SYNOPSIS

Producer Jerry Bruckheimer brings his first 3-D film to the big screen with "G-Force," a comedy adventure about the latest evolution of a covert government program to train animals to work in espionage. Armed with the latest high-tech spy equipment, these highly trained guinea pigs discover that the fate of the world is in their paws. Tapped for the G-Force are guinea pigs Darwin (voice of Sam Rockwell), the squad leader determined to succeed at all costs; Blaster (voice of Tracy Morgan), an outrageous weapons expert with tons of attitude and a love for all things extreme; and Juarez (voice of Penelope Cruz), a sexy martial arts pro; plus the literal fly-on-the-wall reconnaissance expert, Mooch, and a star-nosed mole, Speckles (voice of Nicolas Cage), the computer and information specialist. Directed by two-time Oscar®-winning visual effects master Hoyt Yeatman—"G-Force" takes audiences on a high-octane thrill ride, proving once and for all that size really doesn't matter.

LOS ANGELES (AP) - "G-Force" trampled all over the box office with its small but mighty rodent feet, winning its opening weekend with $31.7 million.

That final figure Monday is down slightly from the $32.2 million estimate Disney gave Sunday for its 3-D family film about an elite squad of guinea pigs, but it was still enough to knock "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince" from the No. 1 spot.

In its second week in theaters, the latest installment in the Warner Bros. boy-wizard franchise made about $29.5 million, for a domestic total of $221.3 million. "Half-Blood Prince" has now made $625.2 million worldwide.

Among the other new nationwide releases, the Sony romantic comedy "The Ugly Truth" came in at No. 3 with $27.6 million, and Warner Bros.' horror flick "Orphan" finished in fourth place with $12.9 million.
