August 2, 2010 (Sampurn Wire): Registering a good Germany opening filled up by the stunning holdover activities in U.K., France and even South Korea, Inception claimed the Numero Uno spot at the overseas movie circuit. This DiCaprio starrer grossed a total of $53.7 million on the weekend from about 7,500 screens in all the 51 markets.

This is a Warner Bros.’ release and has been directed by Christopher Nolan.

The movie falls under the sci-fi thriller genre and stars Leonardo DiCaprio in the lead role. The movie has racked up a gross total of $170 million in the overseas market.

The first-place overseas debut of Inception was in Germany and it reached up to $7.1 million from the 715 locations for a stirring per-screen average of about $10,000.

In France, Inception finished at the top charting position in the second market round, and earned a total of $4.8 million from 715 sites.

OK, I am officially tired of Inception. Saw it, liked it, over it. Yes, I enjoy a “smart” movie, but I think this movie has created a universe where one is bullied into seeing this as to avoid being ostracized by the enamored public. Schmucks was miserable, IMO. Salt rocked, give credit on this one to Jolie as was mesmerizing. Looks like lots of crap on the horizon.
