'Wedding' takes cake at box office
The Associated Press
If the weekend's top movie - American Wedding - glowed like a happy newlywed, then you could say the critically reviled Gigli stumbled like an ugly bridesmaid.
The third film in the sex comedy series, American Wedding collected $34.3 million to debut at No. 1, according to estimates Sunday.
The Ben Affleck-Jennifer Lopez movie Gigli debuted dismally, following weeks of toxic buzz and critical revulsion. The comedy about a gangster who falls in love with a lesbian rival during a kidnapping earned $3.8 million.
