Chappie Leads an Anemic Box-Office. American Sniper is First.
Chappie was the top at the box-office this past week in a rather slow weekend. The film earned just $13.3 million which is well below Neill Blomkamp’s previous movies District 9 and Elysium. The film was eviscerated online where it had 29% ratting on RottenTomatoes as of this posting.
In comic book movie news Kingsman: The Secret Service earned an additional $8.3 million. That brings the movie’s domestic total to $98 million. It’s doing quite well with a total of $248.3 million earned worldwide.
Big Hero 6 added $325,000 to its total. Domestically the film has earned $221.3 million and continues to earn even with being released digitally and on blu-ray.
In the biggest news, American Sniper has moved into the top spot, knocking out The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1 as the top earning film released in 2014.
