It only has a budget of around $10,000,000. So it probably only needs around 20-30 million to make a profit.

Yes let’s pray it hits $400M Here’s what i said earlier (Caps are excitement!!!) MONKEY MAN MATH MONKEY MAN (Dev Patel) = ENTER THE DRAGON (Bruce Lee) BLOODSPORT (Van Damme) + ROCKY & RAMBO (Sly) + JOHN WICK (Keanu) + EQUALIZER (Denzel)!!!!! Super must watch - I predict MONKEY MAN 2 - it’s the next iconic series for generations to come!!! Just like those I mentioned

As someone who has always love film, and recently in the past 2 years I've been working behind the scenes (nothing too crazy) I've been inspired to direct my own short films. I have bought myself a rebel T7 camera so I can at least start somewhere, and every time I try to film it always goes wrong, and seeing Dev Patel direct, write, produce, AND act in his film, it has inspired me much more to always push through and just wing it because you'll never know what can happen. Especially after watching the film in the theaters, I came out with tears not only because of how great this film was, but how Dev Patel really blew it out of the waters even though he went through complications. So this is an amazing motivator not only to me, but many other inspiring directors or actors.
