YOUR WEEKEND
BOX OFFICE

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

Three new releases appeared in the the domestic box office Top 5 this weekend, with Fox's Queen flick, Bohemian Rhapsody, over-performing enough to come out on top, thanks to a $50m bow. Interestingly, at Rotten Tomatoes, the film earned a dismal 59% from critics and an impressive 95% from audiences.

Also impressive is the performance of Warner Bros.' A Star Is Born, another music-driven drama, which only dropped a mere 21% in its fifth week out.

Both films are having an impact at iTunes: Queen's The Platinum Collection (Hollywood) is #2, the Bohemian Rhapsody soundtrack is #6 and Queen's Greatest Hits is #7. Interscope's A Star Is Born soundtrack is #3.

1. Bohemian Rhapsody (Fox) $50.0m 4,000/$12,500 avg. (debut)
2. The Nutcracker and the Four Realms (Buena Vista) $20.0m 3,766/$5,311 avg. (debut)
3. Nobody’s Fool (Paramount) $14.0m 2,468/$5,673 avg. (debut)
4. A Star Is Born (Warner Bros.) $11.1m 3,431/$3,235 avg. (week 5)
5. Halloween (Universal) $11.0m 3,775/$2,918 avg. (week 3)
