"The Help"
A mainstay atop the movie world over the past month, "The Help" once again snatched up the top spot at the box office during Labor Day weekend of September 2-5, 2011.
The Emma Stone starring book-based picture, which has been perched atop the movie money-making list for the fourth straight week, pulled in $3.6 million on Friday and $5.4 million on Saturday while pacing towards a four-day weekend total of approximately $18 million.
One of the newcomers to theaters across the States, the Helen Mirren fronted film "The Debt" followed a ways behind as runner-up with a $2.6 million opening day and $3.8 million second day - which set the John Madden directed offering up for a debut weekend take of $12 million.
Rounding out the top five at the box office in estimated weekend totals are two more newcomers in "Apollo 18" ($11 million) and "Shark Night 3D" ($11 million), followed by fifth place finisher, the James Franco led action flick "Rise of the Planet of the Apes" ($10 million).
