The film also has a 22% on Rotten Tomatoes, with critics calling it

After breaking box-office records with a string of $40 million openings, the studio released Paul Thomas Anderson's One Battle After Another, which just bolstered its status as the season's most formidable Oscar contender by sweeping the first week of precursor awards. And if, for some reason, One Battle stumbles before the finish line, the title that's best positioned to likely win in its stead is another Warner Bros. movie: Ryan Coogler's Sinners, which, like OBAA, has shown up everywhere it's needed to this season.

The reviews rolling out for Five Nights at Freddy's 2 are brutal, featuring F grades and one critic saying that "there's simply nothing of value here."

Its global total at the end of the weekend stands at $226m, considerably up on the $164.2m earned by its predecessor. The major change was in the domestic takings: while last year's film took more than double its initial take in the US $114m to $50.2m overseas this concluding instalment has corrected that overindexing, with $76m banked from international territories.

Jennifer Lopez is well-known for her pop career, but she has also been acting since the 1980s. Her lowest-ranked films, according to critics, are "Gigli" (2003) and "The Boy Next Door" (2015).

Jennifer Lopez has been a triple threat since she showed off her dance skills for "In Living Color" in 1991.
