It was like the end of the 80s at the box office. A Rehabilitation of Pet Sematary (which looked more like a remake) and a superhero movie with more than a few leading marks to Big together earn more than $ 78 million. Can they finally match the $ 172 million that these films made? Or could Shazam! reach this number alone?

DC Shazam! led the box office with $ 53.45 million this weekend, in addition to the $ 3.3 million he earned in screenings in preview. It was higher than the projections. Even though it's the lowest opening of DC Extended Universe, it's like offering Ant-Man the chance to not be up to Captain America ] or Iron Man . Shazam! is a different beast from the DCEU, which is mostly darker, and the critics seem to dig. Shazam! scored 91% on the tomatometer, just under 92% of Wonder Woman. This is also superior to two of Christopher Nolan Batman's movies – Batman Begins and The Dark Knight Rises – which are a world apart from the current crop of DC.
Shazam! currently owns the ninth best opening weekend ever recorded in April; April 26, we will return to the 10th for the opening of Avengers: Endgame . Fast and Furious ($ 155 million) and 2010 The shock of the titans ($ 163.2 million) is among the 10 films that recorded the largest openings in the world. April of all time. ). The top two multiples of the top 10 of April were won by A Quiet Place (3.74 times its opening weekend) and by 2016 The Book of the Jungle (3.52). Their tomometer scores were both 95%. Word of mouth seems to be solid for Shazam! which augurs well for its future. Hellboy R-rated is unlikely to reach the main audience of the hit, and if he manages to maintain a drop of less than 45%, he should be on track to win at least $ 172 million and potentially more than winning the $ 180 million of the original Ant-Man .

The Best of Enemies opened with $ 4.5 million on 1,705 movie theaters, representing the seventh lowest average per theater of STX Entertainment. The critics were mixed in the movie – it has a Tomatometer score of 52% – and audiences have not shown themselves in impressive numbers. STX had a better month in January with its acquisition by Weinstein Co., The Upside which remains one of the five most profitable films of the year with $ 107 million. It was the second best tally (behind Bad Moms ) for the studio in nearly four years of history.
The rest of the top 10 and beyond: Stephen King continues to attract crowds, but can Seminar The original?

A bit of intelligent counter-programming from Paramount Pictures has seen the most recent rendition of Stephen King Pet Sematary l and in second place with $ 25 million, despite a less than stellar response from critics. The film received rave reviews after its premiere at the South By Southwest Film Festival, but is now barely fresh with 61% on the Tomatometer. That's better than the critics for the 1989 version of Mary Lambert's Pet Sematary (48% with 31 critics), but without strong word-of-mouth, there may be to doubt that the new film reaches $ 57.4. million that the original movie did 30 years ago. (That's about $ 117 million in today's dollars.)
Directors Kevin Kölsch & Dennis Widmyer are unlikely to match the 25-million-week-end inflation rate of dollars. Of the eight horror films that opened between $ 22 million and $ 26 million, only The Visit and 2005 The Amityville Horror managed to surpbad $ 57 million. (Each one actually earned $ 65.2 million.) Two more films – Evil Dead from 2013 and Poltergeist from 2015 – seem to be more in line with public response and dropped by 63 , 2% and 64.4%. in their second weekend. Grant yourself next week to see which side goes Pet Sematary

Meanwhile, another horror film climbs on the charts. Jordan by Jordan Peele is now ahead of Halloween by 2018 after 201 days, with $ 152.3 million against a total of $ 150.2 million. It's the second highest of all time for a horror movie. He also won the third weekend of Halloween (between 13.8 and 10.8 million dollars). Pet Sematary took a few spectators from us this weekend, but more and more people will still talk about us while he continues to chart its way to $ 200 million. Its international total is $ 216.5 million.
A film that does not reach $ 200 million – at least not on the national front – is Tim Burton's Dumbo . This is the 13th Disney movie released in more than 3,000 movie theaters, with a 60% drop or more during its second weekend. With more than $ 76 million after 10 days, Dumbo was at the origin of Tarzan of 1999, Lilo & Stitch and of Wild Pigs on Disney cards. The film grossed $ 137.5 million more internationally, for a total of $ 213 million to date. It will take more than half a billion dollars to break even.
Fortunately, Captain Marvel's figures still seem excellent. Its national revenue of $ 374 million is the 19th highest gross performance after 31 days of publication. And the $ 12.6 million he won this weekend is the 21st best fifth weekend of all time. It's now the 37th film to break the billion dollar mark (and the seventh Marvel Cinematic film: A universe to do it) and it continues to climb on these two charts. This weekend, it has also become the 30th most important film of all time.
This Time Last Year: A Quiet Place Started His Record

The John Krasinski Movie A Quiet Place opened for $ 50.2 million, starting to become one of the greatest horror movies of all time. Universal comedy Blockers comes in third place with $ 20.5 million and the drama of Ted Kennedy Chappaquiddick opens seventh with $ 5.7 million. Ready player Steven Spielberg Ready will only have $ 100 million in the domestic market. The second weekend of this $ 24.6 million film allowed the top 10 films to reach a total of $ 140.86 million, with an average Tomatometer score of 60.9 %. The top 10 this year reported about $ 138.59 million and an average of 64.7% on the tomatometer.
