A film about U.S. First Lady Melania Trump has been mocked by critics, but ticket sales are beating expectations, Variety reports.

The documentary "Melania" had grossed over $7 million (£5.1 million) since its premiere on Friday, according to Variety, which called it a "tremendous start" for a documentary.

The film has received poor reviews, and was described by The Guardian's critics as "an endless hell".

Amazon paid around SEK 380 million just for the rights to make the documentary, which follows Melania Trump during the 20 days leading up to Donald Trump's presidential inauguration in January 2025.

The film is director Brett Ratner's first since several women accused him of sexual harassment in 2017.
