This weekend will have a few questions associated with it. 1) Can Bullet Train avoid a huge second weekend plunge and will that be enough to overcome a weak set of new releases? 2) Will Diane Keaton still be able to open a geriatric comedy at the top of the box office in spite of such a hackneyed premise? 3) Will the wide expansion of horror film Bodies Bodies Bodies be able to ride solid reviews to a number one finish? It’s hard to say what answers we’ll get as it’s just as possible that the opposite answers are true, but I suspect the answers are 1) Bullet Train will get a solid second-week hold, but it won’t be enough to top the box office. 2) Keaton is not going to have a good weekend as her film fails to appeal to the youth demographic, but it will still have modest support from Keaton fans and seniors. 3) The originality of the Bodies Bodies Bodies idea should be enough to boost it to the number one finish in a tight competition with Bullet Train.

Wesley Lovell (WL): My fear of falling won’t let me see this film, though I’m not sure how it’s going to hang on for an hour and a half without losing paceโฆthen again, Frozen managed to do that with people trapped on a snow ski lift, so who knows. |

Wesley Lovell (WL): I like Aubrey Plaza, but this film doesn’t look like it uses her well and may be forcing her into a dramatic role without necessity. |

Wesley Lovell (WL): It might be an interesting coming of age story, but the trailer wears out the concept quickly, which doesn’t sound like much fun for the film itself. |
