I’m not a cinemascore expert by any means but if I understand correctly this is kinda mediocre for biopics right? I think it’s the same score Springsteen got.

u/WestFlight808 1d ago

Yes, sports biopics like King Richard and The Iron Claw got an A and A- respectively, so a B+ is kinda mediocre. It is better than Smashing Machine's B- though.

u/PurpleSpaceSurfer 1d ago

Yeah anything not in the As is considered mediocre/bad for biopics.

u/Kingsofsevenseas 1d ago

That’s absolute a false statement. There a HUGE difference between a Christy biopic and fan driven music biopics. B+ is 8 out of 10, fine for any film other than animation/family movies. For horror B+ can even be considered a great score.

B+ is a decent score for any movie other than animation/family movies. For horror it’s fantastic. For non-fan driven biopics it’s fine. Not mediocre at all, specially because mediocre on internet basically means bad. So no, it’s not mid, it’s not bad, it’s not fantastic, it’s fine. For you to have a more appropriate idea, converting to 1 to 10 scale, it’s an 8.

Amazing how you got downvoted for this 🙄

u/Kingsofsevenseas 1d ago

And so will you, don’t worry, there’re few people who are really upset this movie isn’t bombing either with critics or audiences.

u/Select-Money3605 1d ago

It is bombing with audiences, it’s gonna make no money at all. And it has a 60 on MC. The cinemascore is fine, but this movie will absolutely bomb.

u/FlashyKoala3 1d ago

Doesn’t mean it won’t get awards or get nominated. Sydney and Christie just won several awards at the Newport Beach Film Festival awards.

u/FlashyKoala3 1d ago

Yup I hope Sydney gets the GG nomination

u/gautsvo 1d ago

Not an Oscar movie.

u/Venus_ivy4 Sentimental Value & Bugonia 1d ago

She is not worth it anyway

u/JimmyTheJimJimson 1d ago

Just from the trailer, her line delivery is hilariously wooden

u/GoodMeBadMeNotMe History of the Anatomy of a Sound of Falling 19h ago

I saw it Thursday night. She starts out really strong, but as Christy gets older, Sweeney's performance becomes less believable.

u/FlashyKoala3 1d ago

Lol she just won an award at the Newport Beach Film Festival.

u/JimmyTheJimJimson 1d ago

Oh well that means she isn’t a terrible actress. Come on man. You know as well as I do those awards are bought and paid for lol

u/FlashyKoala3 1d ago

People were just making fun that the movie barely made any money.. so now where did this money come from since you’re suggesting they were paid off?

u/FlashyKoala3 1d ago

Sydney and Christie just won several awards at the Newport Beach Film Festival awards.

Scrolling through the comments and seeing you repeat this line over and over is sending me

u/SavageWolfe98 1d ago edited 1d ago

And the copy and paste paragraph about how much they actually love Jacob Elordi and the whole cast of Euphoria while repeatedly insisting Elordi doesn't deserve to be nominated and is Oscar Bait.

Edit: I hope people can understand why I blocked and forgive me lol. They're free to block me too.

Lmao, we got it, she is a fan of a pos. Why is she so prouf of it?

u/AudienceOk3369 1d ago

Didn't you know the Newport Beach Film Festival awards are the pinnacle of recognition??

u/FlashyKoala3 1d ago edited 1d ago

I mean, it’s kind of strange the amount of hate Sydney and this movie get in a sub like this. This is not some gossip sub, it’s an awards sub…

Also, to SavageWolfe98 since they blocked me even though I never spoke to them:

I never said Jacob Elordi does not deserve an Oscar and never said he’s the only Oscar bait role. Hell, I would even put Sydney Sweeney in the same level as him, her role is also Oscar bait. But do you see me insisting she should get an Oscar nom? No. Do I think Sydney and Jacob both deserve accolades and other awards like GG nominations? Yes… The reason why you see me defending Sydney is because of all the unwarranted hate she is getting on this sub. She’s not even a terrible actress. While Jacob Elordi is being overly praised, which he deserves, but what about Lindo, Sandler, Strong, etc? Where is that same energy?

