The 2025 box office got a big boost last weekend. Memorial Day is a holiday that is regularly paired with movie-going – thanks to studios typically targeting it with some major releases – and both Dean Fleischer Camp's Lilo & Stitch and Christopher McQuarrie's Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning successfully brought people to theaters.

Lilo & Stitch reigns at the box office, topping Karate Kid: Legends ’ debut. With Disney’s hit extending its momentum and Sony’s franchise revival opening below expectations, the weekend box office draws sharp comparisons. Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning also holds firm in its second week.
