actually not really. The 5.1M figure is over a 5 day festival period. The actual weekend (Sat and Sun) is around 1.5m, around 30% less than DOFP.

>X-Men: Apocalypse disappoints, as expected, and misses the Top 5 in its debut weekend. Based on estimates, it'll come in nearly 30% below Days of Futures Past, however, it may have opened slightly higher than First Class which opened to ¥158 million in 2011. The new films are only earning ~60% of the original trilogy, but at least they're remaining somewhat consistent. Apocalypse is likely to miss the ¥1 billion milestone, though, and should finish around ¥800 million ($7/8 million). "
Still $540m is great, like some people act as if it did less than 200m WW and made a huge loss
