'Men in Black: International' led North American box offices over the weekend.
#MIBInternationalLOS ANGELES - "Men in Black: International" led North American box offices over the weekend, but the new sci-fi comedy was not as far into the black as Sony would have liked, taking in an estimated $28.5 million, industry watcher Exhibitor Relations reported.
Critics liked the chemistry of the two leads but gave the movie a lukewarm rating of only 24 percent on Rotten Tomatoes. Its box-office take for the three-day weekend fell short of"even the slimmest of studio expectations," website BoxOfficeMojo reported.But as suggested by its title, the film, shot in five countries, is doing better overseas, with earnings of $73 million to date.
In third, for the second week, was Disney's live-action"Aladdin," at $16.7 million. It stars Will Smith as the genie and Mena Massoud as the wily title character craving the attention of the enticing Jasmine .
