Action-thriller Contraband had a great opening in the US this weekend. The film bagged the No. 1 slot with an estimated 3-day tally of $24.5, which marks the highest opening for a Working Title production, passing The Interpreter's $22.8 million. Contraband also opened in seven international territories this weekend to good results and begins rolling out in the rest of the world from this Friday. From first-time director Baltasar Kormákur, Contraband stars Mark Wahlberg, Kate Beckinsale, Ben Foster & Giovanni Ribisi.
