Friday saw a 23.1% decrease in box office revenue over the previous Friday.

One of the most unlikely films of 2009 to have a second weekend at number one is THE HANGOVER which earned an estimated $10.4M on Friday to take out the top spot. The film is on track for over $30M over the weekend and has only lost 37.6% of its audience from last Friday, making this one of the most successful films of the year.

Landing in second spot is Disney/Pixar's UP which earned an estimated $8.8M on Friday. The film has held extremely well, on par with other Pixar releases and is on track for a big $30M in its third weekend of release.

The first new opener for this Friday is THE TAKING OF PELHAM 1 2 3 which earned an estimated $8.2M on Friday which can be regarded as a disappointment given the star power of Denzel Washington and John Travolta. The hostage thriller may draw a more adult audience over the weekend but it will not do so much business given the competition from the top two films this Friday. The same can be said for the other new opener IMAGINE THAT which is way back down in sixth spot with an estimated $1.8M. Eddie Murphy's latest film has barely caused a ripple in the box office ocean and has definitely been lost in the shuffle with the other family films that are in the top 10.

Fourth and fifth spots are quite close with NIGHT AT THE MUSEUM: BATTLE OF THE SMITHSONIAN landing in fourth and the hugely budgeted disaster of a film LAND OF THE LAST taking out fifth spot. They earned, respectively, an estimated $2.97M and $2.9M on Friday. Although the former has generated more revenue against box office, the same cannot be said for the latter which is tanking fairly quickly, having only earned $28M since opening.

The remaining box office estimates for films on Friday are as follows: STAR TREK ($1.5M), TERMINATOR SALVATION ($1.3M), DRAG ME TO HELL ($1.3M), and ANGELS & DEMONS ($1.2M).

The North American box office took in an estimated total of $40.78 million for the whole of Friday 12th June 2009.
