Prankster comedy “Jackass Presents: Bad Grandpa” kicked Sandra Bullock’s 3-D space thriller “Gravity” from the top of weekend box office charts in the United States and Canada, starting off with $32 million in ticket sales over its first three days.
After three weeks in first place, “Gravity” slipped to the No. 2 slot with $20.3 million in domestic ticket sales, according to studio estimates on Sunday. “Captain Phillips,” starring Tom Hanks in the real-life story of a ship hijacked by Somali pirates, finished in third place, collecting $11.8 million.
“Bad Grandpa” stars “Jackass” comedian Johnny Knoxville in disguise as an 86-year-old man who travels across the United States with his 8-year-old grandson, pulling pranks on unsuspecting people they encounter on the way.
