Jessica Chastain Gun-Control Stinker "Miss Sloane" Opens to Numbers That Would Make Even the Lady Ghostbusters Laugh

I don't get Jessica Chastain. Hollywood seems to have decided that a lack of expressiveness in an actress reads "smart" or something.

At any rate, her movie, which I'm sure is wretched, got punished at the box office by a public that's tired of all their crap.

Miss Sloane, the gun control thriller starring Jessica Chastain, over the weekend posted one of the worst performances of the past 35 years for a movie in wide release.
The movie pulled in $1,167 on average at the 1,648 theaters across the country it was shown in. It made $1,922,300, meaning it was the 11th-highest grossing movie in the country. It is number 79 on Box Office Mojo’s list of Worst Opening Weekend by Per-Theater Average since 1982.

That means Miss Sloane earned less money per theater than Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, Shaun the Sheep Movie, Lawnmower Man 2: Beyond Cyberspace, and Gigli.
