looks like the sweetheart film of choice over the weekend was the holiday selection Valentine's Day, which landed at #1 in Canada, North America, the UK and Australia this past weekend. The Wolfman (2010) and Percy Jackson & The Olympians: The Lightning Thief place in the top 5 across the board for their first weekend on the charts. Bollywood film My Name is Khan landed #6 in the UK, #10 in Canada & Australia and #13 in North America - strong debut week!
