Winning the weekend isKingsman : The Golden Circle(read our review ) with a entry of $ 39 million . The sequel opened with slightly more than its precursor ( $ 36.2 million ) , betoken audience are still concerned in the burgeoning undercover agent series . Golden Circle ’s critical reaction was not nearly as enthusiastic as the reply toThe Secret Service , which may have had a negative impact on the film ’s commercial-grade prospects in a more militant period at the marketplace . However , with few movies of high - profile presently playing , Kingsman 2was able to take advantage and draw in sizable crowds . It give action fans something new to check out , after a prolonged time with not much at all .
It ’ll be more interesting to see howThe Golden Circleholds up as its runnel preserve . kit and caboodle likeAmerican MadeandBlade Runner 2049could present a challenge for it if they are well received . Due to the mixed reviews , Kingsman 2may not have the strongest legs and accrue off now that it ’s opened . Still , Fox has to be pleased with this performance , and once the international numbers start twine in , the film should prove to be a profitable success for the studio apartment . Matthew Vaughn will likely get a hazard to direct a third installment should he desire to .
Falling to second gear after two hebdomad at # 1 isIT . The Stephen King adjustment make for in $ 30 million , enhance its domesticated total to a staggering $ 266.3 million . The motion picture continues to rewrite the disk book , becoming the highest - grossing radius - grade horror movie of all - time . ITis currently trailingThe Sixth Sense($293.5 million ) to rein all of the genre , and odds are it will ticktock that score within the next duet of weeks . Thanks to the Scripture - of - mouth , audiences ca n’t seem to get enough of Pennywise .
debut in third isThe LEGO Ninjago Movie(read our review ) with $ 21.2 million in its first three days . That figure is well below expectations lead into the weekend , and easily the lowest curtain raising for theLEGOfilm franchise . ThoughNinjagowas the only new crime syndicate picture on the block during this frame , it was n’t able to truly capitalise on its monopoly over the fair game demographic . A lack of buzz certainly played into that , as the reaction skewed more to the negative side of the spectrum . Ninjagowas seen by many as a step down fromLEGO Batmanand the originalLEGO Movie , which fix its appeal . Unlike its predecessors , Ninjagodidn’t bluster a cross - generational outreach and skin to make an impact .
In fourth isAmerican Assassinwith $ 6.2 million . The thriller now stands at $ 26.1 million domestically .
round out the top five isHome Again , which realise $ 3.3 million in its third weekend . It has now made $ 22.3 million in the States .

Its domesticated total is presently $ 13.4 million , well below the $ 30 million output budget . The photographic film has gotten a diminished boost from the foreign markets and has a worldwide catch of $ 25.9 million .
The # 7 plastic film isFriend Request , a new repulsion film that was made for a minuscular budget of $ 9.9 million . Due to limited awareness ( market for the film was modest key ) , it had an uphill mounting against the bigger films and gross only $ 2.4 million in its first three day . With interest group this low at the outset , it ’s unlikelyFriend Requestcan turn things around - though the humble production price mean it could end up turn a net profit finally .
come in eighth isThe Hitman ’s Bodyguardwith $ 1.8 million . The action comedy increased its domestic total to $ 73.5 million .
Opening in a somewhat special release of 534 theaters , Boston Marathon dramaStrongergrossed $ 1.7 million in its first three days to come in ninth . The movie , which star Jake Gyllenhaal and is based on an inspirational true account , earned rave revaluation from critic , which helped it come forth as a antagonistic - programming choice for older moviegoers looking for something Modern to check out . Strongeris set to expand to more locations next workweek , so this could be the scratch line of a successful commercial run .
Capping off the top 10 isWind Riverwith $ 1.2 million . The drama arouse its total to $ 31.6 million in its 8th weekend .
