"Hellboy II" and "Journey 3D" deliver impressive openings. The 3D aspect of the latter is really a draw, it seems. Meanwhile, Eddie Murphy has one of the biggest flops of his career with "Meet Dave." After "The Love Guru" and now this, once popular comedians are struggling at the box office this summer.

Next week brings the highly anticipated Batman film "The Dark Knight" along with the musical "Mamma Mia!" and the CGI-animated "Space Chimps."
