Birds of Prey is #1



For the weekend of February 7-9, 2020, Birds of Prey was the easy #1. Can’t help but think WB expected more from it, but the marketing wasn’t great. Good thing the reviews are. Word-of-mouth should help keep it afloat, but this is a movie that should have opened to $50 million.

Bad Boys for Life keeps dominating, absolutely terrific for Will Smith. 1917 also has long legs and should get a boost next after it wins an Oscar or two tonight. Some of the other ones still hanging on by their fingernails in theaters (Parasite! Jojo Rabbit!) are hoping for some award boosts too.

Next week, the #1 spot should go to Sonic the Hedgehog.



Opens February 14
SONIC THE HEDGEHOG with Jim Carrey, James Marsden and Tika Sumpter.
FANTASY ISLAND with Michael Pena, Lucy Hale, Maggie Q and Portia Doubleday.
THE PHOTOGRAPH with LaKeith Stanfield, Issa Rae and Courtney B. Vance.
