In fifth place was Formula One motorsport drama \"Rush,\" Ron Howard\'s acclaimed account of the famous duel for the 1976 world championship between James Hunt and Niki Lauda, earning $4.4 million.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt\'s raunchy comedy-drama \"Don Jon,\" written and directed by \"The Dark Knight Rises\" actor, took sixth with $4.2 million in receipts.
The film sees Gordon-Levitt play a porn addict who seeks to change his ways in order to win the woman of his dreams played by Scarlett Johansson.
Not far behind, in seventh place, was \"Baggage Claim,\" a romantic comedy about a lovelorn flight attendant who traverses America looking for Mr Right. The film took in $4.1 million.
Horror sequel \"Insidious: Chapter 2\" slid to eighth place with $3.9 million. The film, starring Rose Byrne and Patrick Wilson as a haunted husband and wife, is a follow-up to the successful 2010 horror flick \"Insidious.\"

The film directed by Pedro Pablo Ibarra debuted in the US and Canada with $2.5 million in ticket sales.
