Both The Perfect Guy (which wasn’t screened for critics) and The Visit (which was) exceeded pre-release box office expectations, ringing up $25+ million each and battling it out for first place over the September 11-13, 2015 weekend. It was a back and forth battle for the top spot but it appears Sony’s The Perfect Guy ultimately edged past Universal’s The Visit to take first place on the box office top 10 chart. Prior to opening in theaters both new releases were expected to finish up in the mid-to-high teens, so both Universal and Sony have cause to celebrate the actual box office figures. Meanwhile, last week’s first place film War Room added 100+ theaters and continued to perform well domestically in theaters.
