This week BoxOffice takes a closer look at the financial prospects for A Walk Among The Tombstones. Will star Liam Neeson's winning streak continue or is his career surge starting to subside?

A Walk Among The Tombstones
(Universal)

PROS:

- Liam Neeson is fresh off the success of Non-Stop. The actor's fanbase consistently shows up for his action roles.
- Prisoners, another dark and gritty cop drama, succeeded during this same frame last year. 
- The film clearly has some horror elements, and that could help expand its audience.

CONS:

- September can often be a painfully slow month.
- Liam Neeson's action career has to lose momentum at some point. Could it be with this film?
