Raya and the Last Dragon Remains Atop the Box Office In Second Weekend

Disney’s Animation’s Raya and the Last Dragon remains on top of the box office in its second weekend. Theaters are still seeing minimal traffic, with the film bringing in $5.5 million in its second weekend after a similarly slow start for the positively-review Disney feature. ComicBook.com‘s review of the film says, “Overall, Raya and the Last Dragon offers up everything viewers could want in not just a Disney film, but a film in general. Full of culture, nuance, beautiful animation, stellar performances, and a message of trust and of hope that feels more timely than ever, Raya and the Last Dragon is a fantastic film that is easily one of the best in years. There is something for everyone in Raya and the Last Dragon, no matter how different or distant we are.”

Tom & Jerry remains in second place after the live-action and animation hybrid got off to a stronger start during its opening weekend. Daisy Ridley and Tom Holland’s dystopian sci-fi movie Chaos Walking remains in third place.
