The film grossed over $33 million at the box-office. The NYPD recently started sending its officers to Twitter class, according to reports reports by Natasha Velez of NY Post and Kari Paul of Mashable. And the Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) reportedly offered Twitter classes to British Diplomats, according to Matthew Holehouse of The Telegraph.
