Mediocre reviews couldn’t keep The Day the Earth Stood Still from vaulting into first place this weekend.
The sci-fi remake starring Keanu Reeves and Jennifer Connelly earned $30.5 million over the last three days, more than doubling the take of its nearest competitor. Although Earth had the smallest debut for a #1 film since October 17th (when Max Payne grossed $17.6 million), the Fox feature only cost a reported $80 million to make. It was also the studio’s best open since Horton Hears a Who unfolded in back in March.
The only other new entries in this week’s Top Ten were Nothing Like the Holidays and Milk. Holidays took in $3.5 million and scored itself a 7th place finish. Meanwhile, Milk - which had actually reached #10 before - reentered the charts at #9.
Read More Once again, the weekend’s top performers were movies much further down the list. Gran Torino - Clint Eastwood’s latest acting and directing vehicle - came in 20th despite a $45,287 per screen average. Doubt, starring Meryl Streep and Philip Seymour Hoffman, followed right behind with a $33,815 average. (You can review last week’s numbers here.)
