It's no secret that the first third of 2024 has been at best uneven as far as the box office goes. Ticket sales are lagging way behind this same point in 2023, in no small part thanks to movies like "Abigail" and "The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare" underperforming on the same weekend. Thankfully, the summer movie season is on the horizon and Hollywood, as well as theater owners, will hinge their hopes on a varied slate being able to sell an outsized number of tickets. That all begins next weekend with the release of Universal's "The Fall Guy." The question is, can Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt strike gold in the summer season once again after last year's Barbenheimer phenomenon?
"The Fall Guy" will be the first blockbuster to hit theaters in May, which typically ushers in the summer for Hollywood. Currently, the big-budget action/comedy is looking at an opening weekend in the $40 million range,...

Jack Reacher’s Alan Ritchson stars alongside a powerhouse cast in Guy Richie’s action-packed historical dramedy, The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare. Based on incredible true events, the film boasts names like Alex Pettyfer, Cary Elwes, Eiza González, Henry Golding, and – former Superman himself – Henry Cavill. While the ensemble cast shines, Ritchson was particularly struck by Cavill’s dedication. As the lead in his own show, Ritchson deeply understands the weight of being number one on the call sheet, and he praises Cavill’s leadership and work ethic: (Click on the media below to hear Alan Ritchson) https://www.hollywoodoutbreak.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Alan_Ritchson_Minstry_Henry_Cavill_Work_Expeirnce_.mp3 Don’t miss this star-studded, explosive retelling of a little-known piece of history.

Whew, it’s not even May, and the cinematic “body count” rises up considerably with another lone, determined warrior facing nearly insurmountable odds. I suppose this is more of the “John Wick” effect, as filmmakers try to “up the ante” and deliver a flick with near wall-to-wall frenetic action. So far this year we’ve gone from the spy showdowns of Argyle to the avenger of the elderly The Beekeeper, and winding up a couple of weeks ago with the manic Monkey Man. For this week’s thriller we’re sent to a near future time in an exotic foreign land as, in a nod either to old Variety newspaper headlines or the beloved ABC Tgif sitcom, Boy Kills World.
And it is a nasty dystopian world for the preteen boy (Cameron and Nicholas Crovetti), who is being trained in the jungle by the surly, “slave-driving” Shaman (Yayan Ruhian). And...

With ‘The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare’, Guy Ritchie returns to his storytelling roots, reminiscent of his earlier works like ‘Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels’ and ‘Snatch’. This film, while standing on the familiar ground of high-stakes, artistically violent narratives, uses a historically inspired backdrop unlike any other. A high-octane blend of fact and fiction dazzles as Ritchie applies his signature quick cuts and gritty aesthetic to the murky waters of WWII espionage. Rooted in True WWII Espionage Inspired by the real-life operations of Britain’s Special Operations Executive (Soe), known for their unorthodox warfare strategies during World War II, ‘The

Guy Ritchie is one of the most recognizable British auteurs, thanks to his bold narratives that are a kind of Quentin Tarantino-esque stories framed by British humor and set in a British working-class and criminal milieu.
However, despite his colossal contribution to pop culture, which rivals that of the aforementioned Tarantino, Guy Ritchie's films are far from box office success. While many of his films have indeed made huge sums of money at the worldwide box office, there are also plenty of absolute commercial failures despite warm reviews from audiences, such as RocknRolla, The Man from U.N.C.L.E. and the recent The Covenant.

This past weekend was, without a doubt, one that several studios and pretty much every movie theater around the country (and much of the world for that matter) would like to forget. Several new releases hit theaters, including Guy Ritchie's "The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare," as well as Crunchroll's latest anime film, "Spy x Family Code: White." It was, however, Universal Pictures' horror/comedy "Abigail" that was the most high-profile release of the bunch. While the film did perform better than the other debuts, it fell well short of expectations and further cemented a point that has been quietly lingering for some time: Vampires are not generally good for business these days.
"Abigail" opened to just $10.2 million, coming in second place over the weekend to Alex Garland's "Civil War," which pulled in $11.1 million in its second frame. Overall, it was one of the worst weekends at the box office in 2024 to date.

