There were 2 other new releases, the first at number 10, Kaduva which took £47,354 and The Warriorr came in at number 12 with £25,850.
Remaining at the top of the UK box office this weekend is the fourth in the Thor series of movies which is also part of the greater Marvel Cinematic Universe.
The movie suffers a hard fall in its second weekend with 67% from a weekend of £4.06 Million.
The movie has taken a total gross in the UK of £20.8 Million which a 1% above the previous movie Thor: Ragnarok.
The animated sequel movie, which is a spin off of the greater Despicable Me franchise remains at number 2 this weekend with £2.6 Million, a slim 38% drop over last weekend.
The movie has now taken £23.1 Million in the UK and this weekend breaks into the top 10 movies of 2022 at number 9.
The school summer holidays are about to start in the UK, and with the heatwave the Europe is experience at the moment this could work in the movies favour and it could see a return to the top.
The Baz Luhrmann directed bio-pic sits at number 3 this weekend with £1 Million, a very slim 24% drop over last weekend.
This gives the movie a total UK gross of £16 Million after 3 weeks of release.
Still inside the top 5 after 8 weeks of release is the Tom Cruise sequel movie which has shattered expectation and this week takes £810,638, its first weekend taking under £1 Million.
Incredibly after 7 weeks this is a very slim 19% drop over last week and pushes the movies total to £72 Million, it is by far the top movie of 2022.
The dinosaur movie takes £383,502 on its 6th weekend of release, a reasonable 32% drop, which takes it total gross to £32 Million making it the 5th top movie of 2022.
Highest new movie this weekend
Highest new movie of the weekend comes in at number 6 in the shape of the 52 years in the making sequel to The Railway Children which starred a young Jenny Agutter.
This new movie is directed by Morgan Matthews and makes its debut with £365,481.
In North America this weekend Melissa McCarthy kept up her run of number 1 debuting films by taking her latest film Spy to the top of the box office.
Following in the footsteps of Identity Thief, The Heat and Tammy the comedians new movie is her most critically acclaimed film to date and makes its debut with $30 million.
Last weeks top movie, San Andreas, falls down a single place to number 2 this week with $26 million, taking it's total to $99 million after 10 days.
Also new in the US this week is: Insidious Chapter 3 at number 3, Entourage at number 4 and right down outside to top 10, at 11, is Love and Mercy.
This week we see the release of Melissa McCarthy's new film Tammy and another teen horror/drama/fantasy film in the shape of Vampire Academy.
Melissa McCarthy has become a big star over the last few year with her turn in Bridesmaids and The Heat, this looks set to be another good comedy with McCarthy and co-star Susan Sarandon in to for, this could be the top film of the weekend.
Based on the novels by Richard Mead Vampire Academy boils down to St. Trinian's with vampires. This has a good teen following which could see it get into the top 5 but a limited following and little hype will see it disappear quickly.
Other new films this weekend are: Saturday sees preview showing in some cinemas for the much anticipated new Transformers: Age of Extinction before it's full release next weekend.
New to UK cinemas this weekend are Sandra Bullock and Melissa McCarthy in The Heat, The Smurfs return in a sequel, the old guys all return in Red 2 and a little bit of summer horror in The Conjuring.
A buddy cop movie with 2 women in the starring roles, and two of the biggest female stars of the moment join forces as Bullock and McCarthy join forces in the top US romp.
There has been a lot of buzz about this film, and Bullock has done the press rounds, even if it was a few weeks ago, I expect this film to do well at the box office, maybe even a number one film. The Smurfs return in, The Smurfs 2, this weekend and this time they are in Paris and meet up with a new creation that the evil Gargamel has. Hank Azaria and Neil Patrick Harris star again.
The first film was a bigger than expected hit and a timely release over the school holidays could give this a good opening weekend.
Three films fighting for the top spot this week, I think they will for the top 3, in order I think it will be The Heat, The Smurfs 2 and finally The Wolverine will fall to 3rd place.
Also out this week is Red 2 which will get a top 5 placing, probably at 4 and The Conjuring, which despite little known about the film will probably get a top 5 place also, just!
The heat wave the UK is experiencing largely kept audiences away from cinemas over the weekend and for a week with 2 big releases nothing did that well at the box office.
Monsters University was the champion debuting in the top spot but it's £3.46 million gross is way lower than expected.
Despicable Me 2 drops to second place with £2.22 million and second highest new entry Pacific Rim has come up very close behind with £2.19 million. Inline with my predictions Monsters University debut at the top, although I predicted the highest debut weekend of the year and it fell short by £8 million and Pacific Rim did debut in third.
Last year Ice Ace Continental Drift finally for a national release after a couple of weeks on limited and went back to the top of the box office with £10 million knocking The Amazing Spider-Man from the top after a single week.
Highest new film (of sorts) was Magic Mike at 3.
Five years ago Mamma Mia! stormed the box office on it's debut weekend taking the top spot from Hancock which fell to runner up spot. Mamma Mia would go on to be the highest grossing film in the UK for a short time.
Ten years ago Charlie's Angels Full Throttle was still at the top with Daddy Daycare being the highest new film at 3.
Fifteen years ago Six Days Seven Nights was the top film with Mad City the highest debut at 6.
