Weekend Box Office: 'Dolphin Tale' Takes the Top Spot


It took some word-of-mouth, as Dolphin Tale managed to leap over Moneyball and The Lion King (in 3D) to take first place on its second weekend in theaters. 50/50 faltered but was tops among newcomers, though faith-based movie Courageous had the most impressive showing at far fewer locations.

Dream House was a disappointment in its debut, while What's Your Number? brought in one of the worst numbers for a super-saturated (3,000+ theaters) release ever. Dolphin Tale eased just 26 percent to an estimated $14.3 million, which brought its 10-day total to a solid $37.5 million. Moneyball dropped 36 percent to an estimated $12.5 million.
