NEW YORK — The Blumhouse evil-doll horror film “M3gan” got off to a killer start, debuting with $30.2 million in ticket sales, according to studio estimates, while “Avatar: The Way of Water” continued its box-office reign in the top spot.
Audiences gave the PG-13 film a “B” CinemaScore — though reviews were stronger for the modern, techy twist on a “Child’s Play”-like thriller. It added $10 million internationally. Cameron’s sci-fi spectacle has now surpassed $500 million domestically and $1.7 billion globally. After dominating the otherwise lackluster holiday corridor, the “Avatar” sequel is nearly matching the original’s pace; the 2009 “Avatar” scored $50.3 million in its fourth weekend. “The Way of Water” already ranks as the seventh highest-grossing film ever, not accounting for inflation — a total particularly owed to its strong overseas performance. The film’s $1.
