(antiTainment) John Travolta reprise of Chili
Palmer was not cool enough to beat our Vin Diesel's foray into family entertainment.
"Be Cool," the sequel to the hit 1995 gangster comedy "Get Shorty," came
up short against Walt Disney Co.'s family comedy "The Pacifier," which
stars action hero Vin Diesel.
"The Pacifier" brought in an estimated
$30.2 million at the North American box office this weekend to capture
the No. 1 spot. "Be Cool" came in second place with an estimated $23.5
million opening weekend.
"Be Cool" knocked last week's No. 2, the
Will Smith fronted "Hitch" to a distant third place with a $12.5 million
finish. But it was week's No 1. film "Diary of a Mad Black Woman," that
took the biggest fall this week, landing in 4th place with an estimated
$12 million box office gross.
The top five was rounded out the Academy
Award winner for best picture, Clint Eastwood's boxing drama "Million Dollar
Baby," which climbed one spot with an estimated $8.51 million weekend box
office.
