Box Office Report: July 28-30

Leave it to Crockett and Tubbs to finally knock Captain Jack off the top of the box office mountain, as the big screen version of the hit 1980s TV show, “Miami Vice” took in more than $25 million in its opening weekend. “Pirates” still held on fairly strong to the second slot, holding off newcomers “John Tucker Must Die” and the underperforming “The Ant Bully.” This marks the second straight weekend of disappointment for Warner Bros., as the studio is quickly seeing “Lady in the Water” sink down the charts.

However, with Will Ferrell’s “Talladega Nights” coming up this weekend, it’s a sure thing that “Vice” stars Colin Farrell and Jamie Foxx will be taken for a ride out of the top spot soon. Box office grosses on the worldwide level stayed relatively stagnant, as no new movies currently in theaters look poised to crack that top 10.
