Surviving a crash, surrounded by hungry wolves in a hard, cold. Sounds almost like a metaphor for what a lot of movies at the box office is experiencing in recent times, but was the subject of the latest offering from Liam Neeson, who also happened to be the number one movie in theaters this weekend .
The Grey Neeson made a solid debut with $ 20 million. That's a step backward for director Joe Carnahan, whose last film, 2010 The A-Team (also starring Liam Neeson) opened at $ 25 million. Still, it's a respectable opening for a movie in January with nothing to do but Liam Steel prominent eyes calling angry audiences in the trailer, which promises. Some good action and excitement
Stephanie Plum, which was lovely novels consumers of cheese, pasta in mystery for years, finally reached the big screen this weekend in the form of Katherine Heigl in One for the money. With something of a built-in fan in the audience might have been some hope for a solid weekend, but after a beating at the hands of critics and some fans settled for only $ 11 million and ranked number three. His reported $ 42 million budget seems a little high for something so simple, but even more remarkable that makes the film a jolt of profitability, which could mean the end of the franchise before it even had time to start.
Sam Worthington career headlining continued success to fail this weekend. After three rolls of high visibility and success in dairy cows Terminator Salvation, Avatar and Clash of the Titans (2010), Worthington has made two films in wide release failed to open above $ 10 million. Man on a ledge, which was pushed by critics to go ahead and jump, took a miserable place fifth with only $ 8 million.
After nearly three months in the small to medium release, The Descendants of George Clooney finally opened wide (an expansion conveniently arranged to follow the announcement of Oscar nominations. The film is already something of a financial success that has earned $ 51 million during his long career small release, but showing in 2000 theaters only added another $ 6 million this weekend. That's $ 1 million less than it made its second weekend out in November when he was in only 390 theaters. I guess all the Oscar nominations are not the salary of gold waiting for.
