The Inbetweeners Movie- British low budget

Budget: £3,500,000 (estimated)
Gross: £60,000,000 (Worldwide)

Release Date: 17th August 2011 (UK)

Country:

UK


This film had a small budget but it made a lot of profit, and was very popular for a low budget film, the reason why it might of been very popular was because before it was a movie, it was a very popular TV comedy series in the UK and everyone enjoyed watching the show, and when it was a movie it would have a lot of fans and this is what made it very popular.

The first weekend it was out it went over the budget by £10 million and already made a £10 million profit which is quick for a low budget film as well. But that was only in the UK and wasn't as popular in the US, only making £23,000. It also was shown in 470 different screenings in the UK and was only shown in 10 in the US. It has a wider UK audience than a US one, because it is a British film and more British people would understand it. Also, people tend to think that the UK have a different sense of humour so USA people might not understand the humour and not find it funny when British people will.

Fast and Furious 7- American box office

£125,000,000 (estimated)

Release date: 3 April 2015 (USA) 

This film is the 7th film of the franchise, 'Fast and Furious' and is the first and quickest to reach $1 million, with fast and furious 6 reaching up to $800,000,000 which was the closest film out of the franchise no including the latest film to reach $1 million. It reached it in a short space of less than 15 days, this is outstanding for most films.

This filmed reached it because of a lot of reasons but one of the main reasons would be the actors in it, specifically one. Paul Walker died halfway through making this film and the audience and fans of Paul Walker would want to watch him in one of his last films he is in, and this meant more people went to see it as well. but other people might disagree to this as well, because another star died recently, Robin Williams, and one of his last films was 'Night of the Museum' which wasn't as popular and got a grossing of $300,000,000 worldwide which is a lot less than 'Furious 7'.
