DVD Rentals - Breaking The Code

July 7, 2009

There was a surprise on top of the rental chart as two new releases battled it out for first place. Surprisingly, The Code won the fight with roughly 16% more rentals than second place Confessions of a Shopaholic opened with. Inkheart opened in third place just ahead of last week's winner, Gran Torino. Madea Goes to Jail rounded out the top five.

The only other new release to chart was The Pink Panther 2, which just missed the top five.

Overall rentals were up 1.6% compared to last weekend hitting $140.0 million. However, that was 2.9% lower than the same week last year, ending 2009's nine-week winning streak.
