Since you can read my thoughts about Warm Bodies and Stand Up Guys here: February Preview, I'll try to not repeat myself too much. Very quickly: zombies learn to love, a group of con men team up again for one last job, and Stallone just tries to stay relevant.
As for the box office, Hoult should have no trouble shambling his way into first place. Guys is only getting a limited release from Lionsgate and therefore is likely to not do much better business than Walken's previous film (Seven Psychopaths), and Bullet will probably fare no better than The Last Stand, i.e. the Governator's failed attempt to restart his blockbuster star status. As for the recent holdovers, the Witch Hunters seem to be getting war weary, Jessica Chastain's box office luck has to run out eventually, and the rest of the well performing pack (Silver Linings Playbook, Django Unchained, Les Miserables Lincoln, and The Hobbit) should continue their slow yet steady declines.
So what did you think of my first foray into this new series of posts? Leave a comment to let me know if I should make any changes. Am I totally crazy for predicting that Bullet will be a flop? Share your thoughts in the comments for a chance at a lively debate!
Tune in next week to see Identity Thief and Side Effects go head to head!
