Box Office Report for August

I've been busy with holidays and being ill but am back with a vengeance now and have just posted a box office report for Tastic Film for the month of August. Using the mighty Box Office Mojo as a source all things film and finance, I wrap up what's been hot, what's been not and what has been storming the charts in the past week.

We're the Millers is the big surprise of the past month but Lee Daniels' The Butler looks all set to do big business over the next few weeks.

We're the Winners!

Here is a teaser of the box office report but please head over to Tastic Film to check out the full report.

"Surprise comedy hit of the summer We’re the Millers is still hanging on to number 2 in the box office charts this week after three weeks on release and taking nearly $120 million across the globe. The raunchy comedy about a pot smuggling fake family stars Jason Sudeikis and Jennifer Aniston and has had very mixed reviews but has proved a hit with audiences, particularly in America. Over the past month it has taken even more than sci-fi spectacular Elysium on home turf, though the Matt Damon and Jodie Foster starring action flick has pulled in more punters in international territories..."

I then go on to discuss the box office performance of other big hits 2 Guns, Planes, The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones, Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters and Kick-Ass 2.

What did you think of the box office winners and losers this month? Any surprises?
