Nothing says summer like an R-rated Guy Ritchie/Jason Statham action flick, right?
However, at least this year will give us more than last year’s paltry May lineup, which was dominated by IFC Films’ horror film The Wretched. Yikes!
Audiences clearly dug Ritchie’s latest flick, giving it an A- Cinemascore, compared to the B+ awarded to The Gentleman, which bodes well for its long-term box office prospects, though upcoming weekends present stiffer competition overall.
Shortly thereafter, Zack Snyder’s Army of the Dead hits Netflix and in limited theaters on May 21, followed by A Quiet Place Part II and Disney’s Cruella on May 28.
