The singer performed Recovering, her heartwrenching tribute to late husband Rene Angelil, which was written by Pink.

Tom Hanks plays the title role of Captain Chesley Sullenberger, who was hailed as a national hero in January 2009 after managing to save the lives of 155 passengers and crew as well as the aircraft, even though both of its engines had failed.
“When The Bough Breaks” features Morris Chestnut and Regina Hall as a childless couple who engage a surrogate that becomes psychotic and unsafe.
“Sully”, the kind of adult-oriented, midbudget drama that isn’t supposed to succeed in theaters anymore, at least if you listen to franchise-obsessed studio executives, soared at the box office over the weekend.
From Oscar-winning director Clint Eastwood (American Sniper, Million Dollar Baby) comes Warner Bros.
The Warner Bros. film cost a reported $60 million to produce and scored particularly well with audiences. The public, as well as pilots and others in the aviation industry who see the film, may get the wrong impression that investigators were trying to blame the pilots, they said. The film didn’t score well with critics at all, pulling in a zero percent rating on Rotten Tomatoes, granted with only nine reviews, but it’s a zero nonetheless. “Don’t Breathe”, $8.2 million ($9 million international). 4.
Dire reviews did not stop Suicide Squad clinging onto fourth spot in the charts after making $5.7 million. It likely won’t have a lot of legs to it but it’ll do well overall, though less than the similarly themed film The Perfect Guy, which arrived the same time past year and did $25 million for its opening.
In fifth place for the weekend is newcomer “The Wild Life”, which brought in an estimated $3.4 million domestically. LAIKA’s stop-motion animated Kubo and the Two Strings is still in the game with $3.2 million, followed by Pete’s Dragon with $2.9 million, and Bad Moms at $2.8 milion.

The top 10 was completed by comedy animation Sausage Party, which made $2.3m (£1.7m). Bridge of Spies opened to $15.4 million, and had an incredible multiplier, finishing with $72.3 million domestic and a worldwide haul worth $165.5 million – all against a $40 million budget.
