The Maze-Runner crushed the competition this weekend, easily surpassing the earnings of A Walk Among the Tombstones and This Is Where I Leave You combined! With $32.5 million, The Maze Runner has had the most successful weekend since Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles' debut early last month. It's a strong showing for a movie without any known stars, and it nearly earned back its production cost of $34 million in just its opening 3 days. Given its great success, its sequel The Maze Runner: Scorch Trials has just been announced for 2015. Liam Neeson's dark new thriller, A Walk Among the Tombstones, failed to perform as well his previous outings, and fell short of my own personal expectations with $13.1 million. The grown-up comedy This Is Where I Leave You took the bronze with $11.9 million, while last week's top 2 movies No Good Deed and Dolphin Tale 2, rounded out the top 5.
Next week will see the release of The Equalizer starring Denzel Washington and The Boxtrolls. Check back next Monday to see how well they fare at the box office!
