Sinners devastates its premiere in the USA.
In their first weekend, sinners have raised 45 million dollars in the United States, exceeding all expectations and demonstrating that there is still space for original cinema, adult and with their own identity in the era of the blockbuster dominated by IPS.
To this figure are added additional 15 million at the international box office, which raises its global total to 60 million dollars in just three days. Everything indicates that mouth mouth will continue to drive its success in the weeks to come.
A story with soul, set in the deep south
The film is set in the Mississippi of the 30s and tells the story of Smoke and Stack, two twin brothers who try to start from scratch after a life marked by violence. Both are interpreted by Michael B. Jordan, who offers a double performance that already sounds like a candidate for the awards season.
The official synopsis describes: “Trying to leave their problems behind, the twin brothers Smoke and Stack return to their hometown to start over, just to discover that an even greater evil is waiting for them to welcome them again.”
What begins as a social drama loaded with racial tension soon gives an unexpected turn towards the supernatural, with elements of vampiric horror and deeply symbolic social criticism. It is a unique proposal, which does not resemble anything on the billboard.
A brilliant cast led by Michael B. Jordan
In addition to Jordan in a double role, the cast includes thousands Caton in his impressive debut such as Sammie, a young key musician for the narrative turn; Saul Williams as an enigmatic mentor; Jack O’Connell, disturbing as Vampirico RemMICK leader; Andrene Ward-Hammond, Tenaj L. Jackson and Hailee Steinfeld, completing a diverse and forceful cast.
Criticism and public they cheer on it
With a 98% approval in Rotten Tomatoes, sinners are positioned as one of the best valued films of the year. Criticism has praised the risky direction of Coogler, Jordan’s powerful performance, and especially the central sequence that mixes African -American musical tradition, mysticism and terror, all in a single shot.
Many analysts already describe it as a “instant classic”, and predict that its success will only grow over the weeks.
Minecraft goes down to second place, but it is still unstoppable
Although this week gives first place at the American box office, the Minecraft movie continues to sweep globally. It has already reached 344 million dollars in the United States and 376 million in the rest of the world, adding a global total of 720 million dollars since its premiere.
The adaptation of the popular video game, thanks to his visual style faithful to the original, his humor and family approach, has become one of the strongest successes of 2025. Their performance proves that, when the roots of the original material are respected, even video games can become cinematographic phenomena.
Snow White collapses and leaves Disney losses
At the other extreme, the new Live-Action of Snow White has failed to connect with the public. The film has fallen to the tenth position of the American box office and has only 184 million dollars worldwide.
With an estimated budget at 250 million, without counting marketing expenses, Disney losses are evident. This fall reinforces the idea that Live-action remakes have lost their impact and that the public is beginning to look for new, different and their own identity.
What tells us this box office of the future of cinema?
The numbers of this weekend make clear several trends. First, the public is still willing to fill the rooms to see original stories with thematic depth and film quality, such as sinners.
Secondly, video game franchises continue to consolidate their place in the industry, as evidenced by Minecraft, Sonic or Super Mario Bros.
And thirdly, the worn formulas of remakes without a soul, such as Snow White, are losing traction even among the most faithful public.
