Christopher Nolan’s latest project Dunkirk is looking to reach an astounding $51 million since its release couple days ago.

Previously, most sources predicted that Dunkirk will get from around $30 to $40 million in its box office Weekend. However, by Friday, the film cashed in $19.8 million and the estimate grew by a big margin. It looks like the film will hit around $51 million which will be $4 million more than his previous film Interstellar which reached $47 million with a budget higher than $15 million.

The overall review ratings of the film slightly dropped as the Rotten Tomatoes rating dropped b 4% and Metacritic by 2%, however, it does not seem to have damaged the buzz going around the film fanatics. The film still holds a rating over 90% on Rotten Tomatoes and Metacritic and mere criticisms do not seem to have damaged the reputation of the film.
