The seventh installment in the “Jurassic Park” franchise, “Rebirth” roared its way to No. 1, clawing in $26.3 million, according to The Numbers.
The Post called the film “another embarrassing dino retread” and bashed Scarlett Johansson and Jonathan Bailey’s characters as “some of the blandest” in the series.
This is the first foray into the prehistoric franchise for Johansson, who has been a fan since she laid eyes on its first installment, 1993’s “Jurassic Park.”
“I was really crazy about the film, and I slept in a ‘Jurassic Park’ pup tent in my bedroom I shared with my sister for a year,” she told Vanity Fair.
“Anytime the trades would report a new ‘Jurassic’ movie, I would forward to my agents like, ‘Hey, I’m available.’”
The action sci-fi flick — the fourth in the “Jurassic World” series — was released on Wednesday, and projections for its five-day earnings through the weekend are topping $141 million.
“F1: The Movie” downshifted to second place, after spending its opener last Friday in first.
The sports drama, starring Brad Pitt as a Formula One driver, earned an estimated $144 million at the international box office over its opening weekend.
It is now the biggest opening weekend for the Oscar-winning actor in his 37-year acting career.
In an interview with the F1 Beyond The Grid podcast, Pitt said he would like to see a sequel to the movie — which was filmed during the 2023 and 2024 F1 seasons, with scenes shot at real Grand Prix events.
“Absolutely. It’s such an audacious idea and I cant think of any other film that that’s ever happened. To allow us to embed ourselves into the racing season. I had the time of my life,” Pitt gushed on the podcast.
“How to Train Your Dragon” moved down a notch to third, with sales of $2.88 million on its fourth Friday in theaters.
Disney and Pixar’s “Elio” remained in fourth with a $1.5 million take.
The zombie thriller “28 Years Later” continued in fifth place, with sales of $1.15 million.
