"Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides" has claimed the first position at box office. The comedy movie, which stars Johnny Depp, opens strong with an estimated $90.1 million. Although it secures the top rank, the fourth film of the "Pirates" film franchise falls short of the previous two "Pirates" movies. In 2006, "Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest" grossed $135.6 million, while 2007's "Pirates of the Caribbean: At Worlds End" debuted with $114.7 million.
Taking the second place is "Bridesmaids". The Paul Feig-directed movie remains at the position, although obtaining only an estimated $21 million or falling about 19.8% from last week's cume. Thus, the film gains a total cume of about $59.5 million. In the meantime, "Thor" fails to maintain its power at box office. After ruling the chart for two consecutive weeks, the PG-13 superhero film drops to the third place by gaining an estimated $15.5 million, and reaching approximately $145.4 domestically after three weeks.
"Fast Five" drops a slot to number four. The action film, which has Vin Diesel reprise his role as Dom Toretto, grosses approximately $10.6 million on its fourth weekend. Trailing behind the car racing-themed movie is animated film "Rio", which secures the fifth rank by obtaining an estimated $4.7 million.
