Despite entering an already weak box office; Indiana Jones And The Dial Of Destiny failed to make a huge mark on the weekend box office.

According to Box Office Mojo, The movie marks another disappointment for Disney; who is now set to lose a cumulative $1 Billion on its box office losses this year. Dial Of Destiny opened to $60 Million at the Box Office this weekend; which made it the Number One movie at the box office. However, if you compare that to Kingdom Of The Crystal Skull; which made nearly twice that with $126 Million on its opening weekend. It’s clear that interest in a fifth Indiana Jones simply wasn’t there. This could be for a variety of factors; but a lack of marketing and a lack of overall interest in the franchise certainly doesn’t help.

In our review of the movie, reviewer Hunter Bolding said:

Indiana Jones And The Dial Of Destiny Box Office

If you like Indiana Jones movies and globe-trotting adventures, you’re going to like this one. There are no embarrassing set-pieces with digitized monkeys; they even make a little joke about the ‘nuke the fridge’ bit. Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny has a perfect title. It’s about the titular destiny, but it’s also about the call of destiny that comes for all of us. It argues that everyone is in the place they’re supposed to be because of the passage of time. It’s beautiful.

James Mangold crafts some beautiful visuals to go along with it. It might be the most colorful and vibrant Indiana Jones movie since Temple of Doom. It’s a superb directing job to step in for Steven Spielberg and give us an Indiana Jones movie that fits in with the rest of the series. It might be missing some of that heart and soul of the first three films, but Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny is still well worth a watch.

The Rest Of The Box Office

Despite Indiana Jones And The Dial Of Destiny and its Box Office underperforming, there were other solid performers a the Box Office. Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse came in second place with $11.5 Million; with the movie now totalling $339.8 Million domestically and $607 Million internationally. It continues to be one of the best-performing movies of the year. Elemental came in third place with $11.3 Million. No Hard Feelings maintained its box office with $7.5M in the fourth-place spot. Finally, Transformers: Rise of the Beasts made $7 Million in the 5th place spot.

The Flash continues to underperform, and dropped to the 8th place spot with a 67% drop over the previous week with only $5 Million.

Next week sees the release of both Insidious: The Red Door and Joy Ride. It’ll be interesting to see how both movies do at the box office this coming weekend.
