Michael Bay's directorial debut features Will Smith and Martin Lawrence as narcotics detectives in Miami.

The comedic action film resulted in a 2003 sequel, and Sony announced in August that two more sequels are in the works, to be released in 2017 and 2019.

The film was nominated for three Academy Awards and was the highest-grossing domestic film of 1995. Two sequels have been released since, with a fourth slated for 2017, though it won't be a continuation of the first three films.

Here's how much the movie raked in:

  • Opening weekend: $29,140,617

The film features Tom Hanks, Kevin Bacon, Bill Paxton, and Gary Sinise as the astronauts trying to make a safe return from space.

Here's how much the movie raked in:
