On its third weekend at the top of the UK box office Beaty and The Beast takes £6.7 million, yet again another excellent weekend gross.
This brings the films total gross to a fantastic £51 million over its 3 week UK release and by far makes it the top film of the year.
Making its debut in second place this weekend is the live action adaptation of the 1996 Manga film Ghost in The Shell.
Taking a relatively good £2.3 million the film has done well, but with the hype and mainly positive reviews we should have been looking at a higher debut.
Maybe the film will be a slow burner and with many teens on Easter holidays this could do well over the coming weeks.
I'm sure its not escaped your attention that the top 2 films this week are live action versions of classic animations.
Also new this week is Smurfs The Lost Village at number 3 with £1.3 million, this film will do well in the next couple of weeks and could challenge Beauty and The Beast for the top spot.
Free Fire is at number 7 and the special cinema event in aid of Comic Relief Peter Kays Car Share A Second Series Celebration lands at number 10, and it was only shown in one cinema chain!
Many long running films are not around anymore hence the longest running film this week is Logan which has been around 5 weeks while Beauty and The Beast is the top total grossing movie.
