This past weekend showed us mainly two things: Snow White doesn’t seem like it will make a recovery, and people really seem to like Jason Statham. We also have a faith-based film doing really well and a couple of horror films not leaving a mark. Here are your box office results for this past weekend.
1. A Working Man landed at number 1 bringing in 15.2 million dollars. Statham has made the same type of movie several times. He usually has a different career in each movie and ends up beating up evil people. Still, people show up to see his movies, so why mess with the formula?
2. Snow White pulled in 14.2 million dollars in its second weekend. This is a 66 percent drop-off after week one and with another family film in Minecraft releasing next week it doesn’t seem like Snow White will have legs to make up its budget.
3. The Chosen: Last Supper made 11.4 million dollars. The Chosen is a television series that has received massive acclaim among fans and critics alike. Fans ran to the theatres to see this Fathom event and 11 million dollars is a great take.
4. The Woman in the Yard took in 9.4 million dollars. Blumhouse is known for having cheap budgets so this one will likely make its money back despite poor reviews from critics and audiences.
5. Death of a Unicorn came in 5th place bringing in 6.7 million dollars. The Paul Rudd and Jenna Ortega-led film made a modest amount of money and is said to be a fun time overall.
Tune in next week to see how Minecraft and the rest of the box office turn out.
