The Equalizer 3

After last week’s photo-finish, where Gran Turismo just barely managed to beat Barbie to take the top spot at the domestic box office, we’re back to a regular finish with a decisive victory: Naturally, that victory came at the hands of Robert Equalizer, Denzel Washington’s extremely capable killer (now retired) from Equalizer 3, with his third and final adventure debuting with $34.5 million. That was easily enough to beat Barbie, which made $10 million this weekend and has just over $600 million in the U.S. after seven weeks.

Blue Beetle is hanging on respectably, staying in third place for the second week in a row with $7 million and $56 million total, giving it a slight edge on Gran Turismo, which fell to fourth place with a hard 62 percent drop and only has $28 million after two weeks. Finishing the top five is Oppenheimer, which made $5 million this weekend and has just over $300 million in the U.S. after those same seven weeks that Barbie has had (remember when they opened on the same day? Barbenheimer? That was seven weeks ago).
