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.

The Final Reckoning” dominated the box office charts again after fueling a record-breaking Memorial Day weekend. Theaters in the US and Canada had several new films to offer this weekend as well, including Sony’s family friendly “Karate Kid: Legends” and the A24 horror movie “Bring Her Back.

Disney’s “Lilo & Stitch” tore into the global box office over Memorial Day weekend with a record- breaking $183 million domestically and $341 million worldwide — powered by a potent combination of nostalgia, family friendly characters and a resurgent theatrical marketplace.
