Matt Damon has a reason to smile this weekend, he had his best box office debut ever with �The Bourne Supremacy�, which pulled in an estimated $53.5 million over the weekend, landing the sequel to the �Bourne Identity� at the top of the box office for the weekend. The original film took in a little over $27 million when it debuted in the summer of 2002. Damon reprised his role as CIA agent Jason Bourne for the sequel. 

Halle Berry�s �Catwoman� had no reason to purr after coming in a distant third with a weekend take of an estimated $17.16 million.  Last week�s No. 1., the Will Smith sci-fi action movie �I, Robot� dropped to second place with an estimated second weekend gross just north of  $22 million. That places the Asimov inspired summer blockbuster just a shade under $5 million shy of $100 million for 10-days. 

�Spider-Man 2� netted an additional $15 million this weekend, landing in fourth place. And "A Cinderella Story," rounded out the top five this week with an estimated $8 million in ticket sales.
