It earned $14.2 million, making it the first film since Inception to stay at the top of the box office for three weekends straight. New movie The Debt followed with $9.7 million, while its fellow newbies Apollo 18 and Shark Night 3D were right behind it with $8.7 million and $8.6 million, respectively. Rise of the Planet of the Apes managed to stay in the top five, bringing in $7.8 million.
