Now in Theaters

Another week with a single movie opening in wide release, but everyone’s so excited about this one that it may have needed the entire weekend to itself.

’21 Jump Street,’ the movie version of the 1980s television show that introduced the world to the phenomenon known as Johnny Depp, opened strong with $35 million to easily take the top spot at the box office this weekend.

The supernaturally-powered boys in ‘Chronicle‘ proved they had one more trick up their sleeves: coming in first at the box office. The film sold $22 million in tickets to take the top spot this weekend.

Cold, gray weather got you down? May be a trip to the theater to see one of the three new movies opening in wide-release this weekend is the cure for what ails you.

Looks like movie-goers’ affection for vampires isn’t just limited to those in ‘Twilight.’ Kate Beckinsale’s vampire warrioress in ‘Underworld Awakening‘ proved popular as well, earning $25.4 million to take the top spot at the box office this weekend.

Now that the holidays are officially dead and buried, studios are back to releasing new films at a brisk pace — and this weekend, you’ll have your choice of four.

Proving action movies are still box office catnip, Mark Wahlberg’s ‘Contraband‘ had a $24 million debut, making it the most popular flick at theaters this weekend.

Exorcism thriller ‘The Devil Inside‘ had a $34.5 million opening this weekend, strong enough to bump ‘Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol‘ out of first place after two weeks at the top.

Only one movie is opening in wide release this weekend, but it looks like it has enough fright-factor to jolt you into the New Year without any outside help.

Moviegoers lined up to see Robert Downey, Jr. in ‘Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows,’ giving the sleuthing sequel a $40 million showing and the top spot at the box office this weekend.
