The Green Hornet has taken the top spot to become the weekend box-office's highest grossing movie.
Exhibitor Relations estimated that the movie, which made $34 million, would have reached $40.5 million over the weekend, and in the overseas box office it would have earned $56 million.
"I really think they wanted a little bit more of out of it," E! Online quoted Hollywood.com box-office analyst Paul Dergarabedian as saying.
"But it's not a disappointment at all. I don't know if anyone in January expects to release a film wide and get a summer opening number," he stated.
Next on the list is Vince Vaughn's and Kevin James' The Dilemma, which made $17.4 million, followed by last weekend's highest grosser True Grit, which earned $11.2 million.
The fourth place was taken by The King's Speech, which made $9.1 million, and in fifth place was Black Swan, which made $8.1 million.
The top ten weekend box-office movies are:
1. The Green Hornet - 34 million dollars
2. The Dilemma - 17.4 million dollars
3. True Grit - 11.2 million dollars
4. The King's Speech - 9.1 million dollars
