TFR Ticker: Weekend Box Office Numbers
Chris Scalzo
Kevin Hart’s latest film won the weekend, but came in a little under expectations. Granted it had some solid competition. 22 Jump Street came in at #2, followed by How To Train Your Dragon 2. The other new film for the weekend was Clint Eastwood’s adaptation of the broadway hit, Jersey Boys. It performed weakly and garnered ‘meh’ reviews critically as it checks in at #4. Time will tell if the Jersey Boys has a slow burn and continues to build.
More underwhelming performances abound. How To Train Your Dragon 2 and Edge Of Tomorrow round out the disappoint-o-meter in Hollywood as all round box office performance is down roughly $52 million from last year. Though Jon Favreau’s Chef stays steady at #10. Go Mikey! Mikey’s the big winner!

How To Train Your Dragon XXX is a different film. Sorry about that, but the image was already printed.
