Fending off sequelitis, the testosterone-laced Angel Has Fallen opened to a better-than-expected $21.3 million at the North American box office to easily win the penultimate weekend of summer. Gerard Butler and Morgan Freeman are joined by Nick Nolte in the third installment of Millennium’s action franchise.
