The "Oz" prequel starring James Franco beat "The Call," a thriller about a 911 operator trying to save a kidnapped girl. The movie, starring Halle Berry, earned $17.1 million from Friday through Sunday, according to studio estimates.
"The Incredible Burt Wonderstone," a comedy featuring Steve Carrell and Jim Carrey as dueling Las Vegas magicians, finished the weekend in third place with $10.3 million.
