Box Office

Uncharted reigns in its second week in theaters. In fact, this week’s box office seems like a deja vu all the way through sixth place, and there is not much shakeup in the rest of the German top ten, either.

Uncharted remains the #1 box-office earner in Russia: with just a 30 % drop versus its opening weekend, the first feature produced by Sony PlayStation Productions grossed 231 mln RUB ($3. 1 mln) for a total of 675 mln RUB ($9 mln) since its release last week.

Uncharted easily charted to the top of the box office and gave Tom Holland the number one and three slots with his Spider-Man: No Way Home swinging back to the race. Solidifying his status as a box office star, Holland claimed the box office crown with Uncharted, director Ruben Fleischer’s movie adaptation of Naughty Dog’s video game series of the same name.

37 million fans loved the Playstation classic ‘Uncharted’. No surprise then that the live-action film version played its way into the top spot, while Germany’s most successful movie of 2022 so far stuck to number two, and Sing 2 held its notes in third place.

The Covid cases go down, the box office figures go up. The Italian film industry is back on track and for the second week in a row box office grosses and audience numbers levitate.

Valentine’s Day weekend in the Russian box office has shown the best results since the start of 2022 while Uncharted is the highest-grossing release of the weekend. Released in Russia a week earlier than its US release date in 1,522 cinema theaters, Uncharted tops the Russian box office with 330 mln Russian Ruble ($4.

After two weeks with the same movies at the top of the Italian box office, the week from 07/02 to 13/02 saw a clear change in the ranking. Last week we wrote about the great expectations for the release of two movies: Death on the Nile by Kenneth Branagh and the first movie by the singer-songwriter Fabrizio Moro, Ice.

It was another “magically beautiful” week at the German box office: Wunderschön, the homegrown dramedy about four women of all ages by Karoline Herfurth topped the charts once again, just ahead of newest release Death on the Nile which beat two other debuts, Moonfall and Marry Me by, respectively, one and four spots. It has to be said that German-speaking people come in a close second to the Brits in their love for all things Agatha Christie.

Despite the studios’ counterprogramming with new films by Jennifer Lopez and Gal Gadot, the Super Bowl weekend – traditionally a slow period for filmgoing – stayed true to form. Death on the Nile, which marks the return of Kenneth Branagh as Agatha Christie’s beloved detective, Hercule Poirot since 2017’s Murder on the Orient Express, emerged on top even with only $12.

In the week that saw the Italian Parliament vote for the President of the Republic, confirming Sergio Mattarella for re-election, Italian citizens have evidently stayed at home in front of the TV, as the cinema box office grosses have dropped compared to those of the previous week. This week’s ranking only sees one film that exceeds the €500,000 mark (€556,949).
