So Rihanna is the reason for Home sales? I'm sorry but it's a kids movie these numbers are not surprising..
Well,
The only person I see in the US promo clips is Rihanna. (I doubt it id much different overseas as she is even bigger there)
Also, she is the lead characters.
The performance makes it the biggest ever DWA opener in the market outside of the Shrek franchise. By way of comparison, it was 113% higher than The Croods and 165% bigger than Despicable Me.
Meanwhile Fox/DreamWorks’ animated fantasy film Home also ended the weekend with a better than anticipated gross, $20.1M, up $1M from its previous estimate.
Well, good luck cause reviews are kind of dragging it and it seems the most fun aspects of the book itself are lost.
Quote:
[The CG visuals are bright and shiny and the pace endlessly frenetic, but it’s all as emptily overproduced as Rihanna’s characterless pop soundtrack contributions. Steve Martin has fun as the pompous Captain Smek, but this remains little more than colourfully inoffensive.
