The 20th Century Fox's space film "The Martian" opened to a stellar response from movie customers, and topped North American box office this weekend.

20世纪福克斯电影公司的太空影片《火星救援》近日正式与观众见面，并且在上映当周就引领了北美票房

The movie was on track to sell 55 million U.S. dollars in tickets in the United States and Canada this weekend, according to studio estimates gathered by industry analysts¹ at Rentrak.

根据著名分析公司，雷翠克工作室，收集的估计数据显示：这部电影在美国和加拿大的本周票房，预计将会冲向5500万美元大关

For "The Martian" star Matt Damon, this was his second largest opening ever behind "The Bourne Ultimatum²" (69.2 million dollars) and ahead of "The Bourne Supremacy³" (52.5 million dollars).

《火星救援》是由马特达蒙主演，这部电影也是他在《谍影重重》(6920万美元)之后创造的第二大开幕票房额，同时成功超过了《谍影重重2》(5250万美元)

The movie opened just 1 percent below the 55.79 million dollars debut⁴ of October record holder⁵ "Gravity" back in 2013. The comparison was especially impressive given that "The Martian" did not have the advantage of higher priced IMAX admissions that "Gravity" had. It also opened 16 percent ahead of the 47.51 million dollars debut of last year's space film "Interstellar."

《火星救援》上映后的成绩仅比2013年的《地心引力》10月首映记录(5579万美元)低了1%。这一项数据对比清楚地表明：《火星救援》虽然没有像《地心引力》一样，拥有IMAX高价观影票的优势，但即使这样，它也比去年上映的太空电影《星际穿越》的4751万美元首映票房成绩，高出了16%之多。

"The Martian" received a strong "A" rating from first-night moviegoers on CinemaScore, which suggested that the film would hold up very well throughout the rest weeks of October. Critics gave it as high as 94 percent of approval rating on RottenTomatoes.

《火星救援》的首夜演出在电影评分网上得到了众多电影爱好者"A"的评价，这也预示着该电影会在10月的余下几周都会有很好的票房成绩。同时在烂番茄网上，它也获得了高达94%的支持率。

In its second weekend of showings, Sony's "Hotel Transylvania 2" ranked second with 33 million dollars in estimated receipts. The Adam Sandler led 3D computer animated⁶ film from Sony Pictures Animation⁷ held up very nicely this weekend, as it was down just 32 percent from last weekend's revenue. Its running total was 90.5 million dollars in 10 days.

索尼公司制作的影片《精灵旅社2》来到了上映的第二周，该片也获得了当周第二以及3300万美元的票房收入。这部由亚当·桑德勒引领索尼动漫公司打造的3D动画电影在当周维持了不错的成绩，仅比前一周收入下滑了32%，上映10天的总票房也达到了9050万美元.

Adding an additional 2,561 theaters this weekend, Lionsgate's "Sicario" came to the third place with 12 million dollars in weekend sales. Sicario received a healthy "A-" rating on CinemaScore and 93 percent positive rating from critics on RottenTomatoes.

本周在2561家影院上映的，由狮门影视制作的《边境杀手》获得了票房第三、收入1200万美元的成绩。《边境杀手》在影评网上也获得了较好的"A-"的成绩,并且在烂番茄网上获得了93%的支持率。
