Jim Carrey may not be the king of dramas, but the actor proved to be the kind of comedies when his latest movie, "Bruce Almighty," knocked "The Matrix: Reloaded" out of the top spot in the American domestic box office this week.

"Bruce Almighty," which presents Carrey's character receiving the abilities of God, pulled in $86.4 million in its opening weekend, nearly doubling the take of "Reloaded," which earned $45.6 million last weekend. While that was a 60 percent drop from the previous week, it was still a huge weekend for "Reloaded" as it has now made $209.5 million domestically.

That number is enough to beat "X2: X-Men United," which has had an overall domestic gross of $192 million in two extra weeks at the box office. "X2" finished fourth with a $13.1 million take this week.

Dark Horizons reported that while "Reloaded" most likely can earn another $100 million in the box office, fans should not expect the film to get much past $300 million.
