Based on the Nick Jr. kids cartoon Dora And The Lost City of Gold is given a PG age rating in the UK by the BBFC.

The film is loosely based on the TV show and seems to lean more towards films like Tomb Raider and the Indiana Jones series, but just maybe there is an education element to the film that the trailers don't show.

The film is directed by James Bobin who directed the two recent Muppet Movies and it stars Isabela Moner who was recently seen in Instant Family.

The BBFC have given the film its PG age rating for mild threat, rude humour and it has a run time of 102 minutes (1 hour 42 minutes) and is released on 16th August 2019.

As with any super hero film, especially from Marvel, Captain Marvel dominates the box office on its debut weekend of release with the highest debut for a new franchise in the 21 film franchise.

Captain Marvel

The first of this years Marvel films takes over at the top of the UK box office with ease this week and a £12.7 million debut weeeknd.

This is the 51st highest debut for a movie in the UK and is the already the 5th highest grossing film of 2019.

The last Marvel movie Avengers Infinity War went on to gross just why of £30 million, and with the sequel to that film just around the corner that could put this films total gross in the £25 million region.

Fighting With My Family

Falling to number 2 this week the Stephen Merchant direct film takes £1.03 million on its follow up weekend pushing is 10 day cume to £3.6 million.

The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part

The follow up brick movie is having a harder time on the box office in comparison to its predecessor and this week takes £816,200 pushing its 5 week cume to £16.7 million.

Instant Family

The Mark Wahlberg starring film has done well in the UK and this week falls to 4 with £673,286 which pushes its 4 week cume to £9.05 million.

How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World

Finally in the top 5 the threequel dragon movie takes £655,248 on its 6th week of release taking its total UK gross to £18.09 million.

The film is still the highest grossing film released in the UK in 2019 although Mary Poppins Returns is the highest grossing film of the year so far despite its 2018 release date.

Summary

In a week when there in a Marvel movie on the release schedule it will dominate and the top 5 this week has only 2 films grossing over a million pound which reflects that.

At number 14 this week is Bohemian Rhapsody which has now been around for an incredible 20 weeks and has taken £54.4 million.

Making his solo directorial debut Stephen Merchant takes his Fighting With My Family to the top of the UK box office on its debut weekend with The Aftermath also new at 6.

Fighting With My Family

Based on a true story the film was produced by Dwayne Johnson who also appears in the film and makes its debut at the top with a weekend gross of just over £2 million.

This is a typical British feel good movie similar to The Full Monty or Four Wedding And A Funeral and should hang around for quite a while on the UK box office.

The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part

The brick movie falls from the top after 3 weeks with a gross of £1.4 million on its fourth weekend of release.

This brings the films total UK gross to £15.8 million which is about £11 million below that of the first movie at this stage of release.
