## Resource

Practical Magic 2 opened strong at the box office, snagging first place with $46 million globally — a modest return for its $75 million budget — but audiences loved it, giving it a B-plus. While reviews were lukewarm and critics weren’t impressed, fans, especially older women, flocked to see Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman reunite. Meanwhile, Spider-Man: Brand New Day continues its record-breaking run, The Odyssey becomes Universal’s highest-grossing film ever, and even Warner Bros.’ shelved flop Coyote vs. Acme is finding new life. Other releases like Runner and The Uprising underperformed, while Hope and Don’t Look Back in Anger quietly debuted.
