Pennywise continued to make the boxwood office competition float , despite the bearing of two new broad releases in house .
As expected , ITwon the weekend with $ 60 million in its second frame . The Stephen King adaptation held well , fall 51.4 pct from its record - smashing first appearance . After the film posted as high numbers as it did at the outset , some slew in patronage was believe to happen , but this is still a very telling exhibit for a pic that was perfectly timed . There candidly is n’t much to say aboutIT ’s dominating run through the multiplex . It simply took full advantage of the positively charged Scripture - of - mouthpiece and barren landscape and became a phenomenon . Its domesticated total presently endure at $ 218.7 million , and it ’s already the eighth - highest grossing release of 2017 so far .
possibility in a very upstage second isAmerican Assassin(read our review ) , which brought in $ 14.8 million in its first three days . The action mechanism / thriller may have been based on bestselling reservoir material , but that did n’t it help it much in regards to the box office . Reviews painted it as a fairly flavorless function that brought little novel to the tabular array - even with Michael Keaton giving it his all . That reception proved to be too much of a vault in the phantasm ofIT , and it ’ll be interesting to see how wellAmerican Assassinholds up . Next week visit the liberation of undercover agent sequelKingsman : The Golden Circle , which should do well .
debut in third ismother!(read our review article ) , the new photographic film from theater director Darren Aronofsky . It grossed just $ 7.5 million in its first three days , a byproduct of its factious reception . While critics likedmother!for the most part , audience were far less forgiving . The picture was the rare recipient ofthe deadly " F " CinemaScore , which is toxic word - of - mouth.mother!proved to be a ambitious and challenging work be given big on metaphor , and that clearly did n’t sit well with everyone . Also contributing tomother ! ’s poor showing was the success ofIT , which ( in terms of selling ) was break after the same horror / thriller gang . Paramount intelligibly did n’t anticipateITto be as vast as it was .
While some will make the argument that the polarizing judgement generated bymother!are the good advertising Aronofksy could have asked for , it ’s extremely unbelievable it turn things around in the coming weeks . The rest of September sees far more accessible deeds likeKingsmanandAmerican Madereach theaters , meaningmother!may not stick around for much longer . If sake is this low at the showtime of its run , it probably wo n’t have unattackable legs . as luck would have it , the budget was only $ 30 million , butmother!still has a long means to go before it reaches profitability .
Coming in fourth isHome Againwith $ 5.3 million . The plastic film raised its domestic totality to $ 17.1 million .
Rounding out the top five isThe Hitman ’s Bodyguard . The activeness / funniness brought in $ 3.5 million in its fifth weekend , raising its U.S. draw to $ 70.3 million .
The # 6 movie isAnnabelle : Creationwith $ 2.6 million . The revulsion prequel is now up to $ 99.9 million in the U.S.
In 7th isWind Riverwith $ 2.5 million . The dramatic event go along to hang around , conjure up its domesticated gross to $ 29.1 million .

Capping off the top 10 isDunkirk . Christopher Nolan ’s World War II epic made $ 1.3 million , increase its domestic aggregate to $ 185.1 million .
