Ridley Scott's gritty gangster drama easily took first place at the box office this past weekend, making American Gangster's opening weekend the highest-grossing for any R-rated crime drama in history. The film brought in a mighty $46.3 million over the weekend.
In second place was Seinfeld's Bee Movie, which also raked in an impressive amount: just over $39 million. Saw IV continued its reign of terror in third place, bringing in $11 million, while Dan in Real Life followed closely behind. 30 Days of Night rounded out the box office top five with $4 million.
This weekend Christmas comes early with Fred Claus. There will also be the Coen Bros. Western No Country for Old Men and the Robert Redford political drama Lions for Lambs opening nationwide.

10I'm getting really excited for No Country for Old Men this weekend! Oh, and Fred Claus too (but don't tell anyone)
Disclaimer: I'm not a big movie fan
11This was the first movie I've seen in over 6 months. I liked the story line only because it was true. If it wasn't a true story I would have thought it was marginal. Good acting but not a stretch for either of the lead actors. And yes, Common is very, very hot.
