Brags about being top spot after all those other movies have been out for weeks/month now, lol.
You say “(majority Domestic)” as if that’s bad. Studios get most of their money back from domestic box office. They get just 25% back (or less) when the movie sells in China and other places
shareFYI :
“Reagan” is also looking at a healthy hold in its sophomore outing, with rivals projecting a 33% drop and $5.1 million gross for its second frame. The Dennis Quaid-starring biopic will reach $20 million domestic on Monday or Tuesday. It was a $25 million production.“

I think it's considered a success, because nobody thought this movie would be make 4 or 5 million much less get a theatrical release.
And I'll also add, outside the political polarizing environment, Reagan isn't as sexy Nixon or JFK.
Reagan is most popular for the two landslide elections and Iran-Contra.
People who don't like Reagan would add, Aids and the Crack epidemic.
People on the right who like Reagan would add, the Soviet Empire defeat.
But I think what's he most famous for was the two elections and Iran-Contra.
That isn't resigning or being assassinated. Both of which are obviously now in 2024, shocking.
Also, the reviews were terrible.
From what I read, the budget was 20-25 million.
