Beyonce Knowles has a new #1 on the charts--the box office charts, that is.
According to Entertainment Weekly, "Obsessed" raked in $28.5 million over the weekend to finish ahead of Disney's "17 Again," which brought in $11.7 million during its second weekend.
Finishing a very close third with $11.4 million was the mixed martial arts drama "Fighting," starring Channing Tatum. Jamie Foxx's true-story tale of a musical prodigy turned schizophrenic and homeless, "The Soloist," took a hard hit, earning a disappointing $9.7 million.
Box office success aside, Twitterers offered their own rave reviews of each film.

Efron's '17 Again' tops box office
"17 Again" earned more than $24 million, easily besting the journalism thriller "State of Play."
In the film Efron plays a man transformed into a high school student where he can do his live over.
Twitterers of all ages raved about Efron and the film:
LeiahK @Melissa228 went to see 17 Again and LORD HAVE MERCY! I honestly don't remember laughing at a movie so much (Twilight doesn't count)! grandmadoodle Took the grandkids to see 17 Again. The 4 year old feel asleep, but the rest enjoyed it. BCLobbyist Spent Saturday evening surrounded by giggling teenage girls apparently the movie 17 Again is not just a movie about middle aged angst LOL Colleen922 17 Again was absolute love. Zac Efron is just....perfect. So freaking perfect. I love him.
