SEBRING, February 11, 2009 - He’s Just Not That Into You and Taken ruled the roost atop the North American box office the weekend of Feb. 6-8, giving the Fairmount Cinema 6 a crushing advantage over the other county theater, the Carmike.
He’s Just Not That Into You grossed $27.8 million to finish first and usurp Taken’s No. 1 spot, but the Liam Neeson actioner about a dad with deadly skills going after his daughter’s abductors dropped a ridiculously low 16.9 % from its debut to its second week. Taken grossed $20.5 million to grab that No. 2 spot.
Together, He’s Just Not That Into You and Taken grossed $10 million more than the next three movies combined, an early indication that they are resonating with audiences. The Pink Panther 2, on the other hand, debuted weakly, having lost its native attraction to sophisticated viewers. It now panders to a narrower range of children with its excessive use of predictable pratfalls.
By its dollar votes, the viewing public heartily recommends Taken and He’s Just Not That Into You.
