The question of how much impact a critic's appraisal of a film has on its box office, and where it ends up in the [Box Office Top 10](Box_Office_Top_10), is a long and vexed one.
In [Mark Kermode](Mark_Kermode)'s view, the impact is none. Conclusive proof of this was the week that [The Assassination Of Jesse James By The Coward Robert Ford](The_Assassination_Of_Jesse_James_By_The_Coward_Robert_Ford) only went in at number 9 whereas [Fred Claus](Fred_Claus) and [Hitman (without Her)](Hitman_(without_Her)) went in at 1 and 2 respectively.
