Box Office Report: 'Cloud Atlas,' 'Silent Hill' Can't Overtake 'Argo'

Neither Cloud Atlas, starring Tom Hanks and Halle Berry, nor new Halloween horror pic Silent Hill: Revelation 3D were able to beat holdover Argo on Friday. The two new films both grossed $3.5 million to tie for No. 2.
The news was even worse for Victoria Justice teen comedy Fun Size and Gerard Butler surfing drama Chasing Mavericks, the
weekend's two other new films.

Paramount and Nickelodeon's Fun Size placed No. 11 on Friday with $1.3 million, while Fox and Walden Media's Chasing Mavericks came in No. 12 with $825,000.
Box office observers don't believe Hurricane Sandy is affecting moviegoing to a dramatic degree along the Atlantic seaboard yet, but they are monitoring grosses.
Ben Affleck's Argo, which continues to be a crowd pleaser, grossed $4 million to come in No. 1, where it will stay for the weekend in a victory for the filmmaker and Warner Bros.
The independently financed Cloud Atlas, which Warner Bros. is distributing, has a chance of coming in No. 2 for the weekend with a gross in the $10 million range, but a C+ CinemaScore won't be good for word of mouth. Either way, it's a sour start for the movie, which cost $100 million to make.
