Todd Phillips’ The Hangover Part II got off to a rip-roaring start in midnight shows, grossing a whopping $10.4 million from roughly 2,600 theaters for Warner Bros. and Legendary Pictures.
Today, the raunchy comedy moves into a total of 3,615 theaters, the widest opening ever for an R-rated title.
Hangover II is expected to be the first movie of 2011 to cross the $100 million mark in its domestic debut. It’s got the advantage of a five-day opening because of the long Memorial Day weekend, coupled by going out on Thursday.
Here's a review of the movie.
I'm pretty confident saying that I think the Hangover II will be the highest grossing film of 2011. The first one was crazy and funny as hell, and the trailers of the second one look even crazier. All the controversy over the Mike Tyson tattoo only helped the movie.
I'm seeing it this weekend along with everyone else in the free world who wasn't free at midnight last night.
No way it's grossing more than Transformers 3. As much as the plot will suck people will go see it because of the hype and special effects.
