| Title | Weekend | Total | Analysis |
| The Avengers | $55M | $457M | Not even Battleship could stand in the way of Avengers dominating the box office for the third weekend in a row; now the sixth-biggest movie of all time domestically |
| Battleship | $25.3M | $25.3M | A disastrous opening for this $200M+ movie; as big of a bomb as John Carter, which also starred Taylor Kitsch |
| The Dictator | $17.4M | $24.5M | Did better than most expected (opened on Wednesday), but failed to match the debuts of Sacha Baron Cohen's Borat and Bruno |
| Dark Shadows | $12.8M | $50.9M | Dropped a massive 57% in its second weekend, proving not everything Johnny Depp and Tim Burton touch turns to gold |
| What to Expect When You're Expecting | $10.5M | $10.5M | Despite its A-list ensemble, failed to deliver strong numbers |
