Men In Black III topples The Dictator with $5m opening box office weekend
Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones have returned to the top of the box office charts as galaxy defenders in Men In Black III.
The third installment of the action comedy – which launched the first in the trilogy in 1997 – is directed by Barry Sonnenfeld, who also directed the previous two. The film took just over $5m in its first weekend at the box office.
Opening across 592 screens, the film took 5.001m for a screen average of $8,449, according to the Motion Picture Distributors Association of Australia.
The secret agents bumped Sacha Baron Cohen’s The Dictator from the number one spot. The Dictator took $2.452m across 344 screens for a screen average of $7,130, taking $9.669m to date.
You see – that’s what happens when piracy runs rampant.
