Final Reckoning and Sinners Hit $350M as Lilo & Stitch Reigns

Both "Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning" and "Sinners" have crossed significant milestones at the global box office, each surpassing $350 million. "Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning," featuring Tom Cruise, has grossed over $353 million, benefiting from positive audience feedback with a slight 33% drop from its opening weekend. Meanwhile, Ryan Coogler's horror film, "Sinners," has earned around $350 million, standing out as the only non-IP film in 2025's top 10 highest-grossing films. Despite the competition, Disney's live-action "Lilo & Stitch" dominates with an impressive $610.8 million after just two weeks. Other films such as "Karate Kid: Legends" and the latest "Final Destination" installment also contribute to the box office landscape. Viewer anticipation surrounds whether "Lilo & Stitch" can rival "A Minecraft Movie," which has reached $947 million.

Yes, the franchise is likely to continue, especially if Tom Cruise remains involved, but opinions on new leadership vary among fans.

The "Mission: Impossible" series is known for its high-stakes action sequences and intricate plots, showcasing Tom Cruise's commitment to performing his own stunts. This installment marks the eighth entry in the franchise, which has evolved into one of Hollywood's highly successful action franchises. In contrast, "Sinners" represents a fresh foray into horror from acclaimed director Ryan Coogler, blending music and supernatural elements while exploring deep themes through its narrative. The audience's responses to these films reflect a growing interest in innovative storytelling within established genres.
