'Dog Man' Tops Super Bowl Weekend Box Office with $13.7 Million

During the Super Bowl weekend, Universal/DreamWorks' animated film 'Dog Man' secured the top box office position for the second consecutive week, earning $13.7 million but facing a significant 62% drop from its opening weekend. The film has grossed a total of approximately $54 million against its $40 million budget. New releases struggled, with Sony's horror film 'Heart Eyes' debuting in second place with $8.5 million, while Universal's action film 'Love Hurts' managed only $5.8 million. Despite mixed reviews, 'Heart Eyes' received a B- on CinemaScore and maintained positive audience reception, whereas 'Love Hurts' suffered from poor critical reception with only a 16% Rotten Tomatoes score. Overall, the weekend box office numbers reflect a general decline in audience interest during this traditionally slow period. Upcoming competition from family-friendly films may further challenge 'Dog Man's' momentum.
