Collider wrote: Audiences couldn't help but fall in love with Baz Luhrmann's maximalist biopic. Much like The King of Rock and Rock himself, director Baz Luhrmann’s Elvis is still making noise well past its prime. The second-biggest music biopic of all time (behind Bohemian Rhapsody) passed the $250 million mark at the global box office in its seventh week of release, with a VOD debut looming.
Elvis added $4.5 million this weekend from 70 markets, pushing its overseas gross to $114,700,000 million. Domestically, the film made $3.7 million this weekend, taking its total to $136,516,741 million. Globally the movie grossed US$251,216,741.
