This week there are two films opening up wide with a few others already in release getting theatres added since the Oscar nominations came out.
The first of the two new releases is, "The Mechanic" starring actions best star today Jason Statham. A remake of the 1970's classic Charles Bronson film, should open in the range of Statham's other films. Between $10-13M.
The second film coming out this weekend is, "The Rite". Starring Anthony Hopkins as a priest whom takes a young aspiring priest under his wing to teach him all about exorcisms. Currently rated 15% at Rottentomatoes look for this one to drop real fast after the initial opening week. But it is still a horrow film opening up on weekend without playoffs. A 3-day weekend take inbetween $17-20M may result.
