‘Shutter Island’ stays afloat at No. 1 with $22.2M
LOS ANGELES — “Shutter Island” remains the top destination for movie-goers.
The psychological thriller from director Martin Scorsese and star Leonardo DiCaprio held the No. 1 spot for a second straight weekend with $22.2 million. “Shutter Island” raised its 10-day total to $75.1 million.
Debuting in second-place was Bruce Willis and Tracy Morgan’s police romp “Cop Out” with $18.6 million. Directed by Kevin Smith, “Cop Out” stars Willis and Morgan as veteran detectives trying to retrieve a stolen baseball card from a memorabilia-obsessed gangster.
Opening in third was the “The Crazies” with $16.5 million. The horror movie is a remake of George Romero’s 1970s fright flick about a small town hit with an epidemic of insanity.
