Box Office: ‘Transformers 4’ Tops Long Holiday With $53.8M; ‘Tammy’ No. 2 With $32.9M

Disney made the found-footage film about a tiny alien robot but put it into turnaround last summer. Relativity points out that it only paid $13 million to acquire the movie and do reshoots.

Blame Summer’s Confusing Movie Titles Conservative author and filmmaker Dinesh D’Souza’s new documentary America, which expanded nationwide Wednesday, grossed $4 million for the five days from 1,105 theaters. That’s a modest footprint, compared to the $3,000-plus location count for the other new films.

America, placing No. 11 for the weekend, didn’t match the $6.5 million nationwide launch of D’Souza’s hit documentary 2016: Obama’s America two years ago, but soared more than 60 percent on July Fourth after an intensive marketing push tied to the holiday. On Saturday, America was the only film in the top 20 that was down, however.
