Box-Office: Luc Besson's LUCY Overpowers Brett Ratner's HERCULES

This weekend is living proof that PG-13 big budget epics are no match for a good mid-budget R-rated action flick. The lesson of the week was offered by Luc Besson's sci-fi actioner "Lucy" starring Scarlett Johansson, which opened at the top of the box-office with an impressive $44 million versus a $40 million budget. Pretty far behind in second place, Brett Ratner's $100 million sword-and-sandal epic "Hercules" starring Dwayne Johnson only managed to gross $29 million for its first weekend, not really below expectations, but a difficult outcome for a movie this expensive. The film also grossed $28 million overseas, which sweetens the result a bit for Paramount.

This week's other wide opener, the romcom "And So It Goes" starring Michael Douglas and Diane Keaton finished eigth with $4.5 million, although the film was released on far less screens than the other wide releases.

New Wide Releases: "Lucy", "Hercules", "And So It Goes".

Biggest Drop : "The Purge: Anarchy" (-66%)

First Trailer & Images for Luc Besson’s LUCY Starring Scarlett Johansson

We have the first trailer and five new images for Luc Besson's upcoming action thriller "Lucy". Scarlett Johansson stars as a woman who unwittingly becomes a drug mule, but ends up receiving some awesome superhuman abilities when some of the drugs she was transporting in her stomach accidentally enter her system. The movie looks like a cranked up version of "Limitless" and while that movie spent a whole lot of time on building a plot, this one seems bent on burning everything down with a series of mind-bending action sequences. Morgan Freeman and Analeigh Tipton also star.

"Lucy" opens in theaters on August 8th.
