Last Week’s Results
I think someone overestimated the appeal of aging action heroes. Not everyone can be Bruce Willis. Bullet to the Head collapsed under its own weight. Warm Bodies topped the charts as expected, but a strong holdover for Silver Linings Playbook shows the film is probably still going to be chugging on past $100 million eventually.
