“Bad Boys for Life” has smashed all predictions, bringing in $73.4 million its opening weekend, a big jump from the projected $38 million it was predicted to hit.

According to Variety, the third installment of the Smith-Lawrence action comedy will finish as Sony Pictures’ biggest R-rated opening ever and the industry’s second highest opening of all-time for the month of January, as well as Lawrence’s biggest opening. “Bad Boys for Life,” produced by Smith, Jerry Bruckheimer and Doug Belgrad, took in $23.5 million on Friday, $21.6 million on Saturday, $17.1 million on Sunday and a projected $11.3 million on Monday.

Smith and Lawrence also dominated rivals, taking in more than the combined total of the next three films — Universal’s launch of family adventure “Dolittle” with $29.5 million, the studio’s second weekend of awards contender “1917” with $26.8 million and Sony’s sixth frame of “Jumanji: The Next Level” with $12.8 million.

All we can say is – CONGRATS – and for those who haven’t seen it yet, grab a box of buttered popcorn and meet us at the movies!
