Friday Box Office: Help!

Hoo boy. The late-summer time movie bottleneck has swept up with Hollywood, relegating a few days ago’s trio of recent wide releases to the foot of the very best five in the box office. Above them, a set of leggy holdovers scrap for that top place, using the ladies from the Help putting far between themselves and James Franco’s tenacious Rise from the Planet from the Apes. Your scientifically lethargic Friday box office is here now. 1. The Assistance: $5,700,000 ($71,000,000) 2. Rise From The Planet From The Apes: $4,700,000 ($133,400,000) 3. Spy Kids 4D: $4,200,000 (NEW) 4. Conan The Barbarian: $4,100,000 (NEW) 5. Fright Evening: $3,500,000 (NEW) [Figures via Deadline]
