Ride Or Die is Smith’s first theatrical test since his 2022 slap of Chris Rock earned him a 10-year Oscar ban.
This image released by Sony Pictures shows Will Smith, left, and Martin Lawrence in "Bad Boys: Ride or Die." Bad Boys: Ride Or Die, the fourth installment in the Will Smith-Martin Lawrence action comedy series, opened with an estimated US$56 million in North American theatres over the weekend, handing Hollywood a much-needed summer hit and Smith his biggest success since he slapped Chris Rock at the Academy Awards.
Given that Bad Boys trailed May disappointments like Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga and The Fall Guy – both of which struggled to pop with ticket buyers despite very good reviews – the Ride Or Die opening counts as a critical weekend win for the movie business. Ride Or Die added US$48.6 million internationally. Though reviews were mixed , audiences gave the film a high grade with an “A-” CinemaScore. Black moviegoers accounted for 44 per cent of ticket buyers, the largest demographic.
Last weekend’s top film The Garfield Movie, slid to second place. Also from Sony, the family animated comedy collected US$10 million in ticket sales over its third weekend, bringing its domestic gross to US$68.6 million.
