The Click Clique

As expected, the comedy Click took over the top spot, as the number one movie in the U.S. this past weekend.

Here are a trio of perspectives on the weekend numbers...

Brandon Gray of Box Office Mojo:

The clamor for 'Click' was on par with Adam Sandler's previous comedies, grabbing an estimated$40 million, while 'Waist Deep'[at #4 with $9.5 in ticket sales] out-ran expectations

Gray's full report can be found here.

From Ben Fritz of Variety:

Sandler shtick clicks
Laffer lands $40 mil; 'Cars' parks in 2nd (with $22.5 million more added to the gas tank)

And lastly, Joshua Rich's from Entertainment Weekly had this headline for his report:

"Click" controlled the box office, taking No. 1

Once again, I find it interesting how each of the three outlets cover the same story--emphasizing different things, the past present and possible future for the box office.
