Generations have grown up with this movie, and the&#8217;re glad to see it return to the forefront of film. Thirdly, and most importantly, &#8220;The Lion King&#8221; is just a well-made movie with a story that deeply resonates with people. It&#8217;s as simple as that. <\/p>\n<p>However, it&#8217;s still pretty impressive that the film beat out yet two more big names&#8211;Brad Pitt in &#8220;Moneyball&#8221; and Taylor Lautner in &#8220;Abduction.&#8221; More on &#8220;Abudction&#8221; later, but studios should start analyzing how &#8220;The Lion King&#8221; managed to trump the aforementioned as well as &#8220;Dolphin Tale&#8221; and &#8220;Killer Elite,&#8221; all newly-released films. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Flop Alert:<\/strong> &#8220;Abduction&#8221; and &#8220;Killer Elite.&#8221; &#8220;Killer Elite&#8221;&#8216;s production budget is $70 million, for it to only make $9,500,000 is pretty rough. &#8220;Abduction&#8221; is in a similar boat; it cost $35 million to make, but has only made $11,200,000 so far. However, it has the opportunity to make up its difference; &#8220;Killer Elite&#8221; doesn&#8217;t really have that chance.  <\/p>\n<p>Also, the critics aren&#8217;t being kind to either film. &#8220;Killer Elite&#8221; is at 23% rotten on Rotten Tomatoes, while &#8220;Abduction&#8221; is at an appalling 3%. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Sleeper Hit:<\/strong> I would say that &#8220;Dolphin Tale&#8221; might be the closest thing to a sleeper hit; the film supposedly dials down what could have been a saccharine-filled script and makes it, according to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.rottentomatoes.com\/m\/dolphin_tale\/\">Rotten Tomatoes<\/a>, an &#8220;earnest, sweet, and well-told&#8230;rare family film that both kids and parents can enjoy.&#8221; Audiences and critics alike seem to love it. <\/p>\n<p>This is my last week filling in for Joe; he&#8217;ll be back next week to his usual post.
