Box Office Report: Jan. 5-7

Newcomers to the box office charts fell considerably short of challenging the “Night at the Museum” or “The Pursuit of Happyness,” which are spending their third straight weekend holding down the top two spots. Worldwide, “Museum” is pushing towards $250 million, making it a veritable blockbuster.

Critically-acclaimed “Children of Men,” starring Clive Owen and Julianne Moore, took third place with $10.2 million, after going into wide release. “Freedom Writers,” with Hilary Swank, was the only other film to have any box office impact, taking in $9.4 million.
