“The Help” Wins Weakened Box Office Due to Hurricane Irene

(DreamWorks)

BOX OFFICE

Hurricane Irene has taken its toll on Atlantic Seaboard and this weekend’s box office, resulting in possibly the worst weekend of 2011 at the movies.

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’ Beats Slew of New Films To Stay #1

BOX OFFICE

Theaters were packed with new movies this weekend – but not with audiences.

‘The Help’ and ‘Rise of the Planet of the Apes’ stayed on top of the heap, with a number of disappointing debuts filling out the rest of the chart.

‘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.
