LOS ANGELES — Leonardo DiCaprio and Christopher Nolan’s “Inception” is anything but a sleeper as the thriller opened with $60.4 million and a No. 1 finish at the weekend box office, according to studio estimates Sunday. The Warner Bros. action tale about a team that sneaks into people’s dreams is DiCaprio’s biggest opening weekend, topping $41.1 million for “Shutter Island.”

Slipping to second place with $32.7 million was the previous weekend’s No. 1 movie, Steve Carell’s animated hit “Despicable Me.” Disney’s family adventure “The Sorcerer’s Apprentice” was a dud, opening at No. 3 with $17.4 million.
