“The Heat” — with its funny female cops– squashed other box office newcomer “White House Down” on Friday night. But “Monsters University” beat both of them, thanks to school finally being out. “The Heat” made $13.6 million compared to $9 million for “WHD.” The “Monsters” flick was at $14.3 million. “The Heat” stars movie vet and Oscar winner Sandra Bullock with comedienne Melissa McCarthy as FBI agents. It’s supposed to be funny, and is. “White House Down” is supposed to a be a serious film about the White House being invaded. It’s funny, unintentionally. “WHD” almost finished fourth last night. It beat “World War Z” by a mere $39,000.
