Madea tried her hardest this week but How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World kept its top spot at the box office. The Hidden World brought in just over $30 million in its second week. That’s good enough to bring its total domestic haul up just under $100 million at $97.6 million.
Coming in a close second this week is Tyler Perry’s latest trip to Madea’s house. Tyler Perry’s A Madea Family Funeral brought in a healthy $27 million in its debut. The film’s budget has yet to be released but the last two Madea entries cost $25 million and $5.5 million, respectively.
Continuing to deliver a disappointing run, Alita: Battle Angel landed in third this week with a paltry $7.2 million. Robert Rodriguez’ latest graphic novel adaptation hasn’t lived up to expectations in the U.S. with $72.4 million total. However, it seems to be taking off overseas with over $275 million made in global markets.
Rounding out the top five this week are two family movies with wildly different plots. In fourth, The LEGO Movie 2: The Second Part also continues to disappoint domestically with $6.6 million. That’s enough to push its total up over $90 million. Then, in fifth, Fighting With My Family brought in $4.6 million, setting its domestic total at $14.9 million.
Just outside the top five, a ‘Best Picture Boost’ seems to have hit Green Book. After last week’s unexpected Oscar win, the film jumped back into the top ten this week with $4.57 million, good enough for sixth place at the box office.
