Never Released In The USA??


I just checked the-numbers.com to see how much this movie made:

Theatrical Performance

Domestic Box Office $0
International Box Office $18,400,000

Home Market Performance
Domestic DVD Sales: $8,146,301

Production Budget $35,000,000


So it never got released in the USA? With Penelope Cruz and Salma Hayek in their first movie together? 18 million for the international box office isn't horrible, I would have guess the movie would have made that much in the US as well. And if so, the movie would have broken even.

I can't figure out why this movie was not released in the US. Wikipedia says:

The film earned mostly mixed reviews, with a 62% out of 15 reviews on Rotten Tomatoes.


So it wasn't as if this was some awful movie that didn't warrant even a limited release is the US market... ?????????????????

hot star doesn't produce much than a talent star I guess.

It was probably done intentionally, not to release it in the US.
