Last week's box office leader, Warner Bros.' sci-fi superhero film "Watchmen," slipped to No. 2 spot in its second week of exhibition, with 18 million dollars in ticket sales over the weekend. The film, which lasts 2 hours and 40 minutes, had suffered from bad word-of-mouth after an initial rush to see it.
However, "Watchman" has grossed 86 million dollars in the United States and Canada over two weeks of play, despite the two-thirds drop in attendance this weekend.
"The Last House On The Left," a horror remake from Universal, opened in third place with 14.7 million dollars, while action-thriller "Taken" and comedy "Tyler Perry's Madea Goes To Jail" were in fourth and fifth with 6.7 million and 5.1 million dollars respectively.
