“Spy” sneaks to top of Box Office

“Insidious: Chapter 3” may have narrowly topped the Friday box office, but Paul Feig's James Bond spoof “Spy” is having no trouble winning the weekend ahead of the horror threequel and rival R-rated comedy “Entourage”.

“Spy” grossed $10.3 million from 3,711 theatres. The ensemble title, starring Melissa McCarthy, Jason Statham, Rose Byrne and Jude Law, looks like another win for Feig and McCarthy. From 20th Century Fox, the $65 million comedy has also been embraced by critics.

 “San Andreas”, the earthquake disaster film starring Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson, continues to be a force of nature in its second outing. The movie is tipped to gross $25 million or more for the weekend, putting it at No. 2. 

“Insidious 3” should follow closely behind at No. 3. The $10 million threequel marks the directorial debut of “Insidious” screenwriter Leigh Whannell and stars Dermot Mulroney, Stefanie Scott, Angus Sampson, Whannell and Lin Shaye. 

“Entourage” is looking at a fourth-place finish. The movie adaptation of the HBO show reunites creator Doug Ellin with Adrian Grenier, Kevin Connolly, Jeremy Piven, Jerry Ferrara and Kevin Dillon, which picks up the story a few months after the events at the end of the HBO show.
