What was supposed to be a ho-hum weekend at the box office turned into one of the biggest surprises of the year. The Ethan Hawke thriller The Purge, which was made for only $3 million, cashed in on the light release weekend to the tune of $36.3 million dollars making it the highest grossing weekend for an R-rated movie this year. This left Owen Wilson and Vince Vaughn wanting as the Wedding Crashers could not recreate the same magic for The Internship which managed to bring in only $18.1 million for a fourth place finish.
