Younger audiences made up a bulk of viewers, but they didn't like it very much, giving the film a B- on Cinemascore.
No Time to Die came in 2nd, dropping 56% to $24.3 million. Its domestic total is now at $99.5 million. Globally, the film has taken $447.5 million with China still to come.
Venom: Let There Be Carnage ($16.5 million) and The Addams Family 2 ($7.2 million) followed.
The Last Duel debut in 5th with a thud of $4.82 million. The film has been targeted towards older audiences, who have been slow to return to theaters. Said audience made up half of viewership and gave the film a B+ Cinemascore.
Indie wise, Bergman Island debuted in 115 theaters to $55,000.
