Australian box office report: another Strange week at the movies, Lost City and Downton staying strong
Nice to see the new raunchy Aussie comedy How To Please A Woman has pleased cinema-goers, racking up a million in its first week of release. It’s sandwiched between long-staying Downton Abbey: A New Era and The Lost City in the country’s box office top four, with Downton earning another $841k and The Lost City getting $568k even in its sixth week of release.
Nothing can beat Marvel’s spooky juggernaut Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, of course, which used blockbuster sorcery to get $4.6 more millions. Still hanging in there are family-friendly options Sonic 2 and The Bad Guys, which nabbed another $482k and $412k this week respectively.
