"John Wick: Chapter 4" bested all competition as the Keanu Reeves film finished $63.1 million ahead of the second-place film in its first weekend of release.

Again, a new release debuted atop the box-office weekend as "Shazam! Fury of the Gods" enjoyed a comfortable $13 million margin over second-place "Scream VI."

Given the success of its namesake, it is discouraging that "Shazam! Fury of the Gods" is equally, if not more, disappointing than previous entries of the DCECU.
