Box office data has come in for the first five days since "Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One" debuted to moviegoers.
The Christopher McQuarrie-directed film bringing actor Tom Cruise back as spy Ethan Hunt for the seventh time saw a global box office gross of $235 million in the five-day time span from July 12 to Sunday, according to data from IMDb site Box Office Mojo. That figure includes roughly $80 million that reportedly came from domestic ticket sales and $155 million from international.
Paramount Pictures had forecast ahead of its release that "Dead Reckoning Part One" would bring in at least $250 million in five days.
Domestically, the total amount that "Dead Reckoning Part One" made during its opening July 14-16 weekend was an estimated $56.2 million, Box Office Mojo found. Data from the site indicated the spy movie did the best out of those three days on Saturday, generating an estimated $21.4 million in the U.S. and Canada.
