Box Office Recap: ‘Captain America’ Threepeats at #1, ‘Transcendence’ Bombs

Captain America - The Winter Soldier

For a third consecutive week, Captain America: The Winter Soldier held onto the top spot at the box office while Fox’s family-friendly Rio 2 remained in second over Easter weekend.

The big shock for the weekend was Heaven Is For Real surpassing Johnny Depp’s Transcendence for third with $21.5 million. The film is based on the best-selling book Heaven Is For Real and stars Greg Kinnear, Kelly Reilly, Connor Corum and Thomas Haden Church. The Christian drama was produced on a small budget of $12 million.

Meanwhile, Transcendence bombed with a debut of only $11.15 million. The sci-fi film was produced on a budget of $100 million and stars Johnny Depp, Morgan Freeman, Rebecca Hall, Kate Mara, Cillian Murphy and Paul Bettany.

Another film that didn’t perform as well as expected was A Haunted House 2, starring Marlon Wayans.  While the horror-spoof has already recovered it’s $4 million production budget with an opening of $9.1 million, the take is nowhere near that of it’s predecessor, A Haunted House, which opened with $18.1 million in 2013.
