Non-Stop: 3,090 theaters, 56% positive reviews, PG-13

"Global action star Liam Neeson stars in NON-STOP, a suspense thriller played out at 40,000 feet in the air. During a transatlantic flight from New York City to London, U.S. Air Marshal Bill Marks (Neeson) receives a series of cryptic text messages demanding that he instruct the government to transfer $150 million into an off-shore account.

Son of God: 3,256 theaters, 16% positive reviews, PG-13

"This major motion picture event -- an experience created to be shared among families and communities across the U.S. -- brings the story of Jesus' life to audiences through compelling cinematic storytelling that is both powerful and inspirational. Told with the scope and scale of an action epic, the film features powerful performances, exotic locales, dazzling visual effects and a rich orchestral score from Oscar (R)-winner Hans Zimmer. "

Repentance: 152 theaters, no reviews, rated R for language and extreme violence

Mystery/Thriller crafted for African-American audiences. "Years after a drunken car crash that almost took his life, Tommy Carter has reinvented himself as a therapist/spiritual advisor who advocates a synthesis of world religions and positivity. He's parlayed this vocation into a successful book release that one day draws the attention of Angel Sanchez, a profoundly troubled man fixated on the untimely death of his mother. When Carter takes on Sanchez as a personal client in an effort to raise funds for his indebted brother Ben, things quickly take a turn for the worse. "

Stalingrad: 308 theaters, 48% positive reviews, rated R for war violence

"STALINGRAD is an epic look at the battle that turned the tide of World War II. A band of determined Russian soldiers fight to hold a strategic building in their devastated city against a ruthless German army, and in the process become deeply connected to two Russian women who have been living there. Presented in IMAX 3D, the scale of the battle contrasts dramatically with the human drama of the Russian soldiers, the few remaining civilians and their invaders into Stalingrad."

The Wind Rises: 496 theaters, 88% positive reviews, PG-13

Anime. Critical darling. "The Wind Rises is a fittingly bittersweet swan song for director Hayao Miyazaki."

"Jiro dreams of flying and designing beautiful airplanes, inspired by the famous Italian aeronautical designer Caproni. Nearsighted from a young age and unable to be a pilot, Jiro joins a major Japanese engineering company in 1927 and becomes one of the world's most innovative and accomplished airplane designers."

Non-Stop is expected to own the weekend with a gross in the high twenties. LEGO will probably finish second. Son of God is expected to finish third. The others mentioned above will not be in enough theaters to make the leaderboard.
