By As Summer comes to an end, Straight Outta Compton is free to reign until it’s all over. It’s a weak release weekend for sure, but Compton’s intake doubles every other film’s with $26 million. So glad it’s caught an audience, and I can’t wait to see more of it.
For comparison, Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation took second with $11 million and Sinister 2 rounds out the top three with $10 million. Here are the box office performances for the August 21-23 weekend.
