Box Office: 'The Bad Guys 2', 'The Naked Gun' Fight 'Fantastic Four'

In-Depth Analysis

### Theatrical Releases

'The Fantastic Four: First Steps' continues to dominate the box office, although its second-weekend performance sees a notable decline. Despite positive reviews, the drop is drawing attention, especially compared to 'Superman'&ref=yanuki.com's hold in its second week.

'The Bad Guys 2' is making a splash, opening on the higher end of expectations. This sequel aims to outshine the original with an elaborate caper that draws comparions to Tom Cruise's work. The sequel also sees the return of original voice stars Sam Rockwell, Marc Maron, Craig Robinson, Anthony Ramos and Awkwafina, also featuring newcomers such as Zazie Beetz, Richard Ayoade, Alex Borstein and Lilly Singh.

'The Naked Gun' revival, starring Liam Neeson and Pamela Anderson, is also performing well, securing a third-place finish. Neeson stars as Lt. Frank Drebin Jr., trying to follow in his father’s footsteps.

Neon's 'Together', starring Alison Brie and Dave Franco, is targeting a sixth-place debut. The movie has some trouble shifting gears from shocking horror to laugh-out-loud comedy, but those tonal issues don’t take away from the fact that it’s a fun-enough star vehicle for two young performers.

### Streaming Highlights

'Final Destination: Bloodlines' makes its debut on HBO Max, delivering the expected thrills and gore.

'28 Years Later' becomes available for rental, offering a thoughtful take on the zombie genre. The film takes place 28 years after the events of the 2002 original film, '28 Days Later'&ref=yanuki.com'.