Guy Ritchie has directed everything from low-budget hits like the crime caper "Snatch" to the $1 billion monster hit that was 2019's live-action "Aladdin" remake. But the director has also been behind some pretty big misfires, most notably 2017's "King Arthur: Legend of the Sword." Ritchie has been on a tear lately though, releasing three movies in theaters over the last 13 months. Unfortunately for the filmmaker and all involved, every single one of those movies has disappointed -- if not outright flopped -- at the box office.
This past weekend saw the release of "The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare" in theaters in the U.S. Released by Lionsgate, the World War II film took in just $8.9 million, placing fourth on the charts behind "Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire" ($9.5 million), which was in its fourth weekend.

Alan Ritchson is currently raging as one of those actors in Hollywood whom fans just can’t get enough of. And the credit for such acclaim goes to his truly outstanding acting chops, coupled with his absolutely breathtaking physique. But despite this, the 41-year-old actor is yet to get approved by James Gunn to star as Batman in his upcoming version of the DC Universe.

However, while Gunn is yet to consent to his casting as the fan-favorite superhero, Ritchson has earned that commendation and high hopes from producer Jerry Bruckheimer, who couldn’t help but praise him for his magnificent onscreen presence. In fact, Bruckheimer is so impressed with the actor that he even expects him to become a big action star soon enough!

Quentin Tarantino may still stick to his fixed idea of having a 10-film-long filmography, but his legacy surely goes further with his short, yet impressive list of works, inspiring so many filmmakers across the world for their own cinematic steps.
However, it doesn’t seem to be Guy Ritchie’s case, despite the fact that the latter’s brand new movie has a major historical intersection with one of Tarantino’s finest works.
Though this suggestion wasn’t confirmed by Guy Ritchie himself, it was brutally shut down by Babs Olusanmokun who got to portray Soe agent Richard Heron in Ritchie’s spy drama The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare.
Talking to Cbr about the new movie and replying to the interviewer’s comparison, Olusanmokun stated that there’s literally nothing in common between The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare and Tarantino’s epic drama Inglourious Basterds — except for the fact that both films feature Nazis.

It was no secret heading into 2024 that it was going to be a bumpy ride as far as the box office was concerned. Last year's SAG and WGA strikes ended up delaying tons of movies, giving us a sparse release calendar this year. Well, the sad state of affairs reared its terrible head this past weekend, which was one of the worst of the year so far. The industry at large can only cross its fingers and hope against hope that it gets better from here.

An adaptation of Liu Cixin’s sci-fi trilogy, 3 Body Problem, is an ambitious project. However, Game of Thrones writers David Benioff and D.B. Weiss were up to the challenge. The source material is dense enough to make for compelling television and the first season would prove to be a new hit for Netflix as the show cracked the Top 10 on the platform. The series has received generally positive reviews, but our own Alex Maidy didn’t exactly love it. “I found it very hard to engage with this story, these characters, and this series,” Maidy wrote. You can check out the rest of Maidy’s review Here.

From a certain point of view, The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare star Eiza González may have just played the original real-life Bond girl.
Ungentlemanly Warfare, the first of González’s three Guy Ritchie movies to hit theaters, is loosely based on the recently declassified Operation Postmaster, chronicling Winston Churchill’s Special Operations Executive (Soe) and their covert mission to neutralize Nazi Germany’s U-boats during World War II. The efforts of these unauthorized commandos and spies helped change the course of the war, allowing the United States to then join the European Theater of Operations in 1942.
In the action-thriller, González plays Marjorie Stewart, a talented soldier-spy who’s equally gifted as a performer. Together with Babs Olusanmokun’s Heron, Stewart set up shop at the Nazi-frequented island of Fernando Po, where they communicated the Nazis’ latest comings and goings to their fellow Soe personnel, including a group of commandos that...

If there’s one thing everyone can agree on about Guy Ritchie, then it’s that he’s got a distinct style. Now, not everyone may like this style — but it’s always there and it’s impossible to miss either way. The director knows what he’s good at and goes at it tirelessly, pumping out new movies that rarely fail to cheer up the audience… Especially those who can’t get enough of Ritchie’s humorous action-packed films.

Guy Ritchie is indeed one of the most commended filmmakers in Hollywood, who has given some of the most cinematic masterpieces to audiences worldwide. But even he has one notorious habit that could lead the actors working on his projects to some serious trouble, just like what Eiza González almost ended up in recently while working on The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare with him.

