STEP UP is a high school drama and obviously performed way above expectations. No other real big news, except the same audience indifference UNITED 93 had seems to be holding true for WORLD TRADE CENTER -- as I've written before it was FAR too soon for these movies for most viewers. ZOOM, meanwhile, was a disastrous turkey for Tim Allen, and wasn't marketed OR screened for critics!

The UK chart was interesting this week. Miami Vice dropped from no. 1 to number 3, beaten by holdovers Cars and POTC2. But the big surprise was the opening of Career in the Crapper - sorry, Lady in the Water. After that werewolf movie ad campaign, it opened at number 9 despite going on wide release!
