Final Thought – Cinema Releases 15 February 2019 & Box Office
It’s no surprise to see a sequel to the hugely successful horror movie Happy Death Day (2017) so soon. That’s because the first film took around $125.5 million at the box office with the budget a mere $4.8 million. It will be interesting to see if audiences are ready for Happy Death Day 2U especially as the budget has supposedly been increased to $9 million so it has to be an even better film right?
Box Office
The LEGO Movie 2: The Second Part enters at number one at the box office in both the UK and USA. However the first film took around $470 at over the course of its release. The sequel seems off to a slow start with only £4m and $34m at the respective box offices.
Meanwhile the James Cameron produced / Robert Rodriguez directed cyberpunk action film, Alita: Battle Angel enters at two in the UK film charts managing £3.2m. Liam Neeson’s action thriller Cold Pursuit manages to hit its box office earnings target despite the storm caused by the actors comment prior to the film’s release in America. It lands in UK cinemas next week and I expect it to perform reasonably well over here to.
That concludes are Cinema Releases 15 February 2019 feature, check back every Thursday for all the new releases along with their movie trailers.
