This past weekend offered a breather between big openings for "Despicable Me 4" and "Twisters/Deadpool and Wolverine." While "Longlegs" and "Fly Me to the Moon" were expected to take second and third place at the box office, the results were surprising. "Longlegs" exceeded projections, grossing $22.6 million, while "Fly" fell short with only $10 million. Despite a modest budget, "Longlegs" outperformed expectations and showed potential for future success. In contrast, "Fly Me to the Moon" underperformed, despite a high production cost. Its lackluster box office performance raises questions about the viability of Apple's theatrical releases. Despite positive audience reaction, the film struggled to attract viewers. Overall, the weekend saw five films grossing over $10 million, indicating a healthy box office. Notably, the latest installment in the "Despicable Me" franchise dominated, setting the stage for continued success. Additionally, a new awards contender, "Sing Sing," enjoyed a solid debut in selected theaters.
