Liam Neeson continues to earn goodwill from audiences with another crappy actioneer that will do brisk business.  The other opener presents a real wild card: Son of God has huge advance sales, but I don't seeing it translating beyond its core audience like The Passion of the Christ did exactly 10 years ago.  (My, how time flies.)  I really can't believe the film is going to do what its going to do considering its just a shortened TV miniseries on the big screen.  And three months later, Frozen is still in the top 10.