This infamous habit is none other than his rule of thumb, which is basically to prepare to be unprepared while shooting, considering all the changes he makes on the spot with the dialogue and stuff. However, fortunately, González managed to escape the trouble while shooting this Henry Cavill-starrer through only one clever move she took while working on her accent for the film.

Though Guy Ritchie’s The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare did a bit better than it was predicted during its first weekend in the cinemas, everything still seems bad for the director’s highly anticipated movie.
The spy action comedy starring Henry Cavill was made with a clear intention to kick it off with the most impressive results given promising scores of 73% from critics and 94% from the audience — but now the chances are that the film won’t be able to break even.
Henry Cavill’s position may be the most fortunate here as The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare did outperform the actor’s most recent flop Argylle, but it still doesn’t make things better for the brand new movie being shattered by a very unexpected competitor.
Though it was foreseen ever since the first day of its release, Alex Garland’s Civil War is still dominating the box office...

While the film started positively by earning great reviews and ratings from critics and preview audiences, it looks like luck has run out for Cavill and Ritchie at the box office following its public release across the USA.

Henry Cavill’s The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare has been receiving mixed to positive reviews from critics, but the box office numbers appear very weak for the movie made on a $60 million budget. But fans are not blaming Cavill for having a bit of bad luck in theaters recently for the impending doom of the movie. While Guy Ritchie’s film needs a miracle to recoup its budget, the film couldn’t have made any more bad choices with its release.

For a second consecutive weekend, Civil War held the top spot of the box-office weekend, albeit by a mere margin of $0.9 million.
In its second week of release, A24’s Civil War brought in $11.1 million for the studio, to raise its overall total to $44.9 million. This proved just enough to best the Universal Pictures release Abigail which debuted in second place with $10.2 million over the weekend. Meanwhile, Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire was forced to third place where it added $9.5 million to lift its four-week total to $171.6 million for Warner Bros. Studios. The second debut of the weekend, The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare landed in fourth place where it made $9.0 million for Lionsgate Films.

Reacher star Alan Ritchson recently got to star in Guy Ritchie’s spy comedy The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare. The actor played the role of a real-life Danish soldier Anders Lassen, who was part of the special operatives executive, which was started by Winston Churchill during World War II. The film also starred Henry Cavill and Henry Golding.
Ritchson reportedly had a hand in designing and pitching some of the action sequences in the film. He mentioned how he and his stuntman Ryan Tarran would come up with interesting ideas based on the preparation he had done for the character, and pitch it to Ritchie. The actor specified one risky scene, for which he got his team to film for Ritchie to understand.

Things had been going so well at the box office over the past few weeks, so it was disappointing that none of the week’s three new wide releases made much of an impact. Read on for the weekend box office report.
Although Universal’s vampire thriller “Abigail,” directed by Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett (aka “Radio Silence”), had the best hopes of breaking out due to its cool horror premise and ensemble cast, Alex Garland‘s future shock thriller “Civil War,” starring Kirsten Dunst and Wagner Moura, was able to hold onto first place with $11.1 million, a drop of 57% from its record-setting opening for A24. The movie has grossed $44.9 million domestically so far, which already puts it in the top 10 all-time grossers for the studio after just 10 days.
Although horror tends to do quite well with younger moviegoers, “Abigail” and its cast, which includes Melissa Barrera, Dan Stevens, Kathryn Newton,...

One of the truisms in film calendar slating is that it’s a real plus to be the first new horror film released in a while. With the weak opening of Universal’s “Abigail” this weekend, the inverse also seems to hold.
The seventh wide release in the genre over the past eight weeks from a studio that has been quite reliable for sustaining horror success, from Blumhouse and elsewhere, fell short with only $10.1 million. That allowed “Civil War” (A24) to hold on to # 1 with $11.2 million despite a 56 percent drop.
With such a low gross at #1 and the rest doing less, the weekend struggled to reach close to $66 million. That’s the fifth sub-$70 million total out of 16 weekends so far this year. By comparison, pre-Covid 2019 — with ticket prices more than 15 percent lower than now — had none.
The weak performance, down nearly 50 percent from last year’s $127 million, brought the...

