‘Suicide Squad’ Defies The Odds; 150M Opening Weekend Projected

The Squad has landed and they are crushing the Box Office. Suicide Squad landed a B+ Cinemascore. This puts it in a better position with audiences than its DC Films predecessor. Batman v Superman landed a B Cinemascore and didn’t really sit well with the audiences. Squad is also doing better with females. It landed an A- CinemaScope with women. So, Suicide Squad just may have some luck.

Suicide Squad is currently blasting past low box office expectations. As of Friday night it grossed $65.1 million. It is projected to end up somewhere between $145 – $150 million. This is more than previous August release Guardians of the Galaxy and the recent February hit Deadpool.

What did you guys think of Suicide Squad? Sound off in the comments section.

It feels good to be bad…Assemble a team of the world’s most dangerous, incarcerated Super Villains, provide them with the most powerful arsenal at the government’s disposal, and send them off on a mission to defeat an enigmatic, insuperable entity. U.S. intelligence officer Amanda Waller has determined only a secretly convened group of disparate, despicable individuals with next to nothing to lose will do. However, once they realize they weren’t picked to succeed but chosen for their patent culpability when they inevitably fail, will the Suicide Squad resolve to die trying, or decide it’s every man for himself?

Suicide Squad is Directed by David Ayer and stars Will Smith as Deadshot, Jared Leto as The Joker, Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn, Joel Kinnaman as Rick Flag and Viola Davis as Amanda Waller.

Suicide Squad is in theaters everywhere now.
