DUNE PART TWO REVIEW

This week on The Official Chart, The Fall Guy crashes in, and we get several returnees, leaving Dune to stay still at the top!

Welcome to The Official Film Chart.

THE UK TOP TEN

This week sees one new entry and four re-entries into the chart placings. This sadly means there is no more room for Bob Marley: One Love, Barbie, Wonka, The Batman, and Migration in the chart. But what are these new and re-entries into the chart, and where have they landed? Time to suit up and head out as we take a look.

DUNE: PART TWO REFUSES TO BLOWN OFF THE TOP SPOT!

It’s a sixth week at Number 1 for Dune: Part Two, which holds off competition from a big new entry this week. (Read our review here.)

ARE YOU READY TO TAKE ON THE CHALLENGERS ON PVOD?

That’s all folks!! However, hitting its way onto PVOD this week is the romantic drama Challengers. The film stars Zendaya, Mike Faist, and Josh O’Connor. Tennis player turned coach Tashi has taken her husband, Art, and transformed him into a world-famous Grand Slam champion. To jolt him out of his recent losing streak, she signs him up for a “Challenger” event — close to the lowest level of the pro tournament — where he finds himself standing across the net from his former best friend and Tashi’s former boyfriend. The film has been a resounding success at the box office. If this sounds like your kind of movie, you can rent it for £15.99 or buy it early for £19.99 now.

Will the film hit a winning ace against the chart next week, or will it send itself into the net instead? There’s only one way to find out. Join me again next week as we run down the top ten titles. So, until then…

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