Jurassic World Rebirth, the latest installment of the Universal Pictures dinosaur franchise, scored the top spot in theaters over the five-day Fourth of July holiday, grossing $147.3 million in the US and Canada despite middling reviews from critics.

The seventh installment in the action-adventure series created by Steven Spielberg opened well ahead of expectations over the long Fourth of July holiday in the U.S. - where it racked up $147.8 million - as well as overseas.

“Jurassic World” was missing from IMAX screens domestically (due to a commitment to continue showing “F1”), but it thrived on the premium large format screens where it played. One of those options was Dolby Cinema, where it made nearly $8 million from only 167 screens in five days.
