UNTIL NEXT WEEK!

And that is this week’s top ten titles. As we move into October, we can expect to see challengers to the top spot in the form of Mission: Impossible-Dead Reckoning Part One (Read our review here.) And Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem (Read our review here.) This pairing will sell by the bucketload. But that’s for next month, so until next week…

Whatever you decide, whatever you buy, stay safe, be kind, look after each other, and happy viewing!
