Box office blog: Tyler Perry does it again
Tyler Perry's "Why Did I Get Married?" opened without advance screenings--and, eventually, mediocre reviews--but topped the weekend office with $21.5 million. Perry, the man behind previous chart-toppers "Diary of a Mad Black Woman" and "Madea's Family Reunion," again showed that he's critic-proof, which can't be said for "We Own the Night," the unexciting Joaquin Phoenix/Mark Wahlberg thriller, which received average reviews and made only $11 million to come in at No. 3. George Clooney's terrific thriller "Michael Clayton" expanded its release but also earned only $11 million and tied with "Night" for third--pretty disappointing for a great film with such a high-profile star. But the weekend's biggest disappointment was the sequel "Elizabeth: The Golden Age," which brought in only $6.2 million to place sixth. How does Tyler Perry do it? Does anyone care about costume dramas? Why haven't you seen "Michael Clayton" yet?
