VIDEO : Ocean?s 8 Is A Hit

No surprise, but Ocean?s 8 easily won the weekend box office, earning exactly as box-office tracking suggested it would: Between $40 and $45 million (the exact number was $41.5 million). Interestingly, the gender-flipped continuation of the Ocean?s series not only debuted with the highest opening weekend of the franchise (besting the $39 million earned by Ocean?s 12), but it earned similar numbers to the gender-flipped reboot of Ghosbusters, which opened with $46 million.
