The Top 5 Highest-Grossing Films in America Over the Weekend

Three movies debuted in the domestic box office Top 5 this weekend. Warner Bros.' new Godzilla flick leads the pack, although it fell short of the studio's $50-55m expectations, and Paramount's Elton John pic Rocketman comes in at #3, exceeding monetary expectations and earning an A- CinemaScore.
