The Hobbit desolation of smaug was given a budget of $225 million much smaller than the previous film in the series, an unexpected journey, who's budget came to $315 million. This being said the hobbit desolation of smaug was commercially successful, on the opening weekend it made back $73,645,197 the 56th most
successful opening in film and only 14 places behind it's predecessor an unexpected journey (that came in at 42).
Since this time the film has grossed $953 million meaning it made just over 4 times it's budget. For a film to be commercially acclaimed it must make back at least 2 1/2 times it's budget.
