‘Street Fighter’ was top of the box office this weekend.
‘Whalefall’ couldn’t draw crowds.
‘Other Mommy’ fell to third.

Cinemagoers were clearly ready for some fighting this weekend –– and even with a more comical tone, ‘Street Fighter’ was what they opted for. The Paramount title, which is the latest go-around for the Capcom video game title on the big screen, opened to $31 million at the box office.

Sadly for new dramatic thriller ‘Whalefall,’ adult audiences didn’t turn out to see ‘Resident Evil’s Austin Abrams try to survive being swallowed by a whale, as it only opened fourth with $7.5 million.

The latest Jane Austen adaptation, ‘Sense and Sensibility,’ meanwhile, arrived in fifth with $6.7 million, but has a much lower budget to recoup.
