BOX OFFICE FORECAST

This weekend at the movie theaters, Dwayne Johnson and Chris Evans star with Lucy Liu and J.K. Simmons in a holiday-themed action movie. Debut revenue for Red One is projected to approach $35 million.

The PG-13 flick that cost $250 million has not impressed the critics. According to Rotten Tomatoes, Red One has earned one good review for every two middling ones. (34% Fresh)
