A: After opening last Friday, Fast & Furious went on to gross a nitro methane-stoked $72.5 million over the weekend. That's not only the biggest box office take of any film on its opening weekend this year, but the largest opening any movie has ever had in April. Ever — as in, since time began.
Opening on 3,461 screens across America, F&F brought in $30.5 million on Friday night alone. Throw in the receipts from other countries where F&F opened and the total gross rises to $102.6 million.
