“The monkey” begins strong, “Captain America” ​​is still No. 1

Horror comedy sees him in “The Monkey” and she is making a strong weekend, although it will take silver at the box office behind “Captain America: Brave New World”, is still at the top of the plans but faces a great stumbling in it. The end of the second week.

“The Monkey”, cut to an estimated $ 5.8 million from 3200 theaters via Friday tests and inspection. This puts it on the right track in the second largest weeon weeon, as it only left the director Osjoud People horror in The Banner, “Longlegs” last summer. The reviews were positive for this follow -up, although the fans were mixed with Tickeketbuyer for the Cinematic Siq. Horror films are perverted in that opinion though; Moreover, “Longlegs” achieved the same degree of medium before it came out a healthy double 3.31X on the opening weekend.

Even taking into account only this opening weekend, the “The Monkey” is in a great position. With a production budget of about $ 10 million, the film is moved to make a great profit in theaters. The next Perkins and Nion movie, “Keeper”, is already hit by theaters in October. “The Monkey” is a more comic turn for Berkins, as it adapts to the story of Stephen King from two brothers (Theo James) who see everyone around them starting death at the hands of a demonic game.

Even with the $ 100 million champion weekend during the President’s Day holiday, “Captain America: Brave New World” was ready to announce theatrical success. Through reviews that tend negatively and degree of “B-” Cinema Cinematic Universe, all the eyes were on this second frame to see how comic air conditioning will overcome.

The revival of “Captain America” ​​added another $ 7.2 million on Friday. This places on the right track to avoid breaking the MCU record, a decrease of 78 % that “The Marvels” obtained in November 2023. But it seems that “World New World” is likely to hold similarly to “Ant-Man and The Wasp: Quantumania, Quantumania 2023 , “It was also opened at the weekend of the presidents before Its decrease of 70 % on the second picnic. “Quantumania” has become a bomb, unable to double the opening weekends of $ 120 million. It will be disappointed if a “brave new world” suffers from a similar and sharp decrease.

Sony for “Paddington in Peru” is third, with another $ 1.5 million on Friday and expected 6.5 million dollars (a decrease of 48 %) on the second weekend. The production of study studies has an external bullet represented by passing a local total of $ 25 million during the first 10 days of its release. This revolves around “Badtington 2”, who got the same amount during the second weekend in 2017.

“Dog Man” in Universal is fourth after getting $ 1.3 million on Friday. Caper Dreamworks Animation Caper is looking for $ 5.7 million for the fourth weekend, which would constitute a decrease of 41 %. The local total should reach $ 78 million until Sunday.

Fifth place again went to the Chinese movie “Ne Zha 2”, where competitors expect a decrease of 63 % compared to $ 2.8 million on the weekend. Of course, the epic has already crossed $ 1.6 billion in its country of origin, and has become the best moving movie ever and ranked first in the global box office ever. So the total number of the United States is not even cherries on top – perhaps peanuts at best.

Lionsgate was opened outside the top five, and finally in the launch of the Zachary Levi “The Unbreakable Boy”, after nearly three years from the date of its launch in the first place. The Long Smile Film looks forward to making $ 2.4 million this weekend through 1,687 places.
