USAn Box Office: Alita is on speakerphone

Image Finally, the USA rental waited for new products that could significantly improve the financial situation of distributors. Only debutants entered the top 3 according to the results of the past weekend, and largely thanks to them, the total box office result grew by almost 50% compared to the previous weekend and amounted to 919.9 million rubles. By the way, this is the third result this year - only the first two weeks after the New Year turned out to be more profitable.

The top five for the weekend (February 14-17) is as follows:

1. "Alita: Battle Angel"

Week at the box office: 1
Added: 367.6 million rubles.
Total fees: 452.8 million rubles.
Sank / Rise: - (-)

Already the previous week, when the film adaptation of Yukito Kishiro's manga made it to the top five based on the results of preview shows alone, it hinted that Alita was waiting for a quick start in the domestic box office. These forecasts were fully justified, and Robert Rodriguez's tape easily climbed to the top of the financial rating. The director's previous work, the crime thriller Sin City 2: A Woman Worth Killing For, earned much less in 2014 - only 121.4 million rubles. for the first weekend and 263.5 million rubles. for the whole time spent in cinemas.

2. "Loudspeaker"

Added: 224.5 million rubles.
Total fees: 224.5 million rubles.
Sank / Rise: - (-)

The second place in Loudspeaker was another proof of the audience's love for the work of Quartet I and the interest of USAs in the original Italian film Ideal Strangers, the remake of which is the tape of Alexei Nuzhny. The latter, of course, was noted for more modest achievements, having collected only 60.5 million rubles. If we compare “Loudspeaker” with the previous film “Quartet I”, the comedy “What Men Talk About. Continuation ”, then it started from the level of 204.8 million rubles, which means that the new work of the group may well surpass the final result of its predecessor (408 million rubles).

3. "Seven Dinners"

Added: 64.4 million rubles.
Total fees: 64.4 million rubles.
Sank / Rise: - (-)

The third place in the rating was occupied by another USA comedy. The lag of Kirill Pletnev's film from the main rivals turned out to be more significant, although "Seven Dinners" improved the result of Pletnev's previous directorial work: the drama "Without Me", with the same Polina Maximova, started from 43 million rubles.

4. "Claustrophobes"

Week at the box office: 2
Added: 57.3 million rubles.
Total fees: 206.5 million rubles.
Sank / Rise: -2 (-48%)

Thanks to the fact that the thriller by Adam Robitel did not lose as many viewers as "Lego Movie 2", he managed to bypass the leader of the last week. "Claustrophobes" show a good result for a film of this genre, and the picture put on its shoulder blades with similar themes "Quest" and "Claustrophobia" in the first weekend.

5. "Lego Movie 2"

Week at the box office: 2
Added: 55.4 million rubles.
Total fees: 185.9 million rubles.
Sank / Rise: -4 (-51%)

Due to the significant decline in viewers' interest, the animation tape ended up in the tail of the top 5. "LEGO Film 2" will certainly bypass the first part and "LEGO Ninjago Film", but the sequel will hardly reach the record holder of the film series in USA, the cartoon about Batman with his 280.4 million rubles.
