Taking the No. 1 spot this week is, of course, Washington and his band of misfits. "The Magnificent Seven" nabbed $35 million in its debut, easily beating the competition this weekend and also giving Washington the third-biggest opening of his career.

"American Gangster" brought in $43 million during its 2007 debut, and "Safe House" managed a $40 million bow in 2012.
This, however, is a career best for one of Washington's favorite directors, Antoine Fuqua, who specializes in helping Washington find his inner bad-ass.
Taking the No. 2 spot this week is "Storks," bringing in an estimated $22 million — a bit underwhelming, considering predictions for the animated film were between $30 million and $37 million.

Falling out of first place but staying in the top three this week is "Sully," which brought in an estimated $14 million in its third week out. The Tom Hanks and Clint Eastwood collaboration has pushed past $126 million worldwide.
As for next week, Zach Galifianakis takes a break from interviewing presidents to try the whole movies thing in "Masterminds."
