Q: How is the March 2001 English box office chart ranked and where do the numbers come from?

Films are ranked by lifetime worldwide gross in US dollars, not adjusted for inflation, and grouped by their release date in March 2001. The figures are the reported box office grosses in our database. A gross that looks misattributed, such as one figure shared by two unrelated films or a blockbuster total on an obscure title, is left out rather than shown as a fact, and so are films whose stored language is most likely wrong.

Q: How often is the March 2001 English box office chart updated?

Grosses change while films are in theaters and whenever a new figure is reported; this chart reads the latest numbers in our database, so an older film can still move after a re-release.

Spy Kids (2001) is the highest-grossing English-language movie released in March 2001, with $147.9M worldwide, ahead of Enemy at the Gates (2001) at $97M and Exit Wounds (2001) at $80M. 23 English-language films released in March 2001 report a worldwide gross, $705.3M in all, 64% of it from the US & Canada.
