An army of minions claimed their second victory this week as they conquered giant robots, massive monsters and a bunch of grown ups this weekend. Despicable Me 2, which currently has an impressive Tribute rating of 4.6 out of 5 stars, is the reigning box office champ, bringing in an estimated $44.7 million in its second week. It passed the $200 million mark Saturday at the domestic box office. Newcomer Grown Ups 2 almost beat the animated kids film bringing in a total of $42.5 million over the weekend, which is an improvement from the 2010 original‘s debut of $40 million. Adam Sandler’s first sequel ever, has a Tribute rating of 3.4 stars, and did lead the pack momentarily on Friday with a $16.1 million debut.
However, the highly anticipated big-budget film Pacific Rim failed to impress with a $38.3 million debut at number three. Monsters and 3D robots couldn’t bring in a large enough audience despite strong reviews and a 4.1 star Tribute rating. “Three weeks ago we were looking at $25 million-$30 million, so we’ve come a long way and this gives us something to build on,” said Warner Bros. head of distribution Dan Fellman. In fourth, with a weekend gross of $14 million in its third weekend in the top five, was buddy cop comedy The Heat with a Tribute rating of 4.1 stars. Rounding out the top five was Disney’s The Lone Ranger, with an additional $11.1 million, and a Tribute fan rating of 3.9 stars. ~Naomi Leanage

Two new releases brought more movement at the in North American weekend box office, especially Godzilla vs. Kong, which took over the top spot from Nobody.
People keep saying Pac.Rim has poor acting and such, but the effects are great. Now the debate remains, should I watch it for the effects only? What are your thoughts?
re:Grown Ups 2, Sandler and crew still got it. I wouldn’t see it in theatres but I would online/video.
