They’ve still got it!

The Expendables 2, the over-the-top shoot-em-up film, featuring Sylvester Stallone, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Bruce Willis, Jason Statham, Jean-Claude Van Damme, Chuck Norris and virtually every other action star of the past three decades, won the box office with $28.8 million in ticket sales.

Coming in second was last week’s champ, The Bourne Legacy, which earned $17 million.

Animated feature ParaNorman took third place with $14 million.

Political comedy The Campaign and Sparkle, featuring the late Whitney Houston, nabbed fourth and fifth places with $13.4 million and $12 million, respectively.
