Not surprisingly, "Bad Boys For Life" dominated the Super Bowl weekend and topped the charts for a third consecutive weekend. Meanwhile, new releases "Gretel & Hansel" and "The Rhythm Section" struggled in their opening weekends, with the latter delivering a record worst debut.
Find out more about the weekend box-office after the jump.
Sony's "Bad Boys For Life" is only a couple of million short of becoming the highest global release in the "Bad Boys" franchise. The film added another $17.6 million domestically for a total of $148 million, which is already a franchise-high gross, topping the second film's $138.6 million. Overseas it raked in another $30.8 million for an international cume of $142.7 million. Adding it all up, the film has grossed a total of $271 million worldwide, which is only $2 million short of "Bad Boys 2".
The WWI epic "1917" is still holding strong in second place with $9.6 million, which brings its domestic total to $119.2 million. Overseas, the film raked in $20.9 million, and its international tally is now at $129.8 million.
The $175 million flop "Dolittle" starring Robert Downey Jr. is trying to salvage its rough start and so far it's not doing bad. The film finished the weekend in third place with $7.7 million, dropping just 36.9%. The film has grossed $55.2 million domestically after three weekends. It also added another $17.7 million internationally for an overseas total of $71.4. It has not yet been released in China, which may or may not save the day for Universal, and upcoming releases include Japan, Russia, and the U.K.
The first new release, the fairy tale fantasy horror film "Gretel & Hansel" opened in fourth place with $6 million from 3,007 theaters, which is just a hair below expectations, and also not a very good performance. It's not really a disaster, either, as the film only cost $5 million to produce. But, with mixed reviews from critics (56% on Rotten Tomatoes and 64 on Metacritic), and a very negative reception from moviegoers (17% Audience Score on Rotten Tomatoes and a "C-" from CinemaScore's opening day polls), the film will probably drop heavily in its second weekend.
The Top 5 is rounded out by Guy Ritchie's "The Gentlemen" with $6 million. As you can see, the race is pretty close between fourth, fifth and sixth place, and the order might change when the final results come in. The gangster filck dropped 44% this weekend and its domestic total has reached $20.4 million after 10 days. Overseas, the film still expanding, and it raked in $4 million over the weekend, which brings its international cume to $28 million.
The other new release, Paramount's action thriller "The Rhythm Section" starring Blake Lively, ended up nearly missing the Top 10. The film's initial projections were low enough, but it somehow managed to sink even lower, finishing the weekend with a catastrophic $2.8 million from 3,049 locations against a $50 million budget. This is officially the worst opening ever for a film released in over 3,000 theaters. Both the critical and audience reception have been poor. The film scored a 33% on Rotten Tomatoes and a 44 on Metacritic. Rotten also reported a low 43% Audience Score, and the film received a "C+" grade from CinemaScore's polls.
