As the weekend comes to a close, it’s safe to say Marvel’s newest film, Eternals, has dominated the box office. Despite the fact that the film received mixed reactions from critics, earning a disappointing 48% on Rotten Tomatoes after 295 reviews, the movie has been a much bigger hit with fans. Currently, the movie is up on the review site with an 81% audience score after 2,500+ reviews. ComicBook.com gave the movie a 4 out of 5, saying it “will likely be one of the more divisive films in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.” The movie may not have gotten the best reviews, but that didn’t stop it from making money this weekend. Eternals opened to $71 million, which was less than Black Widow ($80.3 million) and Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings ($75.5 million), but still impressive by pandemic standards. Earlier today, Marvel Studios took to social media to celebrate Eternals being #1 in the world.
