Tyler Perry’s Madea Goes to Jail topped the North American box office for the second consecutive weekend with $16.5 million in ticket sales, according to studio estimates Sunday.
The latest installment in the popular Madea series regained momentum Saturday and Sunday after briefly losing its No. 1 spot to new entry Jonas Brothers: The 3D Concert Experience. The film’s domestic total currently stands at $64.8 million.
At No. 2, the Bruce Hendricks-directed concert film Jonas Brothers collected $12 million. The 3D musical event follows the popular band on its Burning Up tour and offers fans a glimpse at how the boys spend their time offstage.
Meanwhile, Danny Boyle’s Oscar-winning drama Slumdog Millionaire climbed to No. 3 after expanding into 2,943 theaters, collecting $12.1 million and reaching a total haul of $115.1 million after 16 weeks in release.
Finishing in fourth place with $9.9 million was Pierre Morel’s action thriller Taken, which brought its cumulative gross to $107.8 million. In the film, Liam Neeson stars as a devoted father who stops at nothing to track down his kidnapped daughter.
Ken Kwapis’ comedy He’s Just Not That Into You dropped to No. 5 this weekend, taking home $5.8 million for a total gross of $78.5 million after a four-week run. Following in sixth place with $5.6 million was Paul Blart: Mall Cop, which lifted its domestic total to $128.1 million.
At the bottom of the top 10, Henry Selick’s 3D stop-motion adventure Coraline pulled in $5.3 million at No. 7, reaching a cumulative gross of $61.1 million after four weeks in release.

Debuting in eighth place with $4.6 million was Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li, which stars Kristin Kreuk as a female fighter trying to hunt down a ruthless villain. The Andrzej Bartkowiak-directed film is based on Capcom’s popular video game.
Rounding out the top 10 were Confessions of a Shopaholic, which reached a total of $33.6 million after weekend earnings of $4.4 million at No. 9, and Fired Up! (above), which finished in tenth place with a cume of $10.1 million after two weeks in release.
