Ride Along rolling with $21.2 million

-

Box office • The Kevin Hart comedy Ride Along continued to speed through a typically quiet box-office frame, while the monster thriller I, Frankenste­in couldn’t be roused from the dead.

Universal’s buddy cop comedy Ride Along, co-starring Ice Cube, cruised to the top of the box office again, taking in $21.2 million in its second weekend, according to studio estimates Sunday. The film set a January debut record, with $48.6 million over the three-day U.S. holiday weekend.

Universal’s Lone Survivor came in second, earning $12.6 million in its fifth week.

I, Frankenste­in opened with just $8.3 million. Starring a beefed-up Aaron Eckhart, the 3D film wasn’t screened for critics.
