Top Movie Box Office This Week: Weekend of February 28th – March 2nd

Check out the top box office movies from this weekend along with official movie trailers.

New this week, Last Breath (2025) is a gripping survival thriller based on a true story, directed by Alex Parkinson. The film follows a team of seasoned deep-sea saturation divers working on an oil pipeline 300 feet beneath the North Sea. Chris Lemons (Finn Cole), Duncan Allcock (Woody Harrelson), and David Yuasa (Simu Liu) are tasked with routine repairs when a catastrophic malfunction in their support vessel’s Dynamic Positioning System causes chaos. As the ship drifts off course, Chris’s umbilical lifeline—supplying oxygen, communication, and warmth—is severed, leaving him stranded on the ocean floor with only a few minutes of backup gas.

With time running out and the odds stacked against them, Duncan and David, along with the ship’s crew led by Captain Andre Jenson (Cliff Curtis), race against treacherous conditions to rescue their teammate. The film unfolds in a tense, near-real-time narrative, capturing the desperation and teamwork required to defy scientific limits—Chris survives over 30 minutes without oxygen, a feat that baffles experts. Interwoven with emotional glimpses of Chris’s fiancée, Morag (Bobby Rainsbury), awaiting his return, Last Breath is a story of resilience, human connection, and the extraordinary will to survive. Released on February 28, 2025, this adaptation of Parkinson’s 2019 documentary of the same name blends visceral underwater cinematography with a powerful ensemble performance, delivering an electrifying tale of hope against all odds.
