Will Smith versus Will Smith in 'Gemini Man' Skydance and ParamountAng Lee and Will Smith’s Gemini Man, an ambitious, original but poorly reviewed sci-fi flick, opened with just $20.5 million in domestic box office this weekend. And yes, if you’re someone who wants to experience something new and different at the movies, Gemini Man is worth it. Like The Walk in IMAX, the story behind Gemini Man was that you shouldn’t bother if you can’t/won’t see it as intended. The tragedy is that, like Matthew McConaughey and Anne Hathaway’s Serenity, the bells and whistles of Gemini Man may have both sabotaged the movie and jeopardized the industry. When the few of those get thrown off by ridiculous plots (Serenity) or divisive visuals (Gemini Man), those moviegoers are likely to just stay home next time.
