Last Week’s Results

Proving that there’s no accounting for taste, the poorly reviewed Underworld Awakening (another in a long line of poorly reviewed films) tops the weekend’s box office where as the invigorating if sometimes dull Haywire placed sixth. Most notable for its rise is Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close which went wide to the tune of $10 million dollars and then followed that up yesterday with Best Picture and Best Supporting Actor Oscar nominations.
