LOS ANGELES (Variety.com) - Alien invasion thriller “Arrival” capitalized on strong reviews to score an impressive debut, while Marvel’s “Doctor Strange” topped the box office for the second consecutive weekend.

　　综艺日报网站洛杉矶报道——外星人入侵的电影《降临》引起强烈反响，处女秀令人印象深刻;而漫威电影《奇异博士》则在连续两周的周末获得票房冠军。

　　The superhero adventure picked up $43 million to bring its domestic total to $153 million. DreamWorks Animation’s “Trolls,” another holdover, came in second, earning $35 million to bring its stateside haul to $94 million after two weeks of release.

　　这部超级英雄电影又收获了4300万美元的票房，这样美国国内总票房就达到了1.53亿美元。梦工厂出品的动画电影《魔发精灵》排名第二，收获3500万美元，在上映两周后将美国国内票房提升到了9400万美元。

　　“Arrival” took third, easily outpacing pre-release tracking with a debut of $24 million. Heading into the weekend, the film was expected to launch to $16 million. “Arrival” was directed by Denis Villeneuve, who has built a steady following with the likes of “Prisoners” and “Sicario.” It focuses on a linguist (Amy Adams) who is recruited to try to communicate with alien visitors. Paramount picked up domestic rights to the film for $20 million. FilmNation, Lava Bear and 21 Laps financed the $47 million production.

　　《降临》排名第三，首映票房为2400万美元，很轻松就超越了预发布的数字。该片预计到周末将再收获1600万美元。《降临》由丹尼斯·维伦纽瓦执导，这位导演已经凭借《囚徒》《边境杀手》等影片积累了稳定的粉丝群。该片讲述了一位被政府招募的语言学家(艾米·亚当斯饰)试图与外星来访者交流的故事。派拉蒙影业以2000万美元买下了本片的国内版权。电影国度公司、岩浆熊公司以及21圈公司投资了这部耗资4700万美元的电影。

　　“Arrival’s” strong box office result is a shot in the arm for Paramount, which has weathered a string of flops such as “Zoolander 2,” “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows,” and “Ben-Hur.” The instability starts at the top. Viacom, Paramount’s corporate parent, was engulfed in an internecine war for much of the past year, as Shari Redstone, the daughter of founder Sumner Redstone, successfully worked to oust Philippe Dauman from his perch as the company’s CEO. Paramount chief Brad Grey is trying to convince Shari Redstone that he has the vision to lead the company out of its doldrums, and has pointed to films like “Arrival” as proof that the studio’s slate is improving.

　　在《超级名模2》《忍者神龟2：破影而出》以及《宾虚》的接连失败之后，《降临》的高票房给派拉蒙打了一剂强心针。这种不稳定是从高层开始的。派拉蒙的母公司维亚康姆去年大部分时间都陷在“内战”的泥潭之中，创始人萨姆纳·雷石东的女儿莎莉·雷石东成功地把菲利普·道曼从首席执行官的位置上拉了下来。派拉蒙总裁布拉德·格雷想说服莎莉·雷石东他有带领公司走出萧条的事业，并指出《降临》作为证据，证明派拉蒙的眼光有所进步。

　　Universal’s “Almost Christmas” debuted to a solid $15.6 million across 2,376 locations for a fourth place finish. The comedy about a dysfunctional family gathering for the holidays after their mother dies was economical to produce and carries a $17 million budget. It stars Danny Glover, Gabrielle Union, Kimberly Elise and Jessie Usher.

　　环球影业的《迈耶斯家的圣诞节》首秀票房达到了2376个放映点的1560万美元，排名第四。这部喜剧电影讲述了一个疏离的家庭在母亲去世之后聚到一起度假的故事，拍的时候精打细算，预算只有1700万美元。该片由丹尼·格洛弗、加布里埃尔·尤尼恩、金伯莉·伊丽丝以及杰西·阿舍尔主演。

　　Liongate’s “Hacksaw Ridge” rounded out the top five, earning $10.8 million to bring the war drama’s total to $32.3 million.

　　狮门影片公司的战争片《血战钢锯岭》也跻身前五，获得1080万美元的票房，总票房达到了3230万美元。

　　Among the weekend’s other wide releases, EuropaCorp’s “Shut In” stumbled out of the gate, kicking off to a paltry $3.7 million from 2,058 locations.

　　在周末其他全面发行的影片中，欧罗巴影业的《入侵者》遭遇滑铁卢，2058个放映点只有370万美元的票房。

　　Sony bowed “Billy Lynn’s Long Halftime Walk” on two screens where it made $120,300. The Iraq War drama is shot at an accelerated framerate, but few theaters will be able to exhibit the film at that speed. The limited release did exhibit the picture in the immersive format that director Ang Lee has pushed theaters to incorporate. It was screened in 4K, 3D, and at 120 frames per second. “Billy Lynn’s Long Halftime Walk” will expand next weekend on to more than 800 theaters.

　　索尼的《比利·林恩的中场战事》刚刚放映两场，票房就已经达到了12.03万美元。这部反应伊拉克战争的片子采用加速帧率技术拍摄，但是很少有影院能以这个帧率放映电影。导演李安对这种限量放映的要求，促使各大影院升级成浸入式系统。这部影片是3D放映效果、4K清晰度，帧率为每秒120帧。到下个周末，《比利·林恩的中场战事》将登陆另外800多家影院。

　　In limited release, Sony Pictures Classics debuted “Elle” on two screens where it earned $56,012. The thriller stars Isabelle Huppert as a woman who plots revenge against the man who raped her.

　　在限量放映中，索尼经典影业的《她》只放映了两场，票房达到了56012美元。这部惊悚片的主演是伊莎贝尔·于佩尔，她扮演一位向强奸她的人实施复仇的女性。
