Kevin Hart's Movie Does Numbers!

No, Kevin Hart's "Laugh At My Pain" didn't break any box office records in its opening weekend, but the flick did very well considering it was a limited release. Despite being shown in less than 100 theaters, Kev still grossed $2 million over the weekend with a robust $20,200 per theater average. To give you an idea of how large that is here's "Laugh At My Pain's" stats in comparison to the #1 movie in the country, "Contagion":

"Contagion"got 3,222 screens and made $7,200 per theater, that's not even half of what "Laugh At My Pain" did.

Now of course Kev's per theater stats are a bit skewed due to people having to flock to the theaters that were actually showing his movie, but that's still quite impressive with so little backing.
