by POPSUGAR Entertainment 4

Audiences are smitten with Valentine's Day. Lackluster reviews couldn't stop the A-list rom-com from placing in the top spot at the box office with an intake of $52.4 million.

Other openers Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief and The Wolfman earned second and third place with $31.1 million and $30.6 million respectively, making this weekend the highest grossing President's Day tally to date.

Avatar and Dear John continued to cling to spots in the top five. James Cameron claimed another $22 million for his pet project for No. 4, while the Channing Tatum and Amanda Seyfried vehicle took a significant 50 percent hit, bringing in $15 million for No. 5.
