to $58.9 million. With a drop of only 22% in international sales, the film’s worldwide box office revenue has now exceeded $100 million. The story follows a man who must save his daughter from a dishonest military official.

The film *One Battle After Another* continued to perform well in its second week, which is a positive sign, particularly after a strong opening. It debuted in the US and Canada alongside *Gabby’s Dollhouse: The Movie* and *The Strangers: Chapter 2*, and was initially predicted to earn between $20 and $25 million domestically, with another $20 million expected from international showings. Ultimately, the film brought in $22 million over its opening weekend.

The DiCaprio film has now earned over $100 million at the box office, bringing Warner Bros. Pictures closer to recouping its investment. While the production cost between $130 and $175 million, that doesn’t include the money spent on marketing and advertising. The movie needs to continue performing well in theaters for a while longer to become profitable.

Despite recently gaining commercial traction, *One Battle After Another* has already received widespread critical praise. The film boasts a 95% approval rating from critics, and audiences overwhelmingly agree, with 85% of over 2,500 viewers giving it a positive review. Reviewers have particularly lauded Paul Thomas Anderson’s direction, describing the movie as both his most enjoyable and most thought-provoking work to date.

Critics Are Loving Leonardo DiCaprio’s Latest Movie

Alongside Leonardo DiCaprio, the movie *One Battle After Another* features a stellar cast including Sean Penn, Benicio del Toro, Regina Hall, Teyana Taylor, and Chase Infiniti. The film is based on Thomas Pynchon’s *Vineland*, and its large budget is probably a result of DiCaprio and the director’s participation.

Recent box office results demonstrate how much a positive critical response can impact a film’s success. Critics were enthusiastic about the movie even before its release, and now audiences are responding in kind. Ben Morganti, for example, described it as a deeply moving and relatable story, and even went so far as to call it a “complete cinematic masterpiece” by Anderson.
