While people cannot stop talking about A Minecraft Movie, North America witnesses new releases, and they are also achieving remarkable feats at the box office. Rami Malek’s spy film The Amateur has earned 20th Century Studios a notable achievement with its opening-day collection. Scroll below for the deets.
The spy film is packed with action and was directed by James Hawes. It is based on the novel by the same name written by Robert Littell. Led by Rami Malek, the movie has an impressive cast, including Rachel Brosnahan, Caitríona Balfe, Michael Stuhlbarg, Holt McCallany, Julianne Nicholson, and Laurence Fishburne.
The Amateur was released in the United States by 20th Century Studios on Friday with favorable ratings on Rotten Tomatoes. The critics, giving it 61%, said, “Rami Malek is a compellingly unconventional action hero in the otherwise formulaic The Amateur, which dispenses justice with solid execution but a curious lack of emotional stakes.” The viewers are enjoying it more than the critics, awarding it a solid 89%.
