Still, “The Help” led the pack with $14.3 million in ticket sales.

Zoe Saldana’s revenge-action flick “Colombiana” came in second with $10.3 million.

Nabbing third with $8.7 million was the Katie Holmes horror movie “Don’t Be Afraid of the Dark.”

‘The Help’ earned a $20.5 million victory, with James Franco’s ‘Apes’ hitting $16.3 million for a strong second place.

After that, things got kinda ugly.
