'The Expendables 2' Blows Up the Box Office

The Expendables 2
Lionsgate

"The Expendables 2" took no prisoners this weekend as according to Film.com, the oldest gang of ass-kickers ever assembled brought in $28.8 million to earn the top spot at the box office.

Of course, the other big new release of the weekend was the musical "Sparkle," which features the final performance from the late Whitney Houston. And the film did her legacy proud, earning $12 million for fifth on the chart. That was just two million less than "Sparkle's" entire production budget, meaning the film has almost broken even after just three days of release.

For a full run down of the box office figures, including totals for "The Bourne Legacy," "Paranorman" and "The Campaign," head to Film.com.
