Box Office: Anti-Obama documentary does well, but 'Expendables 2' still no.1


 

Los Angeles Times | August 26, 2012 | 9:17 AM
The No. 1 film was still "The Expendables 2," which claimed the top spot for the second consecutive weekend. The movie starring aging action heroes saw its ticket sales fall 53% to $13.5 million, raising its overall total to $52.3 million. But the real story at the box office this weekend was "2016: Obama's America," a documentary from conservative author Dinesh D'Souza that far exceeded industry expectations. The movie grossed $6.2 million -- just a tad less than the bike-riding action flick "Premium Rush," which played in about 1,100 more theaters than "Obama's America" and grossed $6.3 million.
