'Pressure' Overtakes Spike Lee's Forgotten $45M WWII Epic at the Box Office

'Pressure' Overtakes Spike Lee's Forgotten $45M WWII Epic at the Box Office




Two Focus Features titles found spots on the domestic box-office top 10 list this past weekend. The first was Obsession, which witnessed another increase in revenue in its third weekend, and the second was a World War II-era counter-programmer that brought up the rear. The movie in question, Pressure, delivered a higher opening than that of last year's fellow WWII drama Nuremberg, starring Russell Crowe and Rami Malek. These movies appeal to older male audiences, who don't typically rush out to theaters on opening weekends. This gives them longer legs than, say, The Mandalorian and Grogu. Both Nuremberg and the new WWII movie have received near-unanimous acclaim from audiences; they currently hold identical "Verified Hot" 95% audience scores on the aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes.
