After several quiet weeks in movie theaters, four films entered wide release over the weekend. “PAW Patrol: The Might Movie” came out the top dog, with $23 million in ticket sales, according to studio estimates Sunday.
The performances of all four films – “PAW Patrol: The Mighty Movie,” “Saw X,” “The Creator” and “Dumb Money” – told a familiar story at the box office. What worked? Horror and animated franchises. What didn’t? Originality and comedy.
