The Black Phone is also new at number 5 this weekend while outside the top 5 Jug Jugg Jeeyo is new at 6 with £163,648, George Michael Freedom is new at number 9 with £68,399 and finally Sher Bagga is new at 13 with £28,084.
Directed by the excellent Baz Luhrmann and starring an Oscar worthy performance by Austin Butler as Elvis the new bio-pic makes its debut at number 1.
The movie opens with a gross of £4 Million.
Two weeks at the top for the third in the sequel Jurassic series as the movie gets replaces at the top of the UK box office.
The movie takes a third weekend gross of £3.4 Million, a 40% drop over last weekend, which pushes the movies total gross to £27.1 Million.
This makes it the 5th top movie of 2022 in the UK, although it is the lowest grossing of the "world" series of Jurassic movies.
The Tom Cruise starring sequel movie falls to number 3 this weekend with £3.3 Million, a small 21% drop from last weekend, on its 5th weekend of release.
Globally the movie has just gone over the $1 Billion mark, and in the UK it has been no slouch as it crosses the £60 Million mark with a total UK gross of £63 Million.
This gives the movie the title of top movie of 2022, which I think it will retain, and it is about to break into the top 20 UK movies of all time with the district possibility of getting into the top 10 in the coming weeks.
Pixars much anticipated Buzz Lightyear origin movie has unfortunately been a bit of a flop of the Disney based studio as it drops to number 4 on its second weekend of release with £2.2 Million, a 38% drop over its debut last weekend.
This gives the movie a total gross after 2 weeks of £6.9 Million, not a bad 2 week gross, but this is a Pixar movie!
Finally on the top 5 this weekend is the new horror movie from director Scott Derrickson which stars Ethan Hawke and Mason Thames.
The movie takes a very reasonable £1.3 Million on its UK debut.
