Georgia Rule low weekend earnings

by Arieanna Schweber on May 13th, 2007

So far, Georgia Rule is just not pulling in the box office figures it should.

Granted, Georgia Rule is going up against the likes of Spiderman 3, but still. Very sucky. It’s got to be one of the best-cast Lindsay Lohan movies.

Weekend estimates at box office:

The reviews are not hot either - thankfully, though, the critics are all raving about how great Lindsay was!

AP Movie Critic: "Georgia Rule" feels like an even greater failure because its aspirations were so high. It has such star power, it’s trying so hard to be poignant and meaningful, to say something about the power of family and redemption. But in the end, it’s just another concoction of unbelievable characters doing unbelievable things, and telling us nothing we haven’t heard before.
New York Post: I didn’t laugh once at the dismal jokes - Rachel is "easy to find. Just listen for a scream," says her mother in the opening minutes, a remarkably tasteless line for a movie that will turn on a question of rape. I expected merely to be bored, not repulsed. Somebody stick a bar of soap in Garry Marshall’s mouth.
