Does anyone know what this multiplier is???????????????????????????? About 3.2. That's with all the #s rounded though. It would give Sin City $93.1M, but Dimension will push this over $100M if it gets that close.

SAHARA 60%. 5 Reviews.
"This is a big, lively romp, filmed in a lushly expansive epic style even though it's basically low-rent James Bond." -- Rich Cline, SHADOWS ON THE WALL
"A blockbuster played by action figures and written by children." -- Walter Chaw, FILM FREAK CENTRAL
"As Hollywood actioners go these days, this one’s quite tolerable in its guilty-pleasure way. Feel free to saddle up." -- Peter Canavese, GROUCHO REVIEWS
"Think Of This As Dirk Pitt Light - With None Of The Patriotism, Conservative Social Commentary Nor American Heroism Typical In A Cussler Novel." -- Fiore Mastracci, OUTTAKES WITH FIORE
FEVER PITCH 44% 9 reviews:
"Where’s Adam Sandler when you need him!?!" -- JoBlo, JOBLO'S MOVIE EMPORIUM
"This is one of the best movies I’ve ever seen about what it means to be a diehard fan." -- Richard Roeper, EBERT & ROEPER
"Obsessed fans, you’ve won no converts. " -- Victoria Alexander, FILMSINREVIEW.COM
"Fever Pitch is not just some comedy about two people meeting each other halfway, but something greater: a statement about the wheeling and dealing of a tradition." -- Ed Gonzalez, SLANT MAGAZINE
WOW to that Ebert Review for FEVER PITCH. That's SO going to be on the dvd cover. lol.
As the reviews for Fever Pitch, surprising, continue to go down after some people sneak previews and early reviews.
Is Fever Pitch a much better movie for baseball / sports fans???????????

Fever Pitch is getting alot of different reviews - both high and low.
Still wonder if the split is on the baseball / sports fan talk.

Beauty Shop $6,70
Robots $6,60
Miss Congeniality 2 $4,90

HA! SAHARA is currently 42% ROTTEN while FEVER PITCH is 66% FRESH at Rotten Tomatoes. Seems like FEVER PITCH is the one to see of this weekend's new wide releases. I hope it can beat it at the Box Office too. It looks pretty enjoyable and SAHARA looks really stupid.
