The two films delivered the biggest Memorial Day picnic in history at the box office, while 'Lilo' supplanted Tom Cruise's 'Top Gun: Maverick' as the holiday's top opener of all time, among numerous other feats.

It has been more than 10 years since movie theaters have seen a Memorial Day weekend this huge for the box office, but thanks to the combined efforts of Disney’s “Lilo & Stitch,” Paramount’s “Mission: Impossible — The Final Reckoning” and multiple holdovers and specialty titles, 2025 has set a new record for the holiday.

Audiences chose to accept their final Mission over Memorial Day weekend. Paramount’s Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning — the eighth and final installment in the Tom Cruise-fronted franchise — opened opposite Disney’s live-action remake of Lilo & Stitch for the combined biggest Memorial Day weekend box office haul in history.
