The Great Wall
With a threesome of unimpressive newcomers get in at the box office this weekend , the itinerary was clear for the holdover to remain on top .
Coming in first again isThe LEGO Batman Moviewith $ 34.2 million in its second weekend . That ’s only a 35.4 percent decrease from its debut , which is an excellent appreciation . It is n’t surprising the picture show has had overnice legs , give it was a hit with critics and generated enthusiastic give-and-take - of - mouth from audiences . LEGO Batmanis a fun clock time at the multiplex for viewers young and old , and its status as the only substantial family picture in Ithiel Town help as well . To date , the task has brought in $ 98.7 million domestically for its run .
In second isFifty Shades Darker , which made $ 20.9 million in its 2nd weekend . The Romance language drama is now up to $ 89.6 million Stateside and has received a great hike from foreign markets . Its world total presently stands at $ 276.8 million , well excel the film ’s $ 55 million output budget .
opening night in third isThe Great Wall(read our review ) , gross $ 18 million in its first three solar day . Despite the presence of lead humankind Matt Damon ( who is add up off a pair of commercial hits ) , the illusion / epic could not find much adhesive friction with American audiences . The most probable perpetrator is the reception , which was mostly negative . critic panned the movie by call it unstimulating , which obviously did not help its chance at the box post . The good news is thatThe Great Wallhas already made $ 262.6 million globally , hold a majority of that haulage in China . Still , it will be interesting to see how much of a profit this twist , since the production monetary value run up to $ 150 million .
The # 4 film isJohn taper : Chapter 2,which made $ 16.5 million in its second weekend . The natural action subsequence hold well , falling 45.8 percent from its debut . To engagement , Chapter 2has grossed $ 58.6 million in the States , already topping the domestic amount of its harbinger .
Rounding out the top five isFist Fight(read our review ) . The R - rated comedy made $ 12 million in its first weekend , flush it to appeal beyond its object hearing . Like its fellow new dismissal this hebdomad , Fist Fightwas not exactly a critical darling , and casual audiences were left with little reason to check it out . The film did have a relatively cheap production budget of " only " $ 25 million , so it should be able to recover those costs over the long running play . That say , with pastime this dispirited at the start , it ’s unlikely to move around thing around in the coming weeks .
In sixth isHidden Figures , which realise $ 7.1 million in its ninth weekend . The Best Picture rival has now made $ 142.5 million Stateside .
Splitcomes in 7th with $ 7 million . M. Night Shyamalan ’s latest thriller raised its domestic amount to $ 123.6 million .
The # 8 film isA Dog ’s Purpose . The play made $ 5.5 million in its quaternary weekend , put up its U.S. total to $ 50.6 million
Oscar frontrunnerLa La Landcomes in ninth . Earning $ 4.5 million , the musical now stands at $ 133.5 million domestically .
cap off the top 10 isA Cure for Wellness(read our limited review ) with just $ 4.2 million . The new horror / thriller movie from director Gore Verbinski could not draw in respectable crowds despite its moody , atmospherical marketing campaign and grand optic style . remedy for Wellnesswas plagued by mediocre reviews and perhaps a lack of knowingness . It entered theaters with petty fan fare , and the reaction did n’t facilitate its prospects .
[ NOTE : These are only weekend corner office estimates – based on Friday and Saturday ticket sale couple with line up expectations for Sunday . Official weekend box bureau effect will be released on Monday , February 20 – at which time we ’ll update this Charles William Post with any change . ]
