You’ve Got B.O.: Beowulf Slayeth

1. Beowulf - $28.1 million
2. Bee Movie - $14.3 million
3. American Gangster - $13.2 million
4. Fred Claus - $12 million
5. Mr. Magorium’s Wonder Emporium - $10 million
6. Dan in Real Life - $4.5 million
7. No Country for Old Men - $3 million
8. Lions for Lambs - $2.9 million
9. Saw IV - $2.3 million
10. Love in the Time of Cholera - $1.9 million
