Memorial Day Weekend Movies: ‘Fast And Furious 6’ To Win, ‘Hangover 3’ To Lose At Box Office [VIDEO]

Memorial Day weekend movies, Fast and Furious 6 and Hangover 3, are to be named winner and loser at the box office over the next few days as ticket results unveil which movie is more popular.

This Memorial Day weekend, Americans are looking forward to spending a few hours at the local theater watching the big screen. In recent reviews of the two films, movie critics say that the average American will most likely opt for Fast and Furious 6 over Hangover 3.

Hangover 3, which was released this week on Monday and will continue to be in theaters this Memorial Day weekend, was heavily criticized by the audience as "worse than the second" sequel and "weakest of the three films."

Although advertised as the "Epic Finale to the Hangover Trilogy," Hangover 3 left viewers dissatisfied with the latest sequel, and the audience advised others not to see the "dull, lazy" film this Memorial Day weekend.

On the other hand, Fast and Furious 6 enjoyed overwhelmingly positive reviews, and viewers were happy with the action-packed film. Claudia Puig from USA Today praised the numerous action scenes in the movie by writing, "Here's a movie that could easily have been dialogue-free."

Josh Terry from the Deseret News also said, "'Fast and Furious 6' is a relentless, over-the-top action blowout that is determined to be a crowd-pleaser. It's fast, it's fun, and thanks to roughly 273 explosions, car chases and fight scenes, it's pretty furious."

Despite being the sixth sequel, Fast and Furious 6 managed to keep its audience satisfied, and its resonance with viewers is expected to be displayed at the box office this Memorial Day weekend.

Richard Roeper from the Chicago Sun-Times wrote, "This is a movie that knows exactly what it wants to be and is almost always successful fulfilling that mission."

While Fast and Furious 6 is expected to rake in more than $100 million over this Memorial Day weekend, the prospects for Hangover 3 to reign at the box office are not as promising.
