Tyler Perry's Boo! A Madea Halloweenand the Tom Cruise-led sequel Jack Reacher: Never Go Backare the clear box office winners in a strong weekend that saw moviegoers spread the love around.
Boo!is on Science Fiction Archivestop with ease. Perry's latest holiday-themed comedy earned an estimated $27.6 million at the domestic box office, two weekends before Halloween.
SEE ALSO: Tom Cruise should 'never go back' to Jack Reacher franchise after thisThat's the fourth-largest opening for Tyler Perry-branded features to date, after Why Did I Get Married Too?($29.3 million), Madea's Family Reunion($30 million) and Madea Goes to Jail($41 million). Even factoring out his Star Trek and Gone Girlappearances, the cumulative lifetime gross of Perry's films is fast-approaching a $1 billion.
Cruise also doesn't have much to be unhappy about. The Reacher sequel's estimated $23 million opening is a significant improvement on the original's $15.2 million late-December start in 2012.
In one weekend, Never Go Backhas already picked up more than one-quarter of the first movie's $80.1 million lifetime gross. That's a great start, and the 14th-biggest to date for Cruise-led features.
Even horror sequel Ouija: Origin of Evilis a success, despite opening at #3 with an estimated $14.1 million -- almost $5 million less than its 2014 predecessor. After just one weekend, the Halloween horror flick -- which is said to be budgeted at $9 million -- is already in the black.
The #3 position may switch once the final weekend numbers are released on Monday, with Ben Affleck's The Accountantdogging Ouijawith an estimated $14 million. In fact, the unrounded estimates for the two movies are just $30,000 apart; this is anyone's race.
The Girl on the Trainbrings up the rear of the weekend's top five, with an estimated $7.3 million. It's far enough ahead of #6 placeholder Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children-- which has an estimated $6 million -- that it's unlikely to move once the numbers are final.
It's been a healthy $58.9 million three-week run for The Girl on the Train, especially with another $45.1 million from foreign ticket sales. A Halloween week bounce is a lingering possibility for this R-rated thriller.
