- The espionage action-comedy only saw $6.5 million in ticket sales from 3,605 North American venues across opening day and preview screenings;
- It's supposed the be the first part of a franchise;
- “Argylle” has garnered mostly negative reviews, but what’s even worse is audiences aren’t finding much to like either. Research firm Cinema Score issued a severe “C+” grade after surveying early ticket buyers;
- Of course, $200 million isn’t exactly a huge burden for Apple, which topped $3 trillion in market cap last summer.
