| People weren’t afraid of committing to the new Aston Kutcher, Natalie Portman film, “No Strings Attached,” over the weekend, despite the title, because it beat out all movies to take the #1 spot.
The romantic comedy earned $20.3 million over the weekend, beating out last week’s top movie, “The Green Hornet,” by a slight margin. In “No Strings Attached,” Kutcher and Portman star as friends who try to maintain a purely sexual relationship with each other, even as they find they’re falling in love. It also includes a strong supporting of Greta Gerwig, Mindy Kaling, Lake Bell and Kevin Kline. “The Green Hornet” comes in at #2 with $18.1 million, taking its two-week total to $63.4 million. In it, Seth Rogen stars as the title playboy-turned-superhero, based on the 1930s radio show, with Taiwanese pop star Jay Chou as his sidekick, Kato. Down one spot to #3 this week is Vince Vaughn’s “The Dilemma” with $9.7 million, while “The King’s Speech” held steady at #4 with $9.1 million. Closing out the top 5 was “True Grit”, calling from 3-5 with $8 million. That’s a wrap for this weekend. Next weekend, look out for the release of the Jason Statham action flick “The Mechanic,” and Anthony Hopkins’ exorcism thriller “The Rite.” This weekend’s top 10 is as follows: 1 – “No Strings Attached,” $20.3 million. 2 – “The Green Hornet,” $18.1 million. 3 – “The Dilemma,” $9.7 million. 4 – “The King’s Speech,” $9.2 million. 5 – “True Grit,” $8 million. 6 – “Black Swan,” $6.2 million. 7 – “The Fighter,” $4.5 million. 8 – “Little Fockers,” $4.4 million. 9 – “Yogi Bear,” $4.1 million. 10 – “Tron: Legacy,” $3.7 million. |
