Can we still call a summer movie that opens to less than $40 million a disappointment? I make the case that Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle qualifies because it will do something that has now become the rule with sequels as opposed to the exception: fail to top the opening weekend of its predecessor.
Alex & Emma also falls an alarming 61.3% from the previous Friday. Wasn't Kate Hudson hailed as the next Julia/Meg/whomever after the $100 million gross of How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days? Oops.
