‘Sound Of Freedom’ Tops A Staggering $40 Million During Opening Week Despite Media Opposition
Taking a life of its own, SOUND OF FREEDOM tops the box office in the first week of its release, defeating Indiana Jones.
‘Sound of Freedom has taken on a life of its own. We’re getting messages from all over the country telling us about packed theatres, sold-out theatres, and spontaneous standing ovations for the film in numerous locations. Seeing this film has become a must thanks to incredible word-of-mouth,’ said Brandon Purdie, head of theatrical distribution at Angel Studios.
Sound of Freedom is expected to finish the weekend in third place despite the relentless, frantic efforts made by the atheist media to keep people from watching it. The film has already made more than $40 million in ticket sales, more than tripling its production budget.
The show’s amazing Fourth of July debut has seen a tremendous increase in ticket sales. The wicked multi-billion dollar child sex trafficking industry, of which the United States is its greatest consumer, is now coming to the attention of the movie-going public, as nearly 4 million advance tickets had been sold online as of Monday morning.
“As with our July 4th numbers, today’s numbers exceed our expectations, and we’re going to continue this momentum,” said Brandon Purdie, head of theatrical distribution at Angel Studios.
The film is based on the real-life story of Tim Ballard, a former government agent, who left his position to save a little girl from sex traffickers in the jungles of Colombia. Tim ultimately prevented 123 individuals, 55 of them were children, from dying on one mission.
Since then, Ballard and Operation Underground Railroad, his organization, have saved thousands of kids.

The movie has received significant word-of-mouth recommendations from locals around the country, despite attempts by major media outlets to undermine it.
Sound of Freedom enjoys an A+ rating from CinemaScore, and a 76/99 audience rating at Rotten Tomatoes, beating out Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny which received just 69/88 score.
“We’re deeply grateful to AMC, Cinemark, Regal, and all our theater partners – and their hard-working theatre staff members – for working with us to accommodate the surging demand for this film and having the courage to release Sound of Freedom during the busiest movie season of the year,” noted Angel Studios distribution executive Purdie.
