Rise of the Planet of the Apes Mauls Box Office Competition

There was serious monkey business at movie theaters around the country this weekend.

Rise of the Planet of the Apes easily conquered all comers at box office, garnering $54 million and earning a spot as the fifth-best August opening ever. Guess our friends at Movie Fanatic weren't the only fans of this James Franco-anchored remake.
