The 88th Annual Academy Awards, hosted by Chris Rock, air Sunday, February 28, at 7 pm EST. Eight films have been nominated in this year’s coveted Best Picture category: The Big Short, Bridge of Spies, Brooklyn, Mad Max: Fury Road, The Martian, The Revenant, Room, and Spotlight.

While critically acclaimed, not all of these films were big successes at the box office. The Revenant, for example, made more than Brooklyn, Room, Bridge of Spies, and Spotlight combined.

Find out how much each film made both in the U.S. and abroad, according to Box Office Mojo, below.
