Friday Flicks: ‘The Final Year’, ‘Small Town Crime’, ‘Mama Africa’

It’s been quite the week at the box office, particularly for Sony’s evidently popular Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle. The Dwayne Johnson remake of the 1995 original continued to lead the show not only in domestic markets, but in China too where it launched into first place with $40 million. Compare this with Disney’s Star Wars: The Last Jedi, which although only being in its second week on Chinese screens, pulled in a measly $2.4 million – although with a worldwide total of $1.3 billion, the sting had little effect.
