SANTA MONICA
- If the question at this weekend's box office was, can
Julia Roberts
stay No. 1? The answer was, Duh. "
Erin Brockovich
" finished No. 1 for the third consecutive time, fending off strong showings by newbies "
The Road to El Dorado
" (No. 2) and "
The Skulls
" (No. 3), according to estimates by Exhibitor Relations Inc., the box-office tracking firm.
"Romeo Must Die," the martial-arts-thriller-cum-Shakespearean-tragedy that nearly toppled "Erin" last week, lost a little snap in its roundhouse kick and finished No. 4.
The new
John Cusack
film, the critically acclaimed "
High Fidelity
," cracked the Top 5 -- no mean feat considering it played on 2,000 fewer screens than "
The Road to El Dorado
."
Rounding out the weekend box-office winners were "
American Beauty
" (No. 6), which was expanded onto 1,990 screens and is raking in that post-Oscar cash; "
Final Destination
" (No. 7); "
Mission to Mars
" (No. 8); and the teen flicks "Here on Earth" and "
Whatever It Takes
" (tied for No. 9).
Here's a complete look at the estimated grosses for the weekend's Top 10:
1. "Erin Brockovich," $14.2 million ($76.2 million overall) 2. "The Road to El Dorado," $12.5 million ($12.5 mil overall) 3. "The Skulls," $11.4 million ($11.4 mil overall) 4. "Romeo Must Die," $9.7 million ($39.1 mil overall) 5. "High Fidelity," $6.4 million ($6.4 mil overall) 6. "American Beauty," $5.8 million ($117 mil overall) 7. "Final Destination," $5.2 million ($28.2 mil overall) 8. "Mission to Mars," $3.4 million ($54.5 mil overall) 9. (tie) "
Here on Earth
," $2.4 million ($8.1 mil overall) 9. (tie) "
Whatever It Takes
," $2.4 millon ($7.5 mil overall)
