February 5, 20205 yr Wow, that's awful for 'The Grudge'! :o I'm sure they didn't expect it to do THAT badly. Also did 'The Rhythm Section' not even go Top 15?! Yikes!!
February 5, 20205 yr Also did 'The Rhythm Section' not even go Top 15?! Yikes!! Indeed, it opened at #18 with £171,837. Remarkably, Oscar-nominated Richard Jewell opened even worse at #19 with £158,868. And the long-awaited "The Man Who Killed Don Quixote" opened even, even worse at #23 with £67,355.

February 5, 20205 yr It was a cute thriller film :( Blake Lively deserves better though, such an underrated actress!

February 12, 20205 yr Dolittle deserved much worse, God awful film! Did Underwater not even get Top 15?! Yikes!! It was a really good film too.
February 12, 20205 yr Really impressed with how Parasite did, whilst showing in less than 150 cinemas!
February 12, 20205 yr Amazing for Parasite! It's getting a much wider release too this week after it's Oscar win. Dolittle demolishing Birds Of Prey, even with previews not added, I assume it would have been an easy victory. 'Underwater' not going top 15 even is pretty embarassing!
February 12, 20205 yr Did Underwater not even get Top 15?! Yikes!! It was a really good film too. Underwater opened at #17 with £191, 869. The Rhythm Section dropped from #18 to #33 in it's second week with £11,984, only 5 places above Cats.
February 12, 20205 yr Absolutely shocked that Dolittle so convincingly got the #1 slot this week; it's heavily underperformed in the US (will probably lose over $100 million), it's reviews have been universally terrible, and its a franchise that doesn't seem to have much of a following (even the Eddie Murphy remake is largely forgotten). It has been advertised on all the buses here, which might have helped.
February 12, 20205 yr The advertisement and promotion for Dolittle is what has saved it. As well as the fact that there's no competition (until this week) from other kids/family movies. I imagine it'll fall to number 2 with about £3m-£3.5m next week, with Sonic debuting at #1 with a similar number to what Dolittle did this week (anywhere from £4m - £5m), considering it's the first weekend of half term this weekend.
February 16, 20205 yr In the US Sonic is heading for a $60m+ opening (4 day) weekend! They listened to the fans and it's paid off BIG TIME for them. I'm shook. @1228714381762015232
February 18, 20205 yr Sonic and Parasite slaying *.* Oops at Birds of Prey, def wouldn't have thought it would've been 5th in its 2nd week at the box office :o Emma also starting pretty nicely despite missing the top 5 *.*
