Three new movies debuted in the top five at this weekend’s box office, but they didn’t have strong enough openings to knock last week’s No. 1 movie from its place at the top.
Civil War, a futuristic tale of America at war with itself again topped the box office, taking in an extra $11.1 million for a two-week total of $44.9 million.
The horror movie Abigail, about a 12-year-old ballerina who is kidnapped and held for ransom at an abandoned mansion, debuted in second this weekend with $10.2 million.
Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire was pushed down a spot to third, garnering an additional $9.5 million for a four-week total of $171.6 million. Click here to read our review.
The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare from director Guy Ritchie debuted in the fourth spot, earning $9 million.
