When a movie out there four weeks becomes number one, it's never a good sign for the overall health of the box office. With 17.6 million won in the USA for its fourth weekend, Guardians of the Galaxy easily dominates the competition. And summer of 2014 will remain a rotten summer for USA since overall revenues are lower by 20% compared to summer 2013 (no children's movie like Monsters Academy last year weighed). Disney / Marvel does not care, the studio can gloat since with US revenue of 251.8 million, Guardians of the Galaxy will soon beat the 259.7 million Captain America: The Winter Soldier and become the biggest hit of 2014 in the USA. Only Hunger Games: Uprising Part 1 (? Perhaps Interstellar Christopher Nolan) will be able to beat him before 2015.Ninja Turtles is number two of the weekend: still harvested 16.8 million in three days, for total of 145.6 million American recipes. Internationally, the film took home 67.5 million-and has not yet been released in Europe, which means that the career of the Ninja Turtles reboot is not over yet.
Only new strength of the weekend, if I stay starts third with 16.3 million. The film had started strong Friday (6.8 million), and almost be sufficiently strong to overthrow the Guardians and the Ninja Turtles, a few hundred thousand dollars. Melodrama adapted from the best-selling novel by Gayle Forman and first film by RJ Cutler (producer of the Nashville series) movie, If I stay recounts the experience of a young cellist daughter (Moretz deKick-Ass) in a coma following an accident in which his entire family perished. His spirit will escape from his battered body and she will relive his past, and all critical decisions of his young life. Overall, the reviews are not very packed face this melodrama but perf Moretz is said to be remarkable. What's nice is that if I stay cost only 11 million small and is therefore instantly repaid this weekend end.Avec a second weekend to $ 11 million, the comedy Let's Be Cops eventually be more than profitable. 45 million at the box office for a comedy US (where Jake Johnson and Damon Wayans Jr. sting uniforms cops and the cons are) certainly lynched by critics but has mostly cost only 17 million. It would not be surprising that 20th Century Fox, distributor and producer of the film, soon gives the green light to a sequel. When the Game Stands Tall in fifth place in the ranking of the weekend, with $ 9 million. You did not hear about this sports drama (this is a true story) where Jim Caviezel plays the coach Bob Ladouceur, who leads the California high school American football team the Spartans to a record winning streak? Given the numbers of the weekend, the Americans either.
But the failure of the unknown When the Game Stands Tall is nothing compared to that Desin City - I killed her. That yields 6.4 million at the start, the eighth position, behind The Giver (sixth with 6.7 million) etExpendables3 (seventh with 6.6 million). The first Sin City was starting first with 29.1 million in April 2005 This is a new failure to co-director Robert Rodriguez Machete Kills after October 2013 (Gravity and crushed by Captain Phillips, the film started at 3.8 million for only 15 million worldwide revenues). What has happened? Adapted as the first film comics of Frank Miller (co-director), Sin City - I killed for her -Budget estimated 65 million dollars- receives average reviews, but certainly not enough to gun down her recipes. Especially since it could be sold as a sexy and violent attractive alternative, (think of the controversies surrounding the film on breast-see here-Eva Green) to the Guardians of the Galaxy. But the novelty has contributed to the success of the first Sin City (with its black and white and striking digital effects) is gone. And this sequel arrived nine years later. Too late? We'll see if the movie will find colors internationally: it comes out especially in France on September 17, and will close the American Film Festival in Deauville September 14.
