"Mission: Impossible and Sinners Hit $350M Globally, Lilo & Stitch Leads"

Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning and Sinners have both achieved significant success at the global box office, surpassing the $350 million milestone this weekend.

Tom Cruise’s eighth installment in the Mission: Impossible series has amassed $353.818 million worldwide, bolstered by strong audience reception and a 33% hold from its opening weekend. IGN’s review of Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning scored it a 6/10, noting: "The action thrills, but the soapy tone keeps greatness just out of reach for Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning."

Ryan Coogler’s Sinners has reached $350.1 million after seven weeks in theaters. Remarkably, it stands as the only film in the top 10 highest-grossing movies of 2025 not based on pre-existing intellectual property. IGN awarded Sinners a 9/10, praising it as: "Ryan Coogler’s first horror movie [that] expertly blends plenty of vampires and music into a compelling story about twin brothers – played by Michael B. Jordan – returning home to their Mississippi hometown in 1932."

Disney’s live-action Lilo & Stitch remake leads the pack with a dominant $610.8 million globally after just two weekends. IGN’s review gave it an 8/10, stating: "Lilo & Stitch is one of the stronger results of Disney’s non-stop remake campaign, taking the emotional core of the original and amplifying it in a stirring manner." The big question now is whether it can surpass A Minecraft Movie, which currently sits at $947.1 million after nine weekends.

Newcomer Karate Kid: Legends debuted with $47 million worldwide. IGN’s review rated it 6/10, commenting: "Karate Kid: Legends has some fun additions to the usual formula for this series, including Joshua Jackson stealing the show from the series' stalwarts, but doesn’t connect emotionally thanks to some distracting filmmaking techniques."

The franchise-high grossing Final Destination Bloodlines has climbed to $229.3 million globally. Meanwhile, the Florence Pugh-led MCU film Thunderbolts—rebranded as The New Avengers shortly after release—has earned $369.6 million worldwide as it approaches the end of its theatrical run.
