Pets Rule As Ghostbusters Get Off To Decent Start And Bryan Cranstons Drug Bust Movie, The Infiltrator, Is...Well, A Box Office Bust


Who ya gonna call? For audiences across the country, the answer was their pets, as The Secret Life Of Pets continued to rule at the box office, dropping 52% from its massive opening weekend for a $50.5 million cume bringing its domestic total to $203 million in just ten days. That's a harsher second-weekend decline than past summer animated movie hits like Despicable Me (which lost 42%), Inside Out (which also lost 42%) and even last month's Finding Dory (which lost 46%) which grossed $33 million more on its opening weekend. That's really only a minor point to make considering the gigantic numbers Pets is putting up and it should have no trouble crossing $300 million domestically in no time. Prepare for at least twenty more Pets movies folks.

The Infiltrator Review

Is Bryan Cranston just choosing his roles now depending on how much deceit his characters must exude? After playing Walter White for five excellent seasons on Breaking Bad, he's played Dalton Trumbo, a man who wrote screenplays in secret, and now, in his newest motion picture The Infiltrator, Cranston plays Robert Mazur, a man who regularly does undercover work (see where the deceit comes into play in this past?) for the U.S. Government. After a mission leaves him with a particularly nasty injury, he has the chance to retire...but he can't give up the chance to partake in a new mission that could take down tons of high-profile figures in the world of drug trafficking.
