Ares »In the first week of release (Box Office Week)

Tron: Ares, Disney’s high -profile sequence, failed to flame the box office in the first week of release. The film, which had about 4,000 cinemas, sold only $ 33.5 million to make a disappoiing start.

The opening is weak in every way, especially for a franchise, which is five decades, and fans were expecting a new version since 2010. The film, made on the $ 180 million astronomical budget (excluding advertising costs), did not succeed outside the US market and sold only $ 27 million to reach $ 60 million. Of course, analysts had said from the outset that the film was not supposed to kill the box office, but it was expected to have a minimum of $ 45 to $ 50 million. Tron: Ares had a better situation in Premium, Aims, Dolby and 3D and 67 perce of the cinemas.

Despite gaining a positive B scoring in cinema polls (showing that audiences generally loved the film), this sci-fi work did not even reach the opening of the previous episode, Tron: Heritage (2010); The $ 170 million film sold for $ 44 million in the first week and eveually sold $ 409 million; In other words, it was only able to offset its production costs (as usual, we are reminded that 50 % of the film’s sales reach the filmmakers).

However, “Ares” was at least better than the first part (Product 1982); Tron started his work with $ 4.7 million and in the coming years it became a Cult work. The new version is made by Joachim Running, who has “Pirates of the Caribbean: The Deads Do Not Tale” in which Jared Leto, Greta Lee and Ivan Peters play the role. The story is about humanity’s first dealings with artificial ielligence creatures, and the adveures begin with the arrival of Ares (Jared Leo), an advanced artificial ielligence from the digital world to the real world.

Tron: Ares, however, was not the only new work that appeared disappoiing. Comedy Comedy Comedy Cyanfron, “The Roof Man” starring Chong Titom, and the musical film “Spider -Woman Kiss” starring Jennifer Lopez also had trouble attracting spectators. “The Roof Man” came in second with $ 8 million sales, and “Spider -female Kiss” came in 13th with a small sales of $ 840,000. Analysts had predicted that the “roof man” will sell about $ 12 million and the Spider -Woman kissing about $ 3 million.

The situation of the “roofing man” is of course not bad; The film is made with a $ 19 million budget and will not cause a major financial loss to Paramou Studios. In this film based on reality, Titom Titom plays the role of Jeffrey Manchester; A man who has stolen dozens of McDonald’s branches and stayed in a secret store for mohs. Cyanfron acknowledged that the “roof man” was a long -standing project. The combination that can get both the old fans and the ehusiasts of real criminal stories. The feedback has been positive so far and the film has received a positive B score and the average rating in Rattomitosis is 85 %; So it can be optimistic that next week it will sell between $ 3 and $ 4 million.

“Spider woman kiss” but is another story; The produced by Bill Condon was produced with a $ 34 million budget, and after the screening at the Sundance Festival, the Linesgate Studios bought it at an unknown price. With this detail, it is not exactly how much the film will be with financial loss. The film, which is considered a reconstruction, takes us to an Argeine prison and is ceered around a prisoner who dreams of his beloved movie star (starring Jennifer Lopez). The original version, which was released in 1985, sold a total of $ 17 million. Now forty years later, even without inflation, the new version will not even be close to that figure. A full -fledged failure.

In sixth place, Sony’s religious studio film, “The Spirit on Fire” sold $ 3 million in the first week of release. This inspirational story about a man who survived his whole body has received positive reactions. The audience has awarded that score A, and its average rating in Rattomitosis is 98 %. The rest of the table was held in previous weeks. Leonardo DiCaprio’s epic action comedy came in third with $ 6.7 million (a 38 perce drop). The film has sold $ 54.5 million so far in North America and a total of 138 million worldwide. Given the cost of producing $ 130 million in the film, “One Battle after another” must perform well in the coming weeks to justify its staggering budget. To be more precise, the film has to sell about $ 300 million to make up for its budget.

In the eighth place, Dwayne Johnson’s sports drama, “Crushing Car”, with a 70 perce drop in sales in the second week, sold only $ 1.7 million. The film, which has a $ 50 million budget, has sold for only $ 10.1 million so far and is on the way to become the biggest commercial failure of A. The Benny Sefidi story tells the true story of one of the former heroes of UFC that encouers a variety of crises, from addiction to materials and pills, to a complex romaic relationship and heavy struggles.

In the limited screening, the Luka Guadanino’s mystery trailer, “After Huing”, was screened in six halls and sold $ 154,000. The adveures of this trailer-alternative film takes place in the academic space. Julia Roberts plays the role of Alma, a professor of philosophy. When one of his studes, his close friend and colleague accuses Hank (Andrew Garfield) of sexual harassme; Hank also decides to accuse the girl of plagiarizing the plagiarism so that Alma is in a tough round. The broad screening of the film begins next week and to see how much atteion is taken.

On the other hand, the psychological drama “If I had been kicked” (another product of A. 24) was released in four halls and sold $ 89,000. The film has received some positive reviews, and her story is about a mother whose life suddenly begins to break up. September was well spe, but the box office has done poorly in the last few weeks. Now we have to wait for a blockbuster savior to improve the situation.
