North American box office: "Mr. Glass" topped the "Dragon Ball Super" fans.
1905 movie network news Last weekend (01.18-01.20), the box office revenue in North America totaled $129 million, up 8.2% from the previous week. Monday is Martin Luther King Memorial Day, and we will continue to have a holiday. Among the new films on the list, M Knight Shamalan’s new film "Mr. Glass" earned $40.58 million in the first three days of the first weekend, which was close to $40.01 million in the first week of "Split" in 2017 and higher than $30.33 million in the first week of "Never Die" in 2000. Not surprised or pleased. The media mostly think that the content is too full and too anxious, but there is no emotional touch. They think that they are not attracted to fans of "The Dead Robber" or "Split" and become ungrateful at both ends. Another new film is a slightly niche animated film "Dragon Ball Super: brolly". The plot is based on the animated series "Dragon Ball". After telling the story of Wukong and brolly, it is biased towards fans. In the first week, it won 10.65 million US dollars in 1233 theaters in North America, but it attracted a limited audience and was not optimistic about its subsequent box office development.

"Mr. Glass" is too full of word of mouth, and the fans of "Dragon Ball Super: brolly" are serious
Recommended star rating of Mr. Glass: ★★★
"Dragon Ball Super: brolly" Recommended star rating: ★★★ (specific fan direction)
On the weekend of Martin Luther King’s Day, M Knight Shamalan’s new work "Mr. Glass" earned 40.58 million US dollars at the box office in North America from Friday to Sunday, which was close to 40.01 million US dollars in the first week of "Split" in 2017 and higher than 30.33 million US dollars in the first week of "Never Die" in 2000. In all the Martin Luther King Memorial Weekends, this box office ranked third, only behind the $41 million of "Sasaki Brothers" in 2014 and the $89 million of "American Sniper" in 2015. The production cost of Mr. Glass is $20 million, and the global box office has reached $90 million. These figures undoubtedly prove Shamalan’s ability to make money again. In fact, even in the low tide of Shamalan’s poor reputation, many of his films were very profitable. For example, in 2008, the production cost of "Death" was 48 million US dollars, and the final global box office was 163 million US dollars. In 2004, the production cost of "Mystery Village" was 60 million US dollars, and the final global box office was 256 million US dollars. What he really didn’t earn was only.
At present, the cinema score of Mr. Glass is B, IMDb score is 7.2, MTC score is 42, and the freshness of rotten tomatoes is 36%. "Hollywood Reporter" commented: "As the final part of the trilogy, this film is like a mixed bag, twisting all the previous narrative clues into one, but unfortunately trying too hard to tell the audience that Shamalan has a very special idea on the popular comic adaptation story, but the result is not shown." "Variety" said: "It’s still very happy to see Shamalan return, but" Mr. Glass "takes up more of our time, but it can’t create any touches, which makes people feel busy and dazzling, but there are few moving moments of emotional resonance." "International Screen" thinks: "Apart from McEvoy’s performance as a smoke bomb and Bruce Willis’s convincing charm, the whole film has actually not gone far in the concept of’ what happens when people become superheroes’." Due to the poor reputation, the follow-up box office track of Mr. Glass may be more similar to the Clover Files, which was opened on the weekend of Martin Luther King’s Day in 2008. The film earned $40 million in the first week and $80 million in the local box office.
Another noteworthy new film last weekend was the classic IP cartoon "Dragon Ball Super: brolly", which was only opened in 1,233 theaters in North America, aiming at clearly attracting a specific fan base, and won $10.65 million at the box office in three days in the first weekend. The story of "Dragon Ball Super: brolly" is a continuation of the upcoming TV animation "Dragon Ball", which tells the story between Saiyan brolly and Wukong. The film was nominated for the best cartoon in the 42nd Japanese Film Academy Award and was very popular among fans. At present, the media scores and fans’ scores of all platforms are very high, with IMDb score of 8.6, MTC score of 64 and the freshness of rotten tomatoes of 80%. The Los Angeles Times said: "brolly is ready to give Dragon Ball fans everything they want in a movie, and other viewers may feel lost in this world." Midwest Film Journal also thinks: "For the novice Dragon Ball, this film provides a dazzling animation time." There are also some media that don’t like it, such as "Movie Country", which means: "This is a meaningless garbage culture animation only for fans."
Old movies: "Neptune" local over 300 million "Upward" has a strong box office stamina.
Warner Bros.’ s superhero movie Neptune has entered its fifth week. After the weekend, the film’s box office outside North Captain America: Civil War has reached 759 million US dollars, surpassing’s 745 million US dollars, and the local box office has also exceeded 300 million US dollars. At present, the film’s global total box office is 1.063 billion US dollars, which is still 3 million US dollars short. Amber Heard’s Neptune can surpass Johnny Depp’s highest-grossing Pirates of the Caribbean: The Coffin. At the same time, Aquaman is also the movie with the strongest box office stamina after Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Age of Mutations in 2014. It is expected that Aquaman will have a good room for growth before The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part and Listen to Men’s Hearts come out on February 8.
In the following week, Upward Bound kept quite steady, with the box office of $15.6 million in three days over the weekend, which was only 23% lower than that in the first week.
