“Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs” Tops Box Office
The book-based film “Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs” was first at the box office this weekend, taking in $30 million, according to EW.com. The animated film’s popularity calls into question the draw of movie stars, as it beat out several films with A-list actors.
In second was “The Informant!,” starring Matt Damon, which grossed an estimated $10.5 million. The much-hyped “Jennifer’s Body,” starring Megan Fox and written by “Juno” scribe Diablo Cody, earned just $6.8 million.
The romantic comedy “Love Happens” and Tyler Perry’s “I Can Do Bad All By Myself” took fourth and fifth places, respectively. “I Can Do Bad” came in first last week.
Twitter users shared their views on the top films:
Ms_TaiLynn Finally got to see “I Can Do Bad All By Myself”….WHAT A WONDERFUL MOVIE. Tyler Perry always has a moving message. joshhurst What a great weekend at the movies: Informant and Cloudy/Meatballs would both make my top five for the year, so far. missclari Morning Sunshiners.. I figure I’d do everyone a favor and tell u-dont watch the movie “Love Happens” -ur better off watching paint dry!! ppix Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs was awesomely funny. I might’ve liked it more than the kiddo. BigTicketEnt I am not sure why Love Happens got such bad reviews? Cause it had a deeper story than most romantic type of movies. damiella Saw The Informant! over the wknd. Should not have been marketed as a comedy, but enjoyable film with some good twists. Good voice over, too. whatabout_ken @JoJoS827 ha…figures. I saw Jennifer’s Body last night. I liked it. An ok film. Nothing spectacular or must-see though. PlanetMom I want whatever the creators of “Cloudy w/ a Chance of Meatballs” had in their coffee. That was one disturbingly entertaining flick. Yowza! djc1215 Jennifer’s Body was actually pretty good despite all of the reviews. Just don’t expect to be scared senseless or anything. RainbowDay Cloudy WIth a Chance of Meatballs was really cute! Take your kids to see it! angieransom saw Jennifer’s Body sat night and it was ok. megan fox is stunning! twilightskittle Saw ‘I Can Do Bad All By Myself’ last nite.
