Cinema: box office, last weekend of the party closes at -21%

(ANSA) - ROME, JAN 10 - The last weekend of the Christmas holidays closes with a minus sign. Despite the day of the Befana, box office receipts went down compared to the previous week, perhaps also penalized by the increase in coronavirus infections. Over the weekend, therefore, the total collection amounted to just over 5 million (5,048,687) against over 6 million seven days earlier (6,380,925), with a drop of 21%. The comparison with the same period of 2020, pre-pandemic, when the collection was 13 million 712 thousand euros (-63%) is pitiless. The top ten follows that of the previous days with Spider-Man leading the ranking with 922 thousand euros at the box office (and a total of almost 22 million euros in four weeks, leaving all the others behind),followed on the podium by BelliCiao by the comic duo Pio and Amedeo with 757 thousand euros (2.2 million in two weeks) and by the film loved by children Me Contro Te with 720 thousand euros (2.2 million in two weeks). MatrixResurrections permanently occupies the fourth place with 585 thousand euros in receipts (1.8 million in two weeks).

    The King's Man enters the ranking in fifth position with the chapter on the origins of the independent intelligence agency that in 5 days on the big screen collects 557 thousand euros.

The second and last new entry of the week is, in ninth place, the multi-award-winning A hero of the Iranian Asghar Farhadi who brings 214 thousand euros home in 7 days.

    Also in the ranking House of Gucci, sixth with 4.6 million in four weeks, Sing 2 - increasingly stronger, reaching 2 million in three weeks and seventh ahead of Luca Marinelli's Diabolik, which reaches 2.5 million in four weeks.

Closes the comedy LaBefana vien di notte II - The origins with 456 thousand euros fifteen days.
