"Office Christmas Party," a comedy starring Jennifer Aniston, took second in its debut week with $16.9 million.

Fourth place went to the alien invasion movie "Arrival," starring Amy Adams and Jeremy Renner, as it posted $5.6 million.
The movie received two Golden Globes nominations -- best original score and best actress in a drama for Adams, who plays a linguist recruited to communicate with aliens after mysterious spacecraft appear over the Earth.
Marvel's "Doctor Strange" came fifth with $4.5 million for a total of $222.3 million.
The movie, starring Benedict Cumberbatch as neurosurgeon Stephen Strange -- whose life changes forever after a horrific car accident -- is the 14th film in Disney's "Marvel Cinematic Universe."
