The movies that followed rank did not do as well in the opening this weekend.

Universal Pictures', "A Walk Among the Tombstones" starring Liam Neeson only earned $4 million last Friday. The R-rated, violent drama pic from Scott Frank ranks second with $15 million, a low figure considering Neeson's ability to bring in the numbers.

The Shawn Levy and Warner Bros. pic, "This is Where I Leave You" did not do so well, despite having top actors like Tina Fey, Jason Bateman and Jane Fonda. The relatively low-budget film (costing only $20 million to make) was marketed as a big movie, but did not rake in as much, compared to its hype. The R-rated movie fetched in only $3.9 million on Friday and is working its way to reach $11 million.

"No Good Deed" follows suit as the PG-13 thriller earned $2.95 million last Friday and earning up to $32.9 million from last week.

The fifth spot belongs to the family movie, "Dolphin Tale 2" which grossed $2.14 million on Friday, earning a total of $20 million from its first week.
