Antoine Fuqua’s The Magnificent Seven shot to the top of box office this weekend. The new film, which stars Denzel Washington and Chris Pratt, debuted with $35 million ($90 million production budget) and received mostly positive reviews from critics.

The movie is reboot of 1960’s John Sturges’ film, which Steve McQueen, Charles Bronson and Yul Brynner starred in as elite gunmen who protected a small Mexican village from invading bandits. That film was also a remake of Akira Kurosawa’s Seven Samurai, and was followed by a number of sequels including: Return of the Magnificent Seven, Guns of the Magnificent Seven, and The Magnificent Seven Ride Again.
