1. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles exceeded expectations and took the number one spot at the box office
2. Guardians of the Galaxy dropped in it's total by 55% but it's still an impressive second week at the box office
3. Despite horrible reviews Into the Storm made a solid amount of money with the competition it was against
4. Dawn of the Planet of the Apes continues to stay in the top 10 for the 5th week in a row
5. Overall this was a really solid weekend
