HOLLYWOOD - Director Paul Thomas Anderson’s comedic action thriller “One Battle After Another” topped box office charts in its debut. The film stars Leonardo DiCaprio as an ex-revolutionary on the run.

“One Battle After Another” will test DiCaprio’s box office bankability, says Variety. It loomed over two fellow new releases, kid-friendly “Gabby’s Dollhouse: The Movie” and Lionsgate’s R-rated slasher “The Strangers: Chapter 2.”

“Gabby’s Dollhouse” debuted in second place.

Two new offerings, Universal’s “Him” and Sony’s “A Big Bold Beautiful Journey,” collapsed in their second week.
