Philippine Box Office Recap 27

To check out the previous recap click here and always reminders and disclaimers:
  • The following box office stats are from the ever awesome Box Office Mojo's Philippine Box Office Index. Thus, my box office comparisons and analysis are only limited to what Box Office Mojo has in its records
  • Studios and local distributors sometimes issues press releases about the box office performance of their movies and there are instances that they do not exactly match the data Box Office Mojo have in hand. I'm not sure how wide Box Office Mojo's scope is with our local theaters but for the purposes of a consistent discussion and analysis I will only focus on the numbers posted at Box Office Mojo.
  • I added some stuff like the Mission Impossible : Ghost Protocol box office for 2012 since Box Office Mojo does not include that 2011 holdover on their Top Movies 2012 list. Meanwhile the box office numbers for the holdovers from the MMFF last year are not on BOM's list so they're not on here as well.
  • Box Office Mojo does not have the numbers for Ayala Cinemas Exclusive My Week with Marilyn and local movie Gun Guni so it's not on the charts below.
The Mistress opens with a bang earning 106 million on its opening 5-day weekend! The latest John Lloyd Cruz-Bea Alonzo movie is the biggest opening for a local movie this year defeating the John Lloyd Cruz-Angel Locsin movie UnOfficially Yours which earned an excellent 71 million on its first 5 days. The Mistress also beats No Other Woman's 93 million opening last year. The movie is on  track for a P200+ million finish. Let's wait and see if this will have the legs to beat No Other Woman as the all time Filipino drama box office champ.

Also opening well is Resident Evil: Retribution which earned P64 million, stronger than the last installment (Resident Evil: Aftelife) which opened with 28 million in 2010 but it didn't have the advantage of 3D and IMAX releases.

Here is the latest Philippine Box Office tally as originally posted at BoxOffice forums
