"Bob Marley: One Love," the biopic about the reggae legend, exceeded expectations over the six-day Valentine's Day-Presidents Day weekend, grossing $52 million domestically. The film, which stars Kingsley Ben-Adir as Marley, was originally expected to open in the $30 million range.

"Madame Web," on the other hand, bombed at the box office, grossing a mere $26 million in its opening weekend. The film, which stars Dakota Johnson as the titular character, is the worst opening ever for a Sony superhero movie. Critics and audiences alike have panned "Madame Web," with the film currently holding a 23% score on Rotten Tomatoes and an audience score of 41%.

The success of "Bob Marley: One Love" can be attributed to a number of factors, including strong word-of-mouth, a diverse cast, and a timely release date. The film was also heavily promoted by its distributor, Universal Pictures.

"Madame Web," on the other hand, was met with negative reviews and a lack of interest from audiences. The film's poor performance is a blow to Sony, which has been trying to establish a successful superhero franchise.

It will be interesting to see how these two films fare in the coming weeks. "Bob Marley: One Love" has a good chance of becoming a sleeper hit, while "Madame Web" seems destined to be a box office flop.
