‘Identity Thief‘ opened strong, taking first place with $36.6 million, already grossing its budget back. ‘Warm Bodies‘ was bumped to second, but still managed to add $11.5 million, dropping only 44% for a two-week total of $36.7 million. ‘Side Effects‘ opened third with $10 million. ‘Silver Linings Playbook‘ is bumped to fourth, adding $7 million for a $90 million total. ‘Hansel and Gretel‘ drops to fifth, only adding $5.8 million for a $44 million take (still $6 million below its budget).
‘Mama‘ falls to sixth, with $4.3 million, giving it a $64 million total in comparison to its mere $15 million budget. At seventh is ‘Zero Dark Thirty‘, adding $4 million for a $83.6 million total. ‘Argo‘ jumps back into the top ten at eighth place, adding another $2.5 million to its total, equating to $123 million (three times it’s budget!) while ‘Django‘ hangs on in ninth place, adding $2.3 million for a total of $155 million.
‘Bullet to the Head‘ slips to the bottom of the top 10, not quite cracking $2 million for a disappointing two-week take of $8 million. Between that and ‘The Last Stand‘, I can only imagine Stallone and Schwarzenegger hope their co-starring vehicle ‘The Tomb‘, to be released in September, brings in their combined audience to manage better numbers.
