New York-By a quiet winter weekend at the box office, “Dog Man” by DreamWorks Animation has driven out his own tail, repeating the best film in theaters.

According to Studio, the animated release of the Universal Pictures, adapted from the popular series of Dav Pilkey graphics novel, collected $ 13.7 million in ticket sales, according to Studio estimates on Sunday. The two new releases – Ke Huy Quan’s action film “Love Hurts” and the Slasher on the theme of Valentine’s Day “Heart Eyes” – were left to bite the heels of “Dog Man”.

Hollywood often drops largely on the weekend of the Super Bowl on the small screen. Last year, “Argylle”, which was very tackled by Apple, made its debut on the same weekend. Instead, the cinema industry is more energy to present its blockbusters in trailers from the huge public in television.

It was not a banner weekend for “Dog Man”. He fell sharply, lowering 62% of the second weekend. But with a production budget of $ 40 million, “Dog Man” has already collected $ 54.1 million at the national level in two weeks.

The second was the second, “Heart Eyes” of the Spyglass Media Group, published by Sony. The Horror-Rom-Com Mashup has won $ 8.5 million out of 3,102 locations. The criticisms were good for the film, made by Josh Ruben and with Oliva Holt and Mason Gooding, although the public was less impressed. The moviegoers gave him a “B-” Cinemascore. Spyglass made “heart eyes” for $ 18 million.

“Love Hurts”, the action comedy of 87orth Productions (“John Wick”, “The Fall Guy”), made its debut with $ 5.8 million in theaters. In his first big role since his Oscar -winning return to “Everything All at Overy”, Ke Huy Quan plays a real estate agent in sweet ways with a killing past. Ariana Debose Co-Stars. He was also modestly budgeted at $ 18 million. The public, however, above all rejected the film, giving “Love Hurts” a “C +” cinemascore.

Next weekend is expected to bring Hollywood its biggest weekend at the box office of the year with the release of “Captain America: Brave New World” from Marvel and “Paddington in Peru” by Sony.
