It will most likely be the last weekend at the top for The Super Mario Bros. Movie but the top grossing movie of 2023 so far spends a fourth weekend at the top of the UK box office pushing its total gross to over £45 Million after 4 weeks of release.

With the horror movie Evil Dead Rise staying at number 2 with a gross of just over a million the top new movie of the weekend is The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry starring Jim Broadbent and Penelope Wilton which takes £784,698 on its debut.

Also new this weekend is Ponniyin Selvan: Part Two taking £618,244 on its debut and there is a new entry for the 40th Anniversary rerelease of the much loved classic Star Wars: Return of the Jedi at number 7 with £446,291

Maybe a little disappointing is the debut place for Polite Society which enters the box office at 9 with £220,278.

Finally inside outside the top 10 is Big George Foreman: The Miraculous Story of the Once and Future Heavyweight Champion of the World which debut's with £204,220.
