Beyonce makes bank on the billboard chart and in the box office. The star's suspense flick made an estimated $28 million this weekend, making it the highest opening day in April for a thriller. (For that record, the movie didn't have much competition, dethroning Disturbia.) Obsessed beat two other films that were heavily promoted by their studios: Fighting (which may tie Zac Efron's 17 Again for second place) and The Soloist. The Soloist, Robert Downey Jr. and Jamie Foxx's movie meant to tug on the heartstrings, took in only $3.2 million on Friday, though its critical success may yield steady revenue down the road.
