Different Strokes All Around: Canadian, North American & UK Box Office February 20, 2009 weekend

It's a week of surprizes at the box office with different #1 Films here in Canada (Slumdog Millionaire), North America (Tyler Perry's Madea Goes to Jail) and the UK (Bolt - for the second week). Also Canada has it's quietest number 1 at $1.10 million and North America has it's strongest at $42.12 million. Very few other films with a debut this week made high marks on the charts, Fired Up! popped on the charts around the 8/9 mark in Canada and North America and although Tyler Perry's Madea Goes to Jail was number one in North America, it ranked 18th here in Canada. There definitely are a strong number of Oscar films still in the mix, it will be interesting to see the numbers next week since now the awards have been presented.
