This week on The Official Chart, Abigail arrives to take a bite, and The Batman returns, leaving the Titans to reign at the top again!

Welcome to The Official Film Chart.

THE UK TOP TEN

This week sees one new entry and one re-entry into the placings. To allow these titles to take their places in the top ten, it is time to say farewell to Wicked Little Letters, and The Super Mario Bros. Movie. But what are these two titles, and where have they entered the chart? Time to revisit Hollow Earth as we find out.

NEXT TIME, THE CHART MAY GO BACK TO BLACK!

And that is this week’s top ten best-selling titles. Hitting PVOD this week is the biopic of the late Amy Winehouse in the Sam Taylor-Johnson-directed Back To Black. Marisa Abela gives the performance of a lifetime as the tragic singer/songwriter. She is supported by Jack O’Connell, Eddie Marsan, and Lesley Manville. The film received mixed reviews from critics, grossing $45 million against a budget of $30 million. The film is available to rent for £15.99 or to buy for £19.99.

Can the film topple the Titans from their top spot next week and sing its way to the chart summit? Time will tell, we will find out next Wednesday. So, until then…

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