The source used for "box office bomb" doesn't say that. In fact it says the movie has grossed (domestically) more than three times the budget listed in the infobox. If there aren't any objections, I'm going to remove the "box office bomb" descriptor. IvoShandor (talk) 11:27, 10 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
That same source says it grossed over $14 million its opening weekend. Someone may want to take a more thorough look at the facts and citations in this article. I just happened to be reading it because I just saw the movie and noticed the NPOV issues but it seems there are further issues to be addressed. IvoShandor (talk) 11:33, 10 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
In the introduction, this movie is characterized without citation as "a critical and commercial failure" on the basis that its box office returns were less than its budget. However, this Deadline Hollywood piece mentions that "MGM... rushed Hot Tub 2 out to the home market, a brilliant move yielding a digital haul that was 3 times the film’s domestic B.O." If accurate, box office plus digital then comes out to around $49 million; I don't know enough about the movie business to say for sure but that seems OK.
