Here are the studio estimates:<\/p>\n<p><strong>1.  Identity Thief ($36.5 million)<\/p>\n<p>2.  Warm Bodies ($11.5 million)<\/p>\n<p>3.  Side Effects ($10 million)<\/p>\n<p>4.  Silver Linings Playbook ($6.9 million)<\/p>\n<p>5.  Hansel &#038; Gretel: Witch Hunters ($5.7 million)<\/p>\n<p>6.  Mama ($4.3 million)<\/p>\n<p>7.  Zero Dark Thirty ($4 million)<\/p>\n<p>8.  Argo ($2.5 million)<\/p>\n<p>9.  Django Unchained ($2.2 million)<\/p>\n<p>10.  Bullet to the Head ($1.9 million)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Analysis<\/p>\n<p>The opening weekend number <em><strong>Identity Thief<\/strong><\/em> is slightly ahead of its $35 million production budget.  And even with a plethora of unflattering reviews for the R-rated road trip\/buddy comedy, this looks to be an early year hit for Universal &#8211; something the studio was missing for the majority of last year.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Side Effects<\/strong><\/em> is laced with an A-list cast but it looks as if audiences were not in the mood for a Hitchcock-like tale.  The production budget was $30 million, so in all likelihood, a solid dose of DVD\/On-Demand sales will be required to help this see the blank ink on the balance sheet.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Django Unchained<\/strong><\/em> currently holds the longest streak in the top ten with 7 weeks.  Quentin Tarantino&#8217;s bloody western has now risen to $154.5 million on the domestic front.  And with 5 Oscar nominations in the holster, expect that to slightly increase as we inch closer to the Academy Awards on February 24th.<\/p>\n<p>With Thursday being Valentine&#8217;s Day, all the studios releasing products decided to let them loose a day early.  But it&#8217;s not all cheap romantic bait, folks.  Naturally, a Nicholas Sparks novel, <em>Safe Haven<\/em>, was adapted to the screen just in time for the Hallmark holiday.  There&#8217;s also the supernatural-teen concept, <em>Beautiful Creatures<\/em>.  The Weinstein Company elected to release a fam-friendly animation titled, <em>Escape from Planet Earth<\/em>.  And for those that would like to see a heart possibly explode, <em>A Good Day to Die Hard<\/em> will get your blood pumping.  Reviews will be right here my fellow Shockers!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/Identity-Thief.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/Identity-Thief.jpg\" alt=\"Identity Thief\" title=\"Identity Thief\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-115672\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/Identity-Thief.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/Identity-Thief-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a>     <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The box office results for the weekend of February 8th &#8211; 10th has comedy stealing money away from the rest of the pack.
