Looks like people must have been out enjoying the beautiful weather this weekend because they sure weren’t at the theaters. The top movie out this weekend was the new release 3:10 to Yuma (read my Yuma review) earning $14.1 million to nab the #1 spot. I really enjoyed this Western though I thought the ending deserved a stronger punch than it offered up to audiences. The other new releases did increasingly worse with Shoot ‘Em Up coming in at #6 with a mere $5.4 million. I’m really surprised at that number considering how the strength of its cast. My review for Shoot ‘Em Up will be up tomorrow, but I’ll tell you now it was a fun, over the top action movie that I definitely enjoyed. The last new release, Brothers Solomon starring Will Arnett and Will Forte, came in at a terrible #23 with just a little over a half million dollars this weekend. Yikes. Ah well guys, keep trying.
