#CrossoverInsider – True Story Movies, Trailers, WIN@Crossover + MORE!
One of the major surprises at the 2015 box office opened on August 11th to much hype but tempered expectations. Would the R Rated True Story of a group of gangsters trying to make it big in the dangerous city of Compton resonate with theatre goers? The answer was a resounding yes. The 56 million dollar opening weekend blew past experts predictions; and it only grew from there simply dominating the box office for several weeks resulting in a stellar 161 million dollar final gross from North American theatres alone. After having watching the movie myself, I can understand why it was such a success. Straight Outta Compton is this week’s headline new release in a week that features a total of ten new movies;
