LOS ANGELES/NEW YORK (Reuters) – “2 Guns,” starring Denzel Washington and Mark Wahlberg as rival federal agents, shot through its weekend competition at movie theatres, collecting $ 27.4 million (17.9 million pounds) to lead the North American box office, according to studio estimates.

“The Wolverine,” last weekend’s box office leader, finished second with $ 21.7 million in ticket sales, and has totalled $ 95 million during its two weeks in theatres.

“Smurfs 2,” the newly-released sequel to Sony’s 2011 movie “The Smurfs” starring Neil Patrick Harris and a band of small blue elf-like creatures, was third with $ 18.2 million in ticket sales.
