Box Office: John Krasinski’s ‘IF’ Debuts at No. 1 With Soft $35 Million

John Krasinski's "IF" fell slightly short of box office expectations but still topped the North American charts.

Steve Carell, Matt Damon, Maya Rudolph, Emily Blunt, Bradley Cooper, Jon Stewart and George Clooney round out the star-studded voice cast of IFs. Reviews have been mixed (it has a 50% on Rotten Tomatoes), with Variety’s Tomris Laffly calling it “a sweetly old-fashioned yet messily conjured children’s tale that sadly falls short of its thematic ambitions.” Later in the summer, Reynolds and Hugh Jackman’s “Deadpool & Wolverine,” Universal and Illumination’s “Despicable Me 4” and Disney and Pixar’s “Inside Out 2” will attempt to salvage popcorn season and fill seats at multiplexes.
