Since hitting it big with ID4 Will Smith's averaged a $40m opening weekend with his 17 movies - and that's not even inflation adjusted (or accounting for several Wednesday openers)...
So not (or barely) hitting $20m is quite a deal...
Only one of his post-ID4 R-rated releases (BAD BOYS II) opened north of $21m.
Dude, c'mon. One out of three R-rated mocies he produced in total.
The other two are Enemy of the State and Ali.
Enemy of the State adjusts to $35.4 million in its opening. But even if you neglect the adjusment - Ali opened on a Tuesday and it opened to $10+ million on its first day, a number that adjusts to $15 million today.
So, yeah, there is a very very big difference between those films and Focus.