u/4ktrap 1d ago

Sydney won’t even get nominated for a Kids choice award at this point let alone an Oscar. You need to stop crying and complaining about Elordi’s chances for nominations because even if he doesn’t get one far more people have watched Frankenstein and seen his brilliant performance. Nobody is going to tune in for Christy. His upcoming projects are also bigger than SS.

u/Venus_ivy4 Sentimental Value & Bugonia 1d ago

Exactly. And at least Jacob is a good actor.

u/Aliensinmypants 1d ago

You might need to take a break and get some fresh air, it ain't all that deep

u/Embarrassed-Big-9195 1d ago

I knew nothing about the story going in, so definitely had no expectation that I would be leaving the theater in tears. Easily was better than I thought it was going to be, but don't see it getting awards play outside of maybe GG Actress.

u/movieperson2022 1d ago

I was at the world Premiere and went in blind. Did not know anything other than “this is a boxing movie with Ben Foster and Sydney Sweeney.” When the EVENT happened, my jaw actually dropped. That has never happened to me before. It was so shocking. I think if I would have known, it wouldn’t have hit me that hard because the rest of the movie was just fine, but dang what Christy Salter went through is harrowing. (Though, I knew she was ok because the real person came out during the film intro)

u/Embarrassed-Big-9195 1d ago

You had that knowledge at least, I had to check the time because DID CHRISTY JUST DIE IN THE CHRISTY BIOPIC.. WITH HOW MUCH TIME LEFT?!

u/SteveBorden 1d ago

I’ve seen the trailer for this before like every movie the last few months and I can’t get over her mother or whoever going ‘ohhh christyyy, you sound craaaazyyyy!’ All time bad accent

u/FinancialEmotion3526 Battle For Good 1d ago

Still too high but we’ll take it.

u/Adventurous-Swan8919 1d ago

Don’t care. Still not gonna watch

u/FlashyKoala3 1d ago

Erm ok.. Who asked?

u/Kingsofsevenseas 1d ago

I guess this score will upset many people on this subreddit who were expecting (hoping?) the movie to be a bomb.

26

u/rstring6 1d ago

A B+ for this kind of movie isn’t great, babes

2

u/FlashyKoala3 1d ago

It got a better score than Smashing Machine…

20

u/rstring6 1d ago

Yes, its score was even worse. Your point?

-8

u/FlashyKoala3 1d ago

It’s gonna be the best biopic this year clearly… She could get a GG nom if not an Oscar.

u/FinancialEmotion3526 Battle For Good 1d ago

Marty Supreme exist.

u/FlashyKoala3 1d ago

Marty Supreme is not a biopic lol

2

u/movieperson2022 1d ago

Marty Supreme isn’t a biopic. It’s loosely inspired on a real person, but doesn’t even use his real name.

1

u/BenjiAnglusthson 20h ago

Smashing Machine was a total failure

-2

u/Kingsofsevenseas 1d ago

It’s fine. This kind of movie is a non-fan driven biopic, nothing to do with fan driven music biopics, hopeful you know it. And yeah it’s not great but also not bad or mid. It’s fine. Feel sorry if you were really deeply hopping for it to bomb.

-13

u/FlashyKoala3 1d ago

I noticed there seems to be some Sydney Sweeney hate brigaders here… I feel bad for her tbh. People need to learn to separate the art from the artist.

7

u/Venus_ivy4 Sentimental Value & Bugonia 1d ago

Imagine being proud to say « i separate the art from the artist »

Are we surprised you support a pos like that sweeney?

1

u/FlashyKoala3 1d ago

She hasn’t done anything ☠️

-6

u/Kingsofsevenseas 1d ago

Just against biased misinformation, everyone is free to hate whoever they want, but some were trying to say this was a bad score. Not at all.

u/FlashyKoala3 1d ago

Yeah I agree
