In what's looking like a neck and neck battle to the finish this weekend at the Box Office, two-week champion Shrek Forever After is holding a narrow lead with $6.5 million based on Friday's numbers over Universal Pictures' Get Him to the Greek, which made $6.2 million. The difference though is that Shrek is playing at 4.386 theatres, while Get Him to the Greek is playing at only 2,697 theatres. The comedy which is a spin-off of successful romantic comedy Forgetting Sarah Marshall has been praised by critics with a very decent 75% rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
Killers from Lionsgate Films is poised to debut in third after a decent showing in third spot with $5.7 million. The comedy stars Grey's Anatomy's Katherine Heigl and Ashton Kutcher. The film has been panned universally as films starring Kutcher normally do.
