Info in Movie News | Ryan Coogler and Michael B. Jordan can make a great success again at the box office because of Sinners, a terrible time horror film that has a faster and faster box office sensation. Earning more than $48 million in the US, the film has got the best figure of the majority of the horror movies R-rated in the period after the outbreak of the pandemic, thus, it has surpassed A Quiet Place: Part II and the predictions of movie destiny.
According to Collider, the film is “an electric spectacle” filled with energy and visual storytelling at its best. Coogler, known for his work on Black Panther and Creed, is being praised for his confident direction and fresh approach to horror. Sinners holds an impressive 98% critic score on Rotten Tomatoes and a 97% audience score. It’s also the first R-rated horror film since the pandemic to earn a coveted “A” grade from CinemaScore, an especially rare feat in this genre.
Currently, the movie has collected more than $60 million across the globe already and by the second weekend, it is supposed to recover the $90 million it cost to make it. By the looks of it, Coogler is already on his way to ending up with one more major success.
What makes Sinners stand out even more is its presentation. Shot on traditional film stock and screened in select theaters using IMAX 70 mm projectors, the film aims to be a full cinematic experience, something we haven’t seen since Oppenheimer.
Given the setting of the year 1932 in Mississippi, Sinners talks about the story of twin brothers (both portrayed by Michael B. Jordan) who are coming home, and then are met with sinister forces putting the town in doom. The movie really pops thanks to the participation of Hailee Steinfeld, Delroy Lindo, Omar Miller, and Jack O’Connell.
Based on recent reports, there is no official confirmation that a sequel to Sinners is currently in development. While the film's mid-credit scene hints at potential future storylines, director Ryan Coogler has indicated that he did not initially plan for a franchise. He preserves his rights to Sinners, therefore, any sequels that could be created in the future would have the same creative freedom. However, to this day, no follow-up has been announced.
With strong audience buzz, critical acclaim, and premium theatrical rollout, Sinners is shaping up to be more than just a horror hit, it’s a defining moment in Coogler’s career and a reminder of the genre’s untapped potential when given the blockbuster treatment.
