Moviegoers were ‘Obsessed’ over the weekend
April 27, 2009
“Obsessed” captivated the domestic boxoffice over its first weekend as the Beyonce Knowles-Idris Elba starrer proved more dominant than expected with an estimated $28.5 million.
Three other wide openers saw mixed results. Universal’s bare-knuckled brawling drama “Fighting” debuted about as expected with $11.4 million in second place, while Paramount’s DreamWorks-produced drama “The Soloist” — in which Robert Downey Jr. plays L.A. Times columnist Steve Lopez — registered a light $9.7 million in fourth place. And the first Disney Nature documentary “Earth,” narrated by James Earl Jones, fetched a pleasing $8.6 million in fifth place with a $14.2 million cume since unspooling Wednesday. Read more
