Civil War debuts in top spot at weekend box office

Civil War, a story about America divided amongst itself under the control of a dictator, took first place at the weekend box office in its opening weekend.
New Mutants is cross between “Twlight” and X-Men . Pass see it at home. Acting is mediocre, effects are ok. Whole movie is bland.
Not much good to see yet, I’m waiting for the A Quiet Place sequel.
I went to see Unhinged, since it’s been out the longest. Great to finally get out and see a movie. Everyone obeyed the distancing orders, it was cool.
