Perhaps if America hadread our review of theMax Paynefilm, this wouldn’t have happened.
Reutersis reporting that the film adaptation ofMax Payne, starring Mark Wahlberg and Mila Kunis, topped the North American box office this weekend. Raking in $18 million during its opening weekend,Max Payneovertook Disney’s brilliantBeverly Hills Chihuahuaat No. 2 andThe Secret Life of Beesat No. 3. Oliver Stone’s George W. Bush biopicWdebut this week at No. 4, bringing in a decent $10.6 million, but falling short of expectations.
So what were you guys seeing this weekend? Was ourdismal review ofMax Payneenough to scare you away from the sticky floors of your local theater? I have to be honest, despite rotten reviews across the board (particularly from gamers), I’m still interested in checking outMax Payne… for the same reason I slow down to see a fender bender. Or a horrific motorcycle accident.
