Box Office: Highs and Downers (May 11-13)

"Who took home the number one spot, and who need a session to get those numbers higher in this week's highs and downers"


You would expect for Avengers: Infinity War to keep its number one spot this weekend since there are no other blockbuster movies being released. But it is Mothers Day weekend and there are a few mother centered movies that might have a shot at the number one spot  this weekend (not really)

Highs 

Infinity War Stays Strong


And still at the number one spot Avengers: Infinity War! It's no surprise that Thanos and the Avengers managed to stay at number one easily by making over 61 million in its 3rd weekend in release. Its reign at number one might come to an end this coming weekend with Deadpool 2 coming out, but I'm sure that Marvel and Disney are happy with the results The Avengers have been putting up now sitting at over 1.6 Billion worldwide so far. I still have hope that it will cross 2 billion 

Mother's Show Out 

With it being Mothers Day weekend you could expect for families to go out to see some movies together, so it was the perfect time to release two movies about mothers to take their money. Life of the Party and Breaking In did well in there opening weekend making 18.5 and 16.5 million respectively over the holiday weekend. Although not the greatest film, I thought Breaking In wasn't a high blower, so I am happy for its results. However, Life of the Party shows that people will go out to see Mellissa McCarthy no matter how shitty the movie is by making it the number 2 movie this weekend, which is good for the film but terrible for us which you'll see in a bit. 

Downers 

Life of the Party

Yes, this movie did great over the weekend, but we have got to stop going on to see a movie like this. This is probably the laziest and worse movie of the year by far, but we wouldn't be able to tell since it did so well over the weekend. This movie has been getting panned by critics and fans have started to grow tired of McCarthy and her husband movies giving this a low rating as well, but since this movie did well they will probably make another movie just as bad. Hopefully, one day when these two make another movie together that this bad, we won't go see it, so then the next time they have to at least try and make a good movie.

Blockers - Movie Review

"Cock blockers have to be the worst for everyone, let's hope a movie with that title won't be the same." Blockers, or as it should be called Cock Blocker since there is a cock in front of it, is the latest comedy starring WWE star John Cena, Leslie Mann, and Ike Barinholtz as three parents who discover their kids are planning a sex pack on prom night, and it is up to them to stop them from making a mistake they may regret. This movie reminded me somewhat of American Pie a little only with the girls trying to get laid, and I have to say I was entertained by the film. Cast/Characters Now I love John Cena, I'm a huge fan of him in WWE, but I know why some people might be worried about him being in this movie. His acting can be a little too much sometimes and he is not really a comedic actor, but I found him entertaining in this movie. He had a few jokes in here that made me laugh and he pulled off some of the serious moments well enough. it also helps when he ...

"First quarter of 2018 is over, so let's take a look at the movies so far that I was glad to get lit too" With the summer blockbuster season fastly approaching, the first quarter of 2018 for film fans has come to an end. We had some movies that made us regreting rolling up and going to the movies, but we also got some films that were worth getting stoned for, So I think its only right to give some of these films some love. These are the top 5 movies of 2018 so far that blew me away. Now I am no superman, so I didn't really see everything that came out, so this list will be only based on movies I have seen. But before I get to my top 5, I'll give an honorable mention to Unsane and Game Night for just missing my Top 5. #5  Annihilation is a movie I did not review, but it barely manages to slip into my top 5, mostly due to not much competition around this time of the year. The movie received pretty mixed reviews from critics and ...
