Matt Damon&`&s &`&The Great Wall&`& Crumbles With $21M U.S. Debut
Acclaimed Chinese filmmaker Zhang Yimou&`&s The Great Wall, starring Matt Damon, bombed in its U.S. debut over the long Presidents Day weekend with an estimated $21 million from 3,325 theaters, including a three-day tally of $18.1 million.

That&`&s a poor start considering the movie&`&s $150 million production budget. Revised estimates for the holiday weekend will be released Monday morning, while final numbers won&`&t be ready until Tuesday. In any case, the first Presidents Day weekend of Donald Trump&`&s tenure in the White House turned out to be something of a bust at the box office.

None of the new offerings — Great Wall, New Line&`&s comedy Fist Fight and New Regency/Fox&`&s psychological thriller A Cure for Wellness — were able to topple holdovers The Lego Batman Movie and Fifty Shades Darker.
