The film has earned 90% from the critics on an aggregate site. The early reviews are also quite positive, and it will help the film succeed at the box office eventually. Pattinson is all over this year, with two successful movies already under his belt. Like The Drama, it is also an A24 movie.
Primetime’s opening weekend update
The Robert Pattinson thriller is expected to land at #3 in the box office rankings in North America.

It is expected to be on par with The Heart of the Beast’s debut.

Tracking to recover more than its production cost in its domestic debut weekend
The report further revealed that it was made on a low budget, and that the budget was $15 million since Primetime is tracking to earn $17 million to $20 million in its opening weekend in North America. Therefore, if the Robert Pattinson starrer lands in this projected range, it will not only recover its production cost but also earn $2 million-$5 million more.
Since it is a low-budget film, it is well-positioned to become a box-office hit. Based on the industry’s 2.5x rule, it needs only $38 million to break even and become profitable. Directed by Lance Oppenheim in his narrative feature film debut, the film follows the production of the reality television series To Catch a Predator. Robert Pattinson-led Primetime will be released on September 25.
