Kenneth Branagh’s *Death on the Nile* topped Super Bowl weekend at the domestic box office with $12.8-M as ongoing reluctance among older moviegoers to return to theaters.

Universal opted to abandon an exclusive theatrical release and launch its Valentine’s Day offering *Marry Me*, starring Jennifer Lopez and Owen Wilson, simultaneously in cinemas and on sister streaming service Peacock.

*Spider-Man: No Way Home* stayed high up on the chart to place #4 with $7.2-M for a domestic take of $759-M and global tally of $1.8-B, the Sony and Marvel superhero pic is now the #6 film of all time on the global chart.

The new Liam Neeson action pic *Blacklight* opened 5th with $3.6-M.

Overseas, Sony opened video game adaptation *Uncharted* in its 1st 15 markets. The movie, which opens domestically next wk, took in $21.5-M. Hopes are high for the film since its target audience have returned to the multiplex in full force.

At the specialty box office

Paul Thomas Anderson’s *Licorice Pizza* expanded nationwide following top Oscar nominations, including for best picture. The film earned $923,000 for a domestic total of $13.4-M.

Have some fun, see a movie in a theater this week, the chaos is about over, Keep the Faith!
