‘Ant Man’ Squashes ‘Pixels’

Ant ManAnt-Man narrowly beat Adam Sandler‘s new action-comedy, Pixels, at the North American box office in another blow for Sandler, whose standing at the multiplex has been on the wane. Pixels debuted to an estimated $24 million from 3,723 theaters, not a good start for a summer tentpole that cost Sony and its financing partners at least $88 million to produce.

The top 12 films of the weekend, as of Sunday, July 26, are as follows:
