Both
films were making their debut but the former, starring Milla Jovovich, took
$20.6 million in receipts, ahead of "Finding Nemo," which earned
$17.5 million, according to box office tracker Exhibitor Relations.
Last
week's number one, "The Possession," a supernatural thriller starring
Kyra Sedgwick, was knocked into third but it was a long way back on the leaders
with just $5.8 million in takings this weekend.
Depression-era
gangster tale "Lawless" fell from second place last week to fourth
after earning $4.2 million, with "ParaNorman," an animated movie
about a boy who can speak to the dead, ($3.04 million) holding on to fifth
spot.
Action
romp "The Expendables 2," starring Sylvester Stallone and Arnold
Schwarzenegger, continued its drop, finishing sixth this weekend on $3.03
million.
"The
Words," a literary drama about an author who earns fame by stealing
another writer's work, was in seventh place, with $2.88 million in sales, just
ahead of "The Bourne Legacy" which earned $2.875 million.
In ninth
place, quirky fantasy-comedy "The Odd Life of Timothy Green" brought
in $2.5 million.
Rounding
out the top 10 was political spoof "The Campaign," starring Will
Ferrell and Zach Galifianakis, which took in $2.4 million.
