Liam Neeson’s ‘Honest Thief Topped the Box Office With Only $3.7 Million
By George Robbins
As we all know by now, movie theaters are in just a bit of a tight spot due to the state of the film industry as a whole right now. While films are still being worked on in the background, there are many films trying their best to release into the open market. Unfortunately, that market is just a bit volatile right now and releasing movies is just something that cannot be done properly due to constraints on the industry. Those constraints have a lot to do with the fact that people are now extremely wary of actually going out to public places like the movies during this period in time. There is nothing people want more than to be able to leave their homes but not when there is such a huge risk involved with doing it.
Movie theaters have been coming up with different ways to try and draw people in which include them coming up with new rules and regulations. These were all made so that they could try and get people to feel more comfortable about going to the movies. Unfortunately, this plan didn’t really work and people did not go out to the movies like they hoped they would eventually do. Even with the bigger releases, there was almost no business coming into the theaters and therefore, they have been in a steady decline for the past couple of months. Despite that, they can still manage to make some money hear and there when it comes to some new releases.
Among the new movie releases that have managed to still make their way into theaters was Liam Neeson’s newest movie, ‘Honest Thief.’ The premise of the film follows a thief trying to do the right thing by fighting back against corrupt authority figures. The movie itself is one that not many people have heard of, but for what it is worth, it took the top of the box office for this past weekend. Unfortunately, this means it only ended up bringing in $3.7 million for the entirety of the United States, but it is literally better than nothing right now. There is pretty much nothing going on now that many theaters have closed up again and we are just waiting for them to reopen their doors at a better time.
