Notes:
- Warner Bros.' fantasy thriller Inception had a dream opening, as the Christopher Nolan-helmed Leonardo DiCaprio starrer took in an estimated $60.4 million in opening domestic box office. That was on the far high side of pre-release projections -- and a career-high opening weekend for DiCaprio.
- Last weekend's champ Despicable Me moved to #2 this weekend with an estimated $32.7 million. The animated film’s strong hold of 42% of last week's audience puts its brief ten-day stint at $118 million.
- Disney's Jerry Bruckheimer-produced adventure fantasy The Sorcerer’s Apprentice grossed only $17.3 million and a third spot for the three-day period. The Nicolas Cage starrer has now earned a lackluster $24 million after five days of release.
- Collectively, the weekend top 10 rang up $166 million, or 9% more than top performers in the same frame last year.