The battle of the box office has been won by A24 and Alex Garland’s Civil War, which defied expectations (ours included) to take first place at the box office. Comscore is estimating an $11.1 million weekend for the controversial film, which posted a modest 56% decline at the box office, which is way better than anyone was expecting. Indeed, the film has a $44 million running total at the North American box office, which is great for a movie like this, especially considering how divisive it’s been.
However, Civil War’s good fortune means this week’s big new horror release, Abigail, seriously underperformed. Radio Silence’s well-reviewed vampire flick made a disappointing $10.2 million, which is a shame as it’s a nifty little movie. Potentially, word-of-mouth could give it a boost, but let’s face it – that doesn’t happen with horror movies. They’re always front-loaded, so the chances...

Alex Garland’s dystopian political action film Civil War about an America torn apart triumphed over new vampire pic Abigail at the weekend box office.
Civil War held in well to stay No. 1 in its second weekend with $11 million for a healthy domestic total of $45 million for indie studio A24. The film has succeeded in uniting both blue states and red states.
Heading into the weekend, Universal’s Abigail was expected to take a bigger bite out of Civil War but instead opened to $10.2 million. That’s still a respectable number for a studio film that cost a modest $28 million to make before marketing.
Horror often struggles overseas, where Abigail only took in $5 million from 62 markets for a global start of $15.2 million,
Abigail is from Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett, the directing duo known as Radio Silence who were behind the reboot of the Scream franchise and the horror hit Ready or Not.

Henry Cavill’s role as Nazi-killing commando soldier, Major Gus March-Phillips in The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare required one unique training for his role. While Cavill killed it in the gunfire and action scenes acting like a madman with his tongue out, it was his twirly stylish mustache that needed training. It appears that the mustache was a more difficult job than executing the action scenes.

A24’s dystopian thriller “Civil War” conquered the box office again, fending off three new releases to retain the top spot on North American charts.
Alex Garland’s film, starring Kirsten Dunst as a photojournalist who traverses a violently divided United States, added $11.12 million in its second weekend of release. It has generated $44.8 million so far and already stands as one of A24’s top five highest-grossing movies of all time. With a $50 million price tag, it’s also the indie distributor’s most expensive film to date.
Though it was a close race, “Civil War” charged ahead of a trio of newcomers — Universal’s vampire horror film “Abigail,” director Guy Ritchie’s “The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare” and Sony and Crunchyroll’s anime adventure “Spy x Family Code: White” — which all opened to mixed results.
Heading into the weekend, “Abigail” was predicted to top the box office with $12 million to $15 million in its debut.

Henry Cavill is one of the most beloved Hollywood stars around at present. The Man of Steel actor has managed to win hearts with his acting chops just as much as he has with his charming personality. Moreover, he has become an idol of sorts to young boys, not just with his choice of roles, but with his actions too.
Cavill is a gentleman through and through, something that has been quite apparent since he broke out in the industry. He had a slip-up during the #MeToo movement, but other than that one instance, the British actor has been very respectful of everyone. Moreover, Guy Ritchie just confirmed what many have always felt about him: Cavill is chivalrous.

Revisiting Box Office Failure Of Prabhas’ Adipurush (Photo Credit –Facebook)
It happens very rarely that a film is surrounded by negativity right from the initial phase of promotion. Adipurush is sadly one such affair, which literally turned out to be a nightmare for the makers and those who were associated with it. Led by Prabhas, the magnum opus failed to recover even its budget by a big margin. Keep reading to know more!
Directed by Om Raut, the magnum opus based on the Indian epic Ramayana was officially announced in 2020. Initially, the film enjoyed a solid buzz around itself, but everything got spoiled when the first teaser was unveiled. Touted to be a big-screen extravaganza with never-before-seen visuals, the biggie disappointed viewers with its shockingly poor VFX and feel of an animated film.

Guy Ritchie’s The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare is now playing in theaters throughout the United States. However, the ensemble action romp, starring Henry Cavill, Alex Pettyfer, Eiza González, Alan Ritchson, Babs Olusanmokun, and Cary Elwes, is currently absent from UK and Canadian theaters. Lionsgate distributes The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare domestically. At the same time, Prime Video inked an eight-figure deal for international rights across Europe, Latin America, Anz, Canada, South Africa, India, and pan-Asian PayTV. So, what’s the deal with The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare’s international availability? Why won’t The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare get a theatrical release in these territories?
According to Yahoo!, The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare won’t screen in UK cinemas. Instead, the film will stream on Prime Video in territories like the United Kingdom and Canada, robbing certain areas of the big screen experience. It’s safe to assume that...

