It was a tight race this weekend between Marvel's "Captain America: The Winter Soldier" and the animated sequel "Rio 2", but the Cap eventually emerged as the champion with $41 million over "Rio 2" which grossed $39 million in the last 3 days. The animated feature pulled off the exact same box-office results domestically as the first film, but international numbers are much more impressive. The micro-budget horror feature "Oculus" opened in third place with $12 million, while the Kevin Costner sports drama "Draft Day" followed behind with $9.7 million.
More box-office details and the complete top 10, after the jump.
New Wide Releases: "Rio 2", "Oculus", "Draft Day".
