Columbia Pictures
So far this year, the Kevin Hart/Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson comedy "Central Intelligence" is the top in the genre of the year, having taken in over $110 million at the domestic box office. But the comedy "Ghostbusters" kicks off its theatrical run Friday with the hopes of rising up the ranks to catch Hart and Johnson.
