‘Karate Kid: Legends’ Review: Two Franchises, One Sequel

Venom: The Last Dance is having a hard time getting on base at the domestic box office, where it’s coming in well behind an expected $65 million opening after a soft Friday. At this pace, Sony shows the threequel opening to $52 million from 4,131 theaters.

Some are pinning the blame on competition from the World Series showdown between the Los Angeles Dodgers and New York Yankees. Grosses were definitely impacted in L.A., but New York actually over-indexed. Insiders close to the film are also worried people are distracted by early Halloween parties. It’s not uncommon for threequels to fall off, but no one on the Venom team is happy about the severity of the decline.

In North America, the first Venom opened to $80.2 million in 2018, then a record for October. It lost the crown a year later to Joker ($96.2 million). Let There Be Carnage debuted in October 2021 to $90 million, a boon for theater owners who were still recovering from the pandemic and a major win for Sony.

Overseas is a different matter, where The Last Dance is expected to come in ahead of expectations with $128 million for a global start of $180 million, five percent ahead of the sequel, and including a hearty $45 million from China.

Venom: The Last Dance is assured of coming in No. 1 domestically and globally. Its budget was a reasonable $120 million before marketing.

The series has never been a hit with critics, as the latest installment landed on Rotten Tomatoes with a 37 percent critics score. The latest film earned a franchise-worse B- CinemaScore from audiences.

Directed by Kelly Marcel, Venom 3 stars Tom Hardy, who returns in the titular role. Hardy also co-wrote the script with Marcel, his longtime creative partner, who makes her directorial debut with the feature.

Paramount and Temple Hill’s Smile 2 is holding well in its second outing and is headed for a second-place finish with $10.3 million for a 10-day domestic cume of $41.6 million.

Headed for third base is Edward Berger’s Oscar contender Conclave, the weekend’s other new nationwide opener. The acclaimed Vatican-set thriller about the election of a new pope is on course to open to an estimated $6.5 million from 1,753 cinemas, the best showing to date for a specialty film vying in this year’s awards race.

Produced and financed by FilmNation and Indian Paintbrush, the movie’s all-star cast includes Ralph Fiennes, Stanley Tucci, John Lithgow and Isabella Rossellini. Focus Features is distributing the film.

Numbers will be updated Sunday morning.
