Da Vinci Is Da Joint
It turns out that The Da Vinci Code is a true phenomenon and has put a fair number of asses in the seats while inspiring paranoia on main street. The craptacularly reviewed film beat the living bejezus out of all contenders at the weekend's box office, bringing in $77 million to Over the Hedge's $37 million (and OTH was in more theaters) and Mission: Impossible III's $11 million (to be fair, MI3 is in its third week of release).
Can Da Vinci hang on to the top slot in the face of the latest X-Men flick, which opens this Friday? Not da likely, even with God on its side, I figure, if only because we're all mutants now.
