Reviews were not good, but new family film “G-Force” topped the weekend box office, limiting the reign of “Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince” to a single week.<\/p>\n
“Force” earned an estimated $32.2 million, which gave it the edge over “Potter”‘s $30 million. Even more poorly reviewed “G-Force” (which was panned by critics), “The Ugly Truth” proved that Katherine Heigl’s ability to open a movie remains in tact–the film grossed a solid $27 million for third place (of course, with much worse reviews and without the proven staying power of Sandra Bullock films, this one has no shot at touching the long-term gross of fellow summer chick flick “The Proposal”).<\/p>\n
“Orphan,” another newcomer, landed in fourth with $12.8 million. The fifth spot belonged to “Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs” ($8.2 million).<\/p>\n
