This weekend, the NWA biopic Straight Outta Compton did better than expected, opening at #1 and taking in over $56 million thanks in part to good reviews. Mission Impossible – Rogue Nation fell to #2, while newcomer The Man From U.N.C.L.E. came in at 3rd with a disappointing $13.5 million take. All of the other movies in the Top 10 seemed to just drop a spot or two from last week, to allow for the two new films. Although it is no longer in the Top 10, Jurassic World made over $1 million for the 10th weekend in a row. Next week sees the debut of Sinister 2, American Ultra, Hitman: Agent 47, and Grandma. There could be a real logjam and Straight Outta Compton might even be able to stay at #1. Here is a breakdown of the top movie money makers for this past weekend…
