- ‘Godzilla Minus Zero’ topped this weekend’s box office.
- ‘The Cat in the Hat’ was second.
- The highest holdover was ‘You Can See Everything’ in fourth.
It’s somehow fitting that it was big formats –– IMAX and the like –– that powered the giant beastie-featuring ‘Godzilla Minus Zero’ to box office success this weekend.
Takashi Yamazki’s follow-up to his 2023 ‘Godzilla Minus One’ earned $32 million for its opening, driven by solid reviews and plenty of goodwill from that previous release.
In second place was the latest Dr. Seuss adaptation ‘The Cat in the Hat,’ an animated take on the chaotic feline, which landed with $20 million.
