Blockers had an impressive opening at the Irish box-office over the 4-day Easter weekend where it grossed €396,000, including previews.
It's the biggest opening for a comedy in Ireland this year and it's well on its way to breaking more records in the coming weeks.
The film opened to Irish audiences when it was released last Friday and opens in the US this weekend.
Blockers stars John Cena, Ike Barinholtz and Leslie Mann as three parents who become concerned when they discover their teenage daughters plan to lose their virginity on prom night. They decide to ‘block’ them.
The movie is directed by Pitch Perfect scribe Kay Cannon and really is a very funny and surprisingly sweet comedy (read our four star review here). We interviewed Kay Cannon, Leslie Mann and John Cena for the film with the latter sharing his thoughts on how McGregor would do in WWE.
