YOUR WEEKEND
BOX OFFICE

The Top 5 Highest-Grossing Films in America Over the Weekend

Clint Eastwood's Sully (Warner Bros.), which stars Tom Hanks, spent another weekend as the #1 highest-grossing film at the domestic box office. That said, it was followed by three debuts: Lionsgate's Blair Witch, Universal's Bridget Jones's Baby and Open Road's Snowden.

The Top 12 was down more than 11% from last week—and more than 24.3% when compared to last year. With an approximate $75m, it was just $136k away from being the worst weekend of the year so far.

1. Sully (Warner Bros.) $22m 3,525/$6,241 avg. (week 2)
2. Blair Witch (Lionsgate) $9.7m 3,121/$3,092 avg. (debut)
3. Bridget Jones's Baby (Universal) $8.2m 2,927/$2,815 avg. (debut)
4. Snowden (Open Road) $8m 2,443/$3,284 avg. (debut)
5. Don't Breathe (Screen Gems) $5.6m 3,208/$1,746 avg. (week 4)
