"Inside Man" Pulls It Off At Box Office

Spike Lee's Inside Man was the big winner at the box office. An even bigger surprise -- to me -- is the continued strength of Thank You For Smoking in limited release. It went from 5 screens to 54 screens, grossing almost $20,000 per screen and $1.1 million total. I assume that won't hold up when it goes truly wide, but who knows? Larry The Cable Guy many have only grossed $7 million, but since that's almost all gravy for what amounts to a glorified direct-to-DVD release suddenly dropped into theaters, that's a great number.

1. Inside Man -- $29 million
2. V for Vendetta -- $12.3 ($46.2 million)
3. Stay Alive -- $11.2 million
4. Failure To Launch -- $10.8 ($63.9 million)
5. The Shaggy Dog -- $9.1 ($47.9 million)
6. She's The Man -- $7.4 ($20.5 million)
7. Larry the Cable Guy: Health Inspector -- $7.2 million
8. The Hills Have Eyes -- $4.3 ($35.6 million)
9. Eight Below -- $2.7 ($77.2 million)
10. 16 Blocks -- $2.2 ($43.1 million)
