Wonder Woman did what it needed, and hopefully will be leggy from here on out. The Mummy kicks off the "Dark Universe" franchise with what looks to be a big whimper. It Comes At Night is A24's third (I think?) film to open wide immediately. Reviews are terrific, but it'll probably fall into that category of acclaimed horror that plays better with critics than audiences. Megan Leavey could turn into a little sleeper, but it probably won't have a strong enough opening. My Cousin Rachel opens in around 500 theaters. Reviews are decent and the film is being advertised in a mainstream way, so it might do ok.
