Denzel Snatches Victory from Jaws of Defeat! “Equalizer” Sequel Upsets “Mamma Mia” Sequel with the Win!

Denzel Washington and Antoine Fuqua Jr. originated behind today and took the weekend from Cher, Meryl Streep, and ABBA.

“The Equalizer 2” was the surprise weekend winner over “Mamma Mia: Here We Go Again.” Nicely finished Denzel, he beat the ABBA musical $35.8 to $34.3 million. All week the good money was on “Mamma Mia” all over Friday night. But “Mamma Mia” has a bit more drop off than expected on Weekend break.

The top six movies earlier this week were sequels, by the way. Yawn!

Many indie films did great including “Sorry to? Bother You,” “Blindspotting,” “Leave No Trace,” and “RBG.” But the Whitney Houston doc took a giant fall, from number 17 to 28. Roadkill Attractions pulled it from 291 theaters rolling around in its third week, ensuring its early death. To bad this time. But it’s too to obtain name calling again as of this time.

Meantime the Beatles’ 50th anniversary edition of “Yellow Submarine” is up to $683,000 in their third week.
