In fifth place was Kingsman: The Secret Service, which is holding steady after more than a month. The Colin Firth action flick, which made another $4.6 million on the weekend, has made $295 million globally.
Rounding out the weekend top 10 are The Second Best Exotic Marigold Hotel, Focus, Chappie and The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water.
