A general rule of thumb is a movie needs to make back double its budget to recoup after-filming costs, like advertising, ect to start turning a profit. A $363 million return on a $200 million flick is not a good return.

The rule of thumb does not take into account movies going to stream, so may not be as applicable these days.
