New Movies this week: Jonas Brothers, Street Fighter
It’s not an exciting week for films – unless you’re a 12-year old girl, and then the new Jonas Brothers: The 3D Concert Experience film will be right up your alley. The Jonas Brothers film should soar to the top of the box office with only one other new film available nationwide – Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li (just rolls of your tongue, doesn’t it). Watch for some holdovers to continue to do well, including Tyler Perry’s Madea Goes to Jail and Coraline. Not sure how well Taken and He’s Just Not That Into You will hold up, but they should be in the top 10, along with the incredible Paul Blart. We should also see a surge (how big, not sure) with Slumdog Millionaire after it’s Oscar coming out party.
Here’s this week’s new films:
Jonas Brothers: The 3D Concert Experience – The early buzz is nothing special, but that won’t matter for this film. It’ll open huge, playing in premium priced theaters, and rake in a ton.
Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li – The film wasn’t screened for critics, which is rarely a good sign. Early word is that it’s what you expect – bad. Not just bad, but really freaking bad. Here’s a review from aint-it-cool-news that sums up a lot of the talk.
