It took no mercy.
“Mercy” beat out all its box office competition on its opener Friday, raking in $5 million, according to The Numbers.
The sci-fi action thriller — starring Chris Pratt and Rebecca Ferguson, who play a police detective and an AI-generated judge, respectively — will “have you on the edge of your seat,” according to Deadline.
“Avatar: Fire and Ash” remained in the second spot, with sales of $1.7 million on its sixth Friday in theaters.
In third was the supernatural psychological horror “Return to Silent Hill,” with $1.6 million in revenue.
The third installment in the “Silent Hill” film series — which is based on a video game and cost $23 million to make — was slammed by IndieWire as “a nasty, claustrophobic display of staggering creative ineptitude.”
Disney’s “Zootopia 2” stayed in fourth with a $1.4 million take.
On Jan. 18, when it reached a total of $1.7 billion in global box office revenue, the zebra buddy cop comedy dethroned “Inside Out 2” as the highest-grossing U.S. animated film of all time.
“28 Years Later: The Bone Temple,” which was in first place last Friday, dropped down to fifth, taking in $1.2 million.
