‘Jumanji’ Tops Box Office for a Second Week
Warner Bros., which bought the movie from the Weinstein Company following sexual assault accusations against Harvey Weinstein, has excellent
exit-polling numbers to bank on — the movie earned an A CinemaScore grade overall, and an A+ from audience members under 35.
“Jumanji” also topped the Chinese box office and has made over $550 million worldwide;
its success has cemented Kevin Hart and Dwayne Johnson as box office near-guarantees.
Despite a 100 percent score on Rotten Tomatoes, “Paddington 2” made just $10.6 million in its arrival
to North America, about less than half of what its 2014 prequel made in its first weekend.
Less successful was the Liam Neeson vehicle “The Commuter,” which opened to $13.4 million, according to comScore, which compiles box office data.
