"Dark Knight" Rises at Box-Office, "The Watch" Not So Much
The story of the box-office weekend is -- "The Dark Knight Rises" continues to muscle its way on top, while newcomers "The Watch" and "Step Up Revolution" limp.
"The Dark Knight Rises," the final film in the Batman trilogy by writer/director Christopher Nolan and star Christian Bale as our masked avenger, won the weekend for the second week in a row with $64.1 million. ("THE DARK KNIGHT RISES" MOVIE REVIEW)
Meanwhile, "The Watch," the new sci-fi comedy starring Vince Vaughn, Ben Stiller, and Jonah Hill disappoints with just $13 million for the No. 3 position. Also disappointing was the fourth installment of the "Step Up" franchise called "Revolution." The dance movie only sold $11.8 million for the No. 4 position, way low for the popular "Step Up" franchise.
