I think it's actually expected to break $100 million, so it'll likely end up with a final box-office a bit higher. Taking physical sales into account, this'll be a VERY profitable movie when all is said and done.
I know you didn't ask for a review and I'll probably get flak for this, but I only found it okay/good, nothing great. The pacing, editing, and music in the first third are a bit poor and feel unnatural somehow. Caviezel is overly melodramatic in several scenes. The kids are surprisingly good actors, though, and the over-arching story is quite interesting.
You should. I went and saw it (in a "deep blue" area) and the theater was fucking packed. Just getting tickets was a massive pain, often sold out days in advance. I don't think they turned off the AC, but it definitely could not handle the amount of people in that room.
I would not be surprised at all if that 85 million was the media doing their best to low-ball and downplay how successful it is.
I feel like it being packed might actually be the result of it being in a deep blue area. Organic communication among the dissident factions might inspire people to come out from shelter and just see the movie.

I believe that is just domestic too, it hasn't been released internationally yet.
Same, but I did watch it in theatres.

More like $85 million despite local theater managers doing everything possible (within the realm of plausible deniability) to tank it.
