Hannah Montana: Best of Both Worlds became the latest movie to have trouble holding onto the No.1 box office spot beyond its debut weekend. The concert film starring Miley Cyrus sold just $10.5 million in tickets one week after dominating theaters with a $29 million take.
The new box office champion was the Matthew McConaughey/Kate Hudson romantic comedy Fool’s Gold, which earned a healthy $22 million. This number was a bit surprising considering the fact that the film has been roundly panned by critics and audiences alike (it has just a 10% freshness rating on RottenTomatoes.com)
Third place, with $17.1 million in sales, went to the new Martin Lawrence comedy Welcome Home Roscoe Jenkins. This film was also a dud with critics, so you can expect its numbers to drop off next weekend.
Paris Hilton’s latest cinematic effort, The Hottie and the Nottie, earned a dismal $25,000 while playing in 111 theaters.
Here’s the complete Top 10 for this weekend:
- Fool’s Gold, $22 million
- Welcome Home Roscoe Jenkins, $17.1 million
- Hannah Montana/Miley Cyrus: Best of Both Worlds Concert Tour, $10.5 million
- The Eye, $6.6 million
- Juno, $5.72 million
- 27 Dresses, $5.7 million
- The Bucket List, $5.3 million
- Rambo, $4.1 million
- Meet the Spartans, $4.08 million
- There Will Be Blood, $4.07 million
