Original expectations had this movie making between $30 and $38 million. So for it to hit the $40 mark domestically is a big "omg, don't sleep on this movie" type of thing. You will see a lot more coverage for it next week with Hollywood sites writing click-bait articles examining WHY the movie did better than expected.

The international release is slightly disappointing. For Power Rangers to be so huge globally in terms of being viewed in hundreds of other countries, to work in only $18 million internationally, or less than what the movie did here in the US on Saturday, leaves me a bit wary.

Ideally, you'd want the movie to break even and not be a "loss" in terms of financials for Lionsgate and Saban Brands. At the same time, when the movie does better than expected (ie: "it didn't flop as much as we thought!"), the argument can then be made that this movie is setting up the next movie which will be bigger, badder, and make more money.

So who knows, really. Depends on what Saban and Lionsgate want to do.
