Warner Bros.' "American Sniper," the war drama from Clint Eastwood that grossed nearly $350 million in U.S. theaters, easily topped the national home video sales charts its first week in stores, snagging the No. 1 spot on both Nielsen VideoScan's overall disc sales chart and dedicated Blu-ray Disc sales chart for the week ending May 24.
"Sniper" ended a two-week reign atop both charts by Universal Pictures' "Fifty Shades of Grey," which slipped to No. 2.
In its third week of release, the film - based on the sexually charged novel of seduction and dominance - sold just 13% as many units as "Sniper."
