If it was a box-office battle of the sexes, then action-loving men had something to cheer about this weekend. "The Sum of All Fears" maintained the top spot for a second week with $18.7 million (click for photos from the movie), besting the debut of perhaps the mother of all chick flicks, "The Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood."

Though Ben Affleck's nuclear-terror thriller held strong during a rather sluggish weekend, "Ya-Ya" was able to land at #2 with $16.4 million. The Sandra Bullock-led dramatic comedy, following a group of lifelong friends' attempts to repair a mother-daughter relationship, may have lost to Affleck and co-star Morgan Freeman's CIA epic, but it did beat "Bad Company."

Starring Chris Rock and Anthony Hopkins, "Bad Company" debuted at #4 with a paltry $10.5 million. (Click for photos from the movie) With star power and mismatched buddy action similar to "48 Hours" and "Rush Hour" driving it, "Bad Company" was expected to fare better (see ).

The year's two biggest films, "Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones" and "Spider-Man" (see ), finished at #3 and #5, respectively. "Star Wars" made another $13.9 million for an overall take of $254.9 million (Click for photos from the movie), while "Spider-Man" added another $10 million to its $360 million total.

The rest of the top 10 includes the animated "Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron" at #6 with $9.4 million; Eddie Griffin's blaxploitation send-up "Undercover Brother" at #7 with $7.3 million (click for photos from the movie); "Insomnia," from MTV Movie Award-winning director Christopher Nolan (see ) at #8 with $5.9 million; J. Lo's "Enough" at #9 with $3.6 million; and the Badly Drawn Boy-scored "About a Boy" at #10 with $2.7 million.

Next week's numbers could pick up with the addition of "Scooby Doo," Matt Damon's spy thriller "The Bourne Identity" (see "Movie House: Will Matt Damon's 'Bourne' Be The Next Bond?") and "Windtalkers," a World War II drama. "Windtalkers" re-teams Hong Kong director John Woo with Nicolas Cage, who he directed in 1997's "Face/Off," and Christian Slater, who he directed in 1996's "Broken Arrow."
