Christopher Nolan's Inception, starring Leonardo DiCaprio, took the box office crown for the third weekend in a row, falling just over 35% for a $27.5 million take. With $193 million in grosses to date, the film continues to be a huge success for distributor Warner Bros.
The second place slot went to newcomers Dinner for Schmucks, from Paramount/Dreamworks Pictures. The Steve Carrell/Paul Rudd comedy opened with a respectable $23.3 million.
