Liam Neeson's The Mongoose opens to about $464k: a Taken-era low
By Fuzzy Mushroom · Published
The Mongoose, Liam Neeson's latest chase thriller, opened to about $464,000 from 1,014 North American cinemas over the Halloween weekend, a per-screen average under $460. Slashfilm and Screen Rant both flag it as a career box-office low for a wide Neeson action release, after a thin run of theatrical flops that still tend to find life later on streaming.
Is the theatrical Taken formula finally done, or do the Punters only want these on the sofa now?
