Weekend Box-Office: RALPH BREAKS THE INTERNET And Scores Second Largest Thanksgiving Opening Ever

The box-office estimates have arrived and it looks like this year's Thanksgiving weekend did not disappoint. Disney's "Ralph Breaks the Internet" and MGM's "Creed II" lead the pack with impressive numbers, while most releases from previous weeks continued to perform well. However, Summit's much maligned "Robin Hood" broke down completely in its opening weekend.

Directed by Steven Caple Jr., the boxing drama "Creed II" is a sequel to 2015's "Creed" and the eighth installment in the "Rocky" franchise. Michael B. Jordan reprises the role of Adonis Creed, the son of world heavyweight champion Apollo Creed, who in this new installment must face off against Viktor Drago (Florian Munteanu), the son of Ivan Drago (Dolph Lundgren) who killed Adonis' father in a tragic match and traded blows with Rocky Balboa (Sylvester Stallone) in the series' fourth installment.

The film also stars Tessa Thompson, Wood Harris, Russell Hornsby, Brigitte Nielsen, Milo Ventimiglia and Phylicia Rashad.

"Creed II" opened in theaters on November 21, 2018 and received a positive reception from critics.

In Theaters: RALPH BREAKS THE INTERNET, CREED II, ROBIN HOOD and GREEN BOOK

The Thanksgiving weekend has arrived with four new wide releases. For the general movie consumer, we have two sequels, Disney's "Ralph Breaks the Internet", which is a sure bet for kids, and the boxing drama "Creed 2", which is a sure bet for the kids' parents. Both films have received a glowing critical reception and will definitely dominate the holiday box-office.

Not so well received is the reimagining of "Robin Hood", which might actually be the worst film of the year, according to the reviews we've read so far.

Expanding nationwide this weekend is the biographical dramedy "Green Book" starring Mahershala Ali and Viggo Mortensen. This one looks like a serious contender in the coming awards season.
