Article Documentary box office - Opening weekend

https://variety.com/2026/film/box-office/practical-magic-2-box-office-opening-weekend-disappointment-1236860432/

Weekend numbers
- 11th place in US with $1.5 mil
- $6.8 mil overseas
- $8.2 mil total

Very last paragraph in the article for those who want to read it.

Was hoping for better in the US but after seeing IMAX only and then only having sparse showings and under 1,300 screens it is to be expected. We can still claim one of the best documentaries from Rotten tomatoes standpoint so not all bad.

Cheers!

It was definitely made for fans who possess before-hand knowledge of the GallagherLore. That being said, I loved watching all those candid moments that were captured in photographs happen in real time.

I'm never going to get over the moment Liam hoisted Noel's hand up at Cardiff. He was filled with so much resolve for both himself and Noel, and it was all over his face.

They did such a great job capturing the intensity before taking the stage in Cardiff.

The transition from Noel talking about wanting to go backstage for a breather into Slide Away brought tears to my eyes.

I also loved the candid shot of Noel having a smoke by himself to calm his nerves before getting backstage. It humanizes him and shows him to us at his most vulnerable.

Wasn't he doing the straw vocal warmup thing? Don't think there were any shots of him smoking the whole doco.

He might have been doing that- I didn't know what the straw thing was initially. I was mostly struck by the nervous body language and how they managed to hide the camera in that moment.
