The Lego Batman
New York - Arab Today

The Great Wall” was a hit in China. In North America, it was a dud.
The most expensive film ever made in China and with a budget of $150 million, “The Great Wall” was intended to prove that the world’s No. 2 movie marketplace could produce Hollywood-sized blockbusters of its own. Though it ran up $171 million in ticket sales in China, “The Great Wall” pulled in $18.1 million in its North American debut over Presidents Day weekend, according to studio estimates Sunday.
That was good enough for third place, falling behind last weekend’s top two films, “The Lego Batman” and “Fifty Shades Darker.” The Warner Bros. animated release easily led the box office again with $34.2 million in its second week, sliding only 35 percent. Universal’s “Fifty Shades Darker” sold $21 million in tickets in its second week. The erotic sequel continues to play well overseas, where it led international business with $43.7 million over the weekend.
Slammed by critics, “The Great Wall” did not measure up to its initial ambitions. It was produced by Legendary Entertainment, which has since been acquired by Chinese conglomerate Wanda Group.
But “The Great Wall” is not a bomb. It has made $244.6 million overseas and performed over the weekend in North America slightly better than some pundits expected.
“This is absolutely a strategy that’s worldwide,” said Nick Carpou, distribution chief for Universal. “Worldwide, we are one of many markets.”
Universal could still claim four of the top 10 films, the other two being “A Dog’s Purpose” ($5.6 million in its fourth week) and “Split” ($7 million in its fifth week), so far the top film of 2017.
