BOX OFFICE

Marvel's Ryan Reynolds-starrer earned an 84% at Rotten Tomatoes (with a 96% audience score) and an A CinemaScore. With $135m, this is Reynolds' biggest bow to date.
As for the other Top 5 debuts, How to Be Single fell just short of expectations and garnered lukewarm reviews, while the long-awaited Zoolander 2 was torn apart by critics and audience members alike.
