There was no surprise at the top of the UK box office last weekend, as the final Harry Potter film blew away all the competition taking over £23m in just three days! This was helped by the nearly 50% increase in ticket price if you chose to watch it in IMAX 3D of course, but even so, it looks like it's going to take more money than any of the other Potter movies.
The number two spot was taken by Transformers 3 which continues to pull in the money, even after the critics had given it a right old kicking. Just goes to show that fan boys still want to pay to see Michael Bay blow stuff up.
The film that's being called The Hangover for women, Bridesmaids is in third place and has performed really well in the UK, having taken almost £16m so far. Who needs a romantic chick flick when you can watch a gross out chick flick instead? Brilliant!
