Ben Affleck's superhero adventure "Daredevil" leaped to the
top of the box office in a single bound this weekend. Studio estimates released Sunday showed the star-studded comic-book adaptation pulled in $43.5 million since its Valentine's Day debut. Co-starring Michael Clarke Duncan, Colin Farrell, Jennifer Garner and Joseph Pantoliano, the actioner wooed moviegoers away from last weekend's No. 1 movie, "How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days." Tumbling to the No. 2 spot, the Kate Hudson-Matthew McConaughey romantic comedy continued to per- form strongly, earning another $19 million at the box office and bringing its 10-day total to $47.7 million. Coming in third place was the musical extravaganza "Chicago," which earned 13 Oscar nominations last week and $12.6 million more in ticket sales. Its two-month total is $80.7 million. Disney's animated sequel, "The Jungle Book 2" swung into fourth place with $11.9 million, while the Jackie Chan-Owen Wilson period comedy, "Shanghai Knights" rounded out the top five with $11.4 million.
