US Box Office
People didn’t need a guide to the movie theatre, but they still wanted to learn something. Hence The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy ends up on top, with $21.7 million.
Second was last week’s number 1, The Interpreter, with $14.2 million. At three, people were not that interested in Ice Cube as the new xXx, as xXx: State of the Union opened with a mere $13.7 million, about a third of Vin Diesel’s opening.
Rounding out the top five were left-overs, The Amityville Horror with $8.1 million and Sahara $6.0 million.
