1. Vantage Point - Promising eight strangers and eight distinct points of view, the thriller earned $24 million despite stealing the concept from Jenna Jameson Does 8 Strangers with Cameras.

2. Jumper - Teenage boys flock to theaters, paying $12.7 million in the hopes of that inevitable scene where someone teleports into a girl's locker room. Only later do they remember it's invisibility where you do that.

3. The Spiderwick Chronicles - A requisite $12.6 million to whatever children's fantasy placeholder is there this week.

4. Step Up 2 the Streets - After earning another $9.8 million this weekend, I can't wait for the sequel, Step Up 2 the Streets 2: The Str33ts.

5. Fool's Gold - $6.3 million, mostly repeat viewers who didn't quite get it the first time.
