President's Day Weekend Receipts: Safe House Leads Lucrative Holiday

It had been indeed a really happy President's Day Weekend in Hollywood, where galleries loved the rare treat of 5 wide Feb releases raking in $20 million or even more. Unhealthy news? The 2 latest ones raised the trunk. Sorry, Nicolas Cage and Reese Witherspoon - your Holiday Weekend Receipts are here. [All figures are four-day weekend estimations.] 1. Safe House Gross: $28,40,000 ($82,600,000) Screens: 3,121 (PSA $9,100) Days: 2 (Change: -29.3%) You will find a couple of large those who win among this weekend's achievements, but I'll opt for Ryan Reynolds because the greatest: On one side, the man can't open anything regardless of how frantically his agents or producers want him to have the ability to. Alternatively, there's no better box-office second fiddle alive lacking maybe Jeremy Renner, who wouldn't hold that distinction for lengthy anyway with both Avengers and also the Bourne Legacy on deck to refine both his blockbuster ensemble and leading-guy creds. So continue, Hollywood! Let Reynolds support your 57-year-old action star today! 2. The Vow Gross: $26,600,000 ($88,527,000) Screens: 2,958 (PSA $8,993) Days: 2 (Change: -35.4%) Channing Tatum and Rachel McAdams aren't shabby entertainers, either, both on the way to their leading their first non-franchise $100 million grosser. Unless of course The Vow 2 is on the way starring a particular rat along with a churro, which I am unsure counts, however, you let me know. 3. Journey 2: The Mysterious Island Gross: $26,400,000 ($59,516,000) Screens: 3,500 Days: 2 (Change: -3.4%) There's without doubt that simply scraping below $60 million in ten days of release is really a let-lower for those involved (aside from Michael Caine, I suppose, as lengthy because the check removed), but a 3.4 % drop? Yowza. Pretty good whatsoever, especially opposite... 4. Ghost Driver: Spirit of Vengeance Gross: $25,700,000 (new) Screens: 3,174 (PSA $6,397) Days: 1 I'm not sure where this creative development lands Nicolas Cage on his mission being screen acting's version of Brought Zeppelin. Maybe it might be simpler to interrupt it lower to Zeppelin song-title analogues, like, "What's and What Will Not BeInch or "Sick Again." Any others? 5. What This Means Is War Gross: $20,400,000 (new) Screens: 3,189 (PSA: $6,397) Days: 1 Needs less Pine, more pudding. [Figures via Box Office Mojo] Follow S.T. VanAirsdale on Twitter.
