| Download I, Frankenstein Full Movie |
The film was expected to make nearly double that figure, but that’s mostly because reviews were comparing it to “Underworld,” a film which benefitted from a female lead in Kate Beckinsale.
This film had the star power of Aaron Eckhart. Other than a role in “Thank You for Smoking,” he’s best known for playing Harvey Dent / Two Face in “The Dark Knight.”
Instead, it was another winner weekend for Universal as Kevin Hart and Mark Wahlberg’s films “Ride Along” and “Lone Survivor” continue their runs at theaters.
For Disney, “Frozen” is continuing to be a behemoth since its November release. The film has officially made more than “The Lion King.” With a sing-along version headed for theaters the animated picture may reach $1 billion by the time its run ends.
Out of the top ten this week is Warner Bros.’ Best Picture Oscar nominee “Her.” The Spike Jonze film has made $19.7 million worldwide.
Here are this week’s winners and losers in Hollywood.
10. Fox’s horror flick “Devil’s Due” rounds out the top ten this week with $2.8 million. The film has made $18.7 million worldwide, costing an estimated $7 million to produce.
9. Oscar-nominated “The Wolf of Wall Street” brings in another $5 million. The Leonardo DiCaprio and Martin Scorsese movie has now made $175.2 million at theaters. The film cost Paramount a big $100 million.
8. Weinstein Company’s “August: Osage County” just edged out “Wall Street” with a little over $5 million. The dramedy which picked up Oscar nods for both Julia Roberts and Meryl Streep has made $35 million at theaters.
7. “American Hustle” moved down one spot this weekend with $7.1 million. The Sony picture from David O. Russell has made $162.4 million worldwide.
6. Lionsgate’s ill-fated “I, Frankenstein” opened much lower than expected with $8.3 million. The Aaron Eckhart film based on a graphic novel of the same name suffered from a staggering plot and poor marketing that didn’t do anything for the movie.
5. Even “Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit” beat out “Frankenstein” with $8.8 million in its second week. The next film in the Tom Clancy series may have only earned $30 million at home, but “Jack Ryan” is performing better overseas. The estimated $60 million film has now made $76.7 million worldwide.
4. “Frozen” has been crushing it at theaters since its Thanksgiving release and it shows no signs of stopping after another weekend of $9 million. The film should continue to bring in even more money since another sing-along version of the movie is expected in theaters. “Frozen” has made more than $810 million so far.
3. It’s not often that you see two kid films performing well at the same time in theaters, but “The Nut Job” manages to stay ahead of “Frozen” with $12.3 million in its second weekend. A sequel was just announced for the film.
2. “Lone Survivor” featuring Mark Wahlberg edged out the two animated pictures with another $12.6 million. The Universal film based on a true story has now made $93.6 million at theaters.
1. Taking the weekend for the second week in a row is Kevin Hart’s “Ride Along” with a big $21.2 million. The film had a huge $41 million opening weekend and has already tripled its estimated $25 million production budget earning $75.4 million.
