The Misix Movie Quality Index decreased by 2.61 points to 62.99 this past weekend as the well-rated 50/50 fell out of the top ten at the box office and underperformer In Time (52.33) made its debut. The repeat anchor of the weekend, though, was The Three Musketeers (43.37), which once again was the lowest-rated movie of the top earners. Puss in Boots made a strong debut with a rating of 72.64 and pulled down the top spot at the box office with a $34 million weekend. Moneyball (87.42) remained the highest rated film. Despite its decrease, in the overall index this weekend remained barely above its average (62.06), indicating the top 10 movies were still a good buy for the week.
