Hansel & Gretel Tops Weekend Box Office

9:29 am, January 27th, 2013

BOX OFFICE

(MGM)

Hansel & Gretel: Witch Hunters is on pace to top a slow weekend at the box office, with the updated Brothers Grimm fairy tale-turned-action movie debuting to approximately $18 million.

Horror flick Mama should take second place with $13 million or so.

Silver Linings Playbook and Zero Dark Thirty are in a tight race for the #3 spot, with both movies tracking toward about $9 million.

The new Jason Statham-Jennifer Lopez movie Parker will be fifth, opening to $7 million.

It looks like Django Unchained ($4.8 million) should hit #6, ahead of a pack of movies all projected to finish around $4 million — new comedy release Movie 43, and dramatic holdovers Les Miserables, Gangster Squad and Broken City.

    Glad that the movie is performing well. A fan of Jeremy’s so I’ll probably check it out, but I can’t help but think about all the rotten reviews it has gotten on rotten tomatoes/flixster. Oh, well. :/

    Yikes! Statham movies usually do pretty well opening weekend. Could it be because of Lopez?

    The rotten reviews indicate it is good!! I always love the movies critics say are bad, this movie did not disappoint! Was awesome, good action and no slow parts. I loved it!
