Weekend Box Office: Ocean’s 13 Is No. 1
By James Aquilone on June 10th, 2007
“Ocean’s Thirteen” was the No. 1 movie in the country over the weekend. The heist sequel, starring George Clooney, Brad Pitt, and Matt Damon, earned $37.1 million in its debut, knocking “Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End” to second place. “Ocean’s Thirteen”‘s opening is on par with the first two films in the franchise.
“Pirates,” which held the top spot for the last two weekends, earned $21.3 million, raising its total to $254 million.
“Knocked Up” continued to perform strongly. The comedy dropped from second to third with $20 million. Its 10-day total stands at $66.2 million.
The weekend’s other new releases, “Surf’s Up” and “Hostel: Part II,” had moderate success. The animated penguin flick “Surf’s Up” opened with $18 million, landing in fourth place, and the horror sequel “Hostel: Part II” made $8.8 million, good for sixth.

It’s always kind of ridiculous how many sequels there are but this is one I’m actually kinda wanting to see even if it does suck.

In a world where sequels are never as good as the originals, the Ocean’s series holds up. The third was just as good as the previous two.
