The box office results for the weekend of April 20th – 22nd sees an unlikely film dethrone The Hunger Games<\/em> off its comfy perch for the last five weeks. Think Like a Man<\/em> over-achieved in a financial sense and has earned rave reviews from moviegoers thus far. Also doing well in its debut was the latest Nicholas Sparks’ romance product. Here are the studio estimates:<\/p>\n

1. Think Like a Man ($33 million)<\/p>\n

2. The Lucky One ($22.8 million)<\/p>\n

3. The Hunger Games ($14.5 million)<\/p>\n

4. Chimpanzee ($10.2 million)<\/p>\n

5. The Three Stooges ($9.2 million)<\/p>\n

6. The Cabin in the Woods ($7.7 million)<\/p>\n

7. American Reunion ($5.2 million)<\/p>\n

8. Titanic 3D ($5 million)<\/p>\n

9. 21 Jump Street ($4.6 million)<\/p>\n

10. Mirror Mirror ($4.1 million)<\/p>\n

Analysis<\/p>\n

The stars aligned for Screen Gems’ Think Like a Man<\/em><\/strong>. Having a relatively low production budget of $12 million enabled everyone involved to celebrate this weekend. Everything is working in this flick’s favor, well, besides some past-their-prime film critics slamming this; but with a two-week buffer zone before the summer blockbusters start to assault theaters, this could make a solid push to the $100 million mark.<\/p>\n

Nicholas Sparks has yet another one of his sappy novels adapted into a cinematic feature in the form of The Lucky One<\/strong><\/em>. Budgeted at $25 million (typical for any adapted Sparks’ product), Warner Bros. has to be pleased that this patent romance tale became the author’s 2nd highest grossing opening to date (2010’s Dear John<\/em> hit $30.4 million). Only bad news hitting this product is the lovely critics loathe this sucker.<\/p>\n

Disneynature released its fourth title in Chimpanzee<\/strong><\/em> and it will easily give the sub-divisions largest opening weekend to date. The budget for these types of cinematic documentaries range all over the place (2009’s Oceans<\/em> rang up an $80 million bill); so it’s tough to state whether this will be a Flopper<\/strong> or a Sleeper<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The Hunger Games<\/strong><\/em> is up to $356 million on the domestic front. Mind-boggling comes to, uh, mind.<\/p>\n

21 Jump Street<\/strong><\/em> currently holds the longest streak in the top ten with 6 weeks. Domestically, this has climbed to just under $127 million…and there’s still a little gas left in the tank.<\/p>\n

This Friday, another full slate of wide releases invades hoping to jump start the summer movie season a bit early. The Raven, The Five-Year Engagement, The Pirates! Band of Misfits<\/em>, and Safe<\/em> all try to capitalize on their respective niche markets. Reviews will be right here my fellow Shockers!<\/p>\n
