Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning and Sinners Both Pass $350 Million at the Global Box Office as Lilo & Stitch Dominates

Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning and Sinners have both reached significant box office milestones, each surpassing $350 million globally this weekend.

Tom Cruise’s eighth Mission: Impossible film has now grossed $353.818 million worldwide, with strong word of mouth helping it sustain a 33% decline from its opening weekend. IGN’s review of Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning gave it a 6/10, stating: "The action thrills, but the soapy tone keeps greatness just out of reach for Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning."

Meanwhile, Ryan Coogler’s Sinners has reached $350.1 million after seven weeks in theaters. Remarkably, Sinners is the only film in the top 10 highest-grossing releases of 2025 so far that isn’t based on an existing intellectual property. IGN’s review of Sinners awarded it a 9/10, saying: "Ryan Coogler’s first horror movie expertly blends plenty of vampires and music into a compelling story about twin brothers – played by Michael B. Jordan – returning home to their Mississippi hometown in 1932." Disney’s live-action Lilo & Stitch, however, stands far above the rest, earning $610.8 million globally after just two weekends. IGN’s review of Lilo & Stitch gave it an 8/10, noting: "Lilo & Stitch is one of the stronger results of Disney’s non-stop remake campaign, taking the emotional core of the original and amplifying it in a stirring manner." The big question now is whether it will surpass A Minecraft Movie, which has now accumulated $947.1 million after nine weekends. Elsewhere, Karate Kid: Legends debuted with $47 million globally. IGN’s review of Karate Kid: Legends gave it a 6/10, adding: "Karate Kid: Legends has some fun additions to the usual formula for this series, including Joshua Jackson stealing the show from the series' stalwarts, but doesn’t connect emotionally thanks to some distracting filmmaking techniques."

The franchise-best Final Destination Bloodlines has now reached $229.3 million. And finally, Florence Pugh’s MCU film Thunderbolts—Marvel rebranded as The New Avengers shortly after its release—is at $369.6 million globally as it nears the end of its theatrical run.
