"Spider-Man: No Way Home" predictably delivered a record-breaking debut and sucked the air out of all the other releases in the Top 10. Guillermo del Toro's "Nightmare Alley" also opened in theaters, but not a lot of people showed up to watch it.
Read more about the weekend box-office after the jump.
Sony's MCU movie "Spider-Man: No Way Home" dominated the box-office with $253 million from 4,336 theaters in its opening weekend. It raked in $50 million from Thursday night previews, which is quite impressive. This is the best December domestic opening, the best ever for Sony, and third best of all time, behind "Avengers: Endgame" ($357.1 million) and "Avengers: Infinity War" ($257.7 million), and ahead of "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" which opened with $247.9 million in 2015.
The film also scored $334.2 million overseas from 60 markets, which brings its worldwide cume to $587.2 million in three days. That's the highest ever global debut for the studio and the third-highest of all time.
"Spider-Man: No Way Home" received rave reviews from critics (94% on Rotten Tomatoes) and a very positive reception from moviegoers ("A+" CinemaScore).
In second place we have Disney's animated film "Encanto" with $6.5 million, down 34.6% from last weekend. The film has grossed $81.5 million domestically and another $94 million overseas.
Steven Spielberg's "West Side Story" went from a disappointing debut to an even worse sophomore weekend. The film dropped 67.7% and grossed $3.4 million over the weekend, landing in third place. Overseas, the film added another $2.1 million for a total of $9.1 million.
"Ghostbusters: Afterlife" finished in fourth place with $3.4 million, which brings its domestic total to $117.2 million after five weeks. Its international cume has reached $56.4 million.
The Top 5 is rounded out by the only other new wide release, Guillermo del Toro's neo-noir psychological thriller "Nightmare Alley", which stars Bradley Cooper and Cate Blanchett. The film delivered a disappointing $2.9 million from 2,145 theaters. The film was well received by critics (81% on Rotten Tomatoes) but it got a lukewarm reception from moviegoers ("B" CinemaScore).
