Quote

Summit Entertainment/Codeblack Films’ Traffik, from director Deon Taylor and starring Paula Patton, Omar Epps, Roselyn Sanchez and Laz Alonso, will open wide on April 27. Patton plays an investigative journalist who, during a romantic getaway with her beau, encounters a gang involved in sex trafficking. Their weekend becomes one of survival as they’re caught in the cross hairs. Currently, the movie is the only wide release on its date.

Sex trafficking is something that people need to be aware about. Sure, people might peg this as similar to Taken, but I'm rooting for the film's success.

Of course this is my birthday movie.  Of course.

The film currently has its weekend all to itself. You never know, it might surprise a little bit. I mean, this is like Get Out meets No Good Deed. I'm eager to see what happens to it.

I read the title and initially assumed this was a remake of the Soderbergh film.

They show the entire plot in these trailers for thrillers.

[That One Girl]

Rated R for violent and disturbing material, language throughout, some drug use and sexual content

prediction assuming 60% of the PTA for I Feel Pretty, and I Feel Pretty opening with 20.08 - 22.08.

1,900 screens - $3,442.5 avg - 6.54 OW, 17-20 Total.

 

higher prediction - 9.0 OW / 27.0 Total

upsetting.  1,046 screens.  its been on the schedule for months.  would it get to 2,000 locations?  maybe 2,500?  at least 1,000.  the suspense over a single film on a theatrical release schedule for movies (only going wide) and completely ignoring netflix or any other movie outlets.  and Traffik is on 1,046 screens.

i was hoping to see this one tonight, but its not playing anywhere.
