Angelina Jolie takes the last piece of May movie cake, as she tops the box office with the untold story of “Maleficent.” Disney worked their story-telling magic and pulled in an estimated $70 million over the weekend in ticket sales. Jolie was mesmerizing as a fairy filled with vengeance and may I also add that she pulled off the comedic lines quite well.
Unfortunately, the same could not be said for Seth MacFarlane’s “A Million Ways To Die In The West,” which only debuted with half of what “X-Men: Days Of Future Past” brought in during their second week of showing. It’s now summer movie time, which means endless blockbusters. That being said, it’s doubtful to see a movie hold the number one spot for more than one week. After you hit the theaters make sure to send a tweet over to THEPOFPIX of your movie review, and you might just see it up on our site!