Ballerinas might look delicate, but there's a lot of strength behind those dance moves -- especially if the ballerina happens to be a vampire. "Abigail," the new horror flick from "Ready or Not" directors Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett, stars Alisha Weir ("Matilda the Musical") as a tiny dancer who turns on the criminal crew who were hired to kidnap her for ransom. Being an extremely gory cat-and-mouse game set in a grand mansion, "Abigail" shares a lot of DNA with "Ready or Not," and it's off to an even better start at the box office.
Variety reports that "Abigail" grossed $4 million on its opening day, including $1 million from Thursday night previews, and it's expected to make at least $10 million over its opening weekend. That's slightly behind earlier projections of a $12-15 million debut, but ahead of the $8 million that "Ready or Not" made over its first weekend. With Alex Garland...

With the sole exception of Zack Snyder, there might not be a director currently working who is more fascinated by telling stories about tough guys committing violent acts while barely breaking a sweat more than Guy Ritchie. From his earliest works like "Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels" and "Snatch" all the way to "The Gentlemen", "The Covenant," and "Wrath of Man," the British filmmaker has been all too happy to stay in his lane and pump out his unique brand of action movie year in and year out. This week's "The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare," however, might as well be the poster child for Ritchie's overriding obsession.

It looks like this weekend’s two big, original IP, new releases, The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare and Radio Silence’s Abigail, are struggling to find an audience at the weekend box office. While we predicted that Abigail might have a chance at cracking $20 million this weekend, the film will make closer to half that, with Deadline’s numbers suggesting it’ll likely only make about $10 million, despite decent reviews (including ours). Why is it struggling? It’s hard to say, but part of the reason might be that A24’s Civil War, which was last weekend’s box office champ, is having a better hold than expected. It’s looking like it will only slip about 57% in week 2, which is a surprise as everyone thought the B-minus CinemaScore and controversial premise meant that the film would be front-loaded. Rather, it looks like the film has become a must-see, with...

Henry Cavill is undoubtedly one of the greatest and most versatile actors in Hollywood, who has a career spanning from thrillers to action flicks and even television projects. While he is known for his prolific performance, improvisation isn’t something that we expect from Cavill. But you’ll be shocked to know how the actor improvised a couple of gleefully bloody scenes in Guy Ritchie’s latest offering.
Henry Cavill in The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare
Appearing in The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare, a story based on secret, real-life WWII commandos, Henry Cavill delivered a few Nazi-killing sequences where he is seen sticking his tongue out like a rock star, out of sheer happiness, every time he kills a German soldier. Well, that was apparently improvised by Guy Ritchie and Cavill.

It’s a close contest at the domestic box office, with the opening day gross of Universal’s ballerina vampire film “Abigail” leading Lionsgate’s fellow new release “The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare” and the second frame of A24’s dystopian thriller “Civil War.”
“Abigail” earned $4 million from 3,384 theaters across its opening day and preview screenings, making it the top performer of the weekend so far. But, after factoring out the $1 million that the horror film earned from screenings before Friday, it comes up behind A24’s “Civil War,” which was actually the top grosser for April 19, taking in roughly $3.3 million.
Meanwhile, Lionsgate’s “The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare” fired off about $3.7 million from 2,845 locations — a figure that includes $1.45 million across earlier preview screenings. All three films are eyeing weekend grosses in the low-teens or high-single-digits.

Chicago – “The Ministry Of Ungentlemanly Warfare” wants to be “Inglourious Basterds” in the worst way … but Henry Cavill is no Brad Pitt, and Guy Ritchie is no Quentin Tarantino. It’s a featherweight romp about British rogues killing Nazis that’s arch, witty, and completely forgettable. It goes down easy enough, but seems unlikely to inspire the love and devotion it so clearly craves.
Rating: 3.0/5.0
The film has a toehold’s basis in fact, focusing on declassified details of a secret group of colorful agents embarking on black ops for Prime Minister Winston Churchhill during World War II. Henry Cavill stars as the dashing leader of the group who are there to kill Nazis and look good doing it. He’s a handsome and well educated military man (and spy) who doesn’t play by anyone’s rules but his own, yet is devoted to King and Country all the same.
