Box-Office Report: THE WOLVERINE

"The Wolverine", starring Hugh Jackman, surprised no one as it dominated the box-office this weekend, but there's still cause for some worries as the superhero flick only grossed $55 million domestically, a low margin for the X-Men franchise. "X-Men Origins: Wolverine" opened with $85 million in 2009 and the only other modest opening weekends in the Marvel franchise are 2000's "X-Men" ($54 million) and 2011's "X-Men: First Class" ($55 million). Still, "The Wolverine" managed to perform much better overseas, grossing $86 million from 126 countries, which is the all-time best foreign opening for an X-Men movie.

More box-office details and the complete top 10, after the jump.

New Wide Releases: "The Wolverine", "The To-Do List", "The Way, Way Back".
