New Rob Reiner Movie Trashing Christians Crashes At Box Office, Makes Less Than $50k At Box Office

Rob Reiner is known for being one of the most vocal and critical figures on social media, particularly when it comes to the current political climate in America. Despite his presidency, Joe Biden rarely receives praise from Reiner, who instead dedicates most of his time to writing posts on X, where he heavily criticizes conservatives and the GOP frontrunner, Donald Trump.

It seems that Reiner’s experiences during the former president’s administration have deeply affected him, to the point where he appears to have never fully recovered. Known for his role as “Meathead” on All in the Family, a character who clashed with protagonist Archie Bunker, Reiner’s public persona often mirrors this confrontational style.

The former actor has spent the last thirty-plus years involved in filmmaking, with some of his works earning notoriety as some of the worst in cinema history. The 1994 film “North,” directed by Reiner, garnered significant negative attention, with renowned critic Roger Ebert expressing vehement disdain for it.

Ebert famously wrote: “I hated this movie. Hated hated hated hated hated this movie. Hated it. Hated every simpering stupid vacant audience-insulting moment of it. Hated the sensibility that thought anyone would like it. Hated the implied insult to the audience by its belief that anyone would be entertained by it.”

Ebert also singled out Reiner, stating: “North” is a bad film – one of the worst movies ever made. But it is not by a bad filmmaker, and must represent some sort of lapse from which Reiner will recover – possibly sooner than I will.” Ebert, who passed away in 2013, likely couldn’t have foreseen that things wouldn’t improve for Reiner after “North.”

Reiner has had only two notable hits since “North,” with the last being 2007’s “The Bucket List.” Out of about a dozen films, only two achieved minor box office success. However, Reiner’s latest release marks a new low. His documentary-style film, “God & Country: The Rise of Christian Nationalism,” aimed at critiquing white Christians, not only flopped at the box office but also humiliated the filmmaker.

The film screened in 85 theaters nationwide but garnered minimal attention despite heavy promotion on leftist networks and social media. With a meager earning of $38,415 over four days, the film averaged only $451 per theater, indicating a remarkably low turnout. Breitbart reported that it brought in approximately $112 per day, suggesting an audience of around ten people per showing.

Despite Reiner’s prolonged string of failures and his focus on promoting Biden while criticizing conservatives, he continues to find opportunities in filmmaking. However, one may wonder how long this trend will persist. While being a leftist seemingly allows for failing upward, common sense should eventually prevail. Perhaps this lackluster movie will mark the end of Reiner’s career, unless you encounter him on X, where his passionate rants are hard to miss. It might be wise to steer clear of any project involving Reiner unless he’s referred to as “Meathead.”
