USA box office for the 16th weekend of 2025

 
USA box office on the 16th weekend of 2025 is up 80% compared to last year when "Civil War" was the top-grossing movie.  "Sinners" is the top-grossing film this weekend. 

But it's down 27% compared to the peak year of 2017, when "The Fate of the Furious" ruled the box office.


New York Times, 4/20/2025

Brooks Barnes reports:
But the film — directed, written and produced by Ryan Coogler — was expensive, analysts noted, costing Warner Bros. at least $150 million to make and market worldwide. The studio also agreed to demands by Mr. Coogler’s representatives for unusually generous compensation. As a result, for Warner Bros. to make money, “Sinners” will need to attract substantial crowds in the weeks ahead. “It’s an excellent opening for a period horror film, except that it’s hard to call it completely successful because of its enormous budget,” David A. Gross, a film consultant, said in an email.
