That's a 2.55x weekend multiplier, which to be fair is larger than the likes of If I Stay, Paper Towns and The Fault in Our Stars. The Amandla Stenberg/Nick Robinson kid-targeted romance earned mixed-negative reviews but played well enough to its target demographic. It played 82% female, 52% under-25, 74% under 25 and 82% under 35-years old while earning an A- from CinemaScore. The $48m debut of The Fault in Our Stars, even acknowledging its lightning-in-a-bottle variables, really does feel like a lifetime ago. That's about what the previous films earned on their first days.
