But unlike all the other civil rights bio-pics, this one centers on interracial love, the … Continue reading Loving (2016) Review!!!

The weekend didn’t quite turn out as Mojo had forecast as the top twelve grossed a combined $149.4 million compared to Mojo‘s forecast, which foresaw the top twelve grossing over $180 million. Part of the blame lay on an over-estimation of the weekend’s top new release, Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, which did deliver a solid #1 opening, but couldn’t match Mojo‘s lofty expectations.
