#BOXOFFICE: “HALLOWEEN ENDS” HAS A STRONG START

HALLOWEEN ENDS nabs the #1 spot at the Box Office in its opening weekend for Universal Pictures, taking $43.4 million from 3,901 theatres. Despite reviews being less than stellar at 39% on the Tomatometer, this conclusion to David Gordon Green‘s Trilogy still has that appeal to Moviegoers. Best opening ever for the Halloween Franchise though, still goes to 2018’s Halloween which opened with $76 million in North America.

In second is SMILE, dethroned after a two week reign with $12 million from 3,612 theatres, a total $70 million over three weekends for Paramount Pictures.

Third goes to LYLE, LYLE CROCODILE with $7.2 million from 4,350 theatres for Sony Pictures. Over two weekends it has grossed $22.6 million.

Fourth is THE WOMAN KING with $3.7 million, a total $56 million over five weekends for Sony PIctures.

At the bottom of the Top Five is AMSTERDAM with $2.9 million, a two week tally of $12 million for 20th Century Studios.
