“Hancock” also stars Charlize Theron and the movie is described as an “edgy, conflicted, sarcastic and misunderstood hero who might get the job done -but seems to leave jaw-dropping damage in their wake”.

**Hancock **- $103.9 M
** WALL-E** - $127.2 M

**Wanted **- $90.2 M

Get Smart - $98.1 M

Kung Fu Panda - $193.2 M
