Synopsis

One of those glamorous L.A. people with too much money and too much time on his hands, Zach looks like he's living the Hollywood dream. There's a steady stream of beautiful women coming in and out of his posh home in the hills, and every night he makes his way through the hottest nightspots for a party that never ends. A divorcée with a five-year-old son, Zach has become a master at seducing women without ever getting too close. But all that's about to change - he's met a girl he calls "Crazy Eyes", and she’s not like anyone he's ever met before. Flirty but withholding, intelligent but damaged, she's the one woman Zach can't have, so naturally he wants her above all others. While Zach's hard-partying lifestyle - aided and abetted by his bartender pal Dan - threatens to go off the rails, family concerns begin to play a major role in Zach's life. While his ex-wife becomes more financially demanding, Zach grows closer to their son, finding stability and maturity in his role as a father that's absent from the rest of his life. And as Zach begins to embrace fatherhood, his own father becomes seriously ill - which in turn leads to Zach's mother having a mental breakdown. Will the quest for love and the responsibilities of family life help this poor little rich boy become a man?

Per Theater Chart: Beasts Chase off Competition

July 10th, 2012

Beasts of the Southern Wild remained on top of the per theater chart with an average $19,687 in 19 theaters. It is very close to its first major milestone and it has a lot of room to grow. The Amazing Spider-man opened in second place with an average of $14,360. Two IMAX films bounced into the $10,000 club. Deep Space 3-D and Space Station earned $13,069 and $11,996 respectively.

Limited Releases are a Marathon and not a Sprint

July 6th, 2012

After several weeks of explosive limited releases, this week seems more subdued. That's not to say there are no limited releases that have a shot at finding an audience, but there's no film that seems likely to open with $40,000, $50,000, or more on the per theater chart. The Do-Deca-Pentathlon has the best chance of being a breakout hit, as it has the best hype. However, while the reviews are good, they didn't live up to the hype, which could hurt it at the box office. More...
