Despicable Me

Despicable Me has topped the Australian box office toppling Tomorrow, When The War Began.

The latest animation from Universal Pictures has already topped the U.S. box office when it was released earlier this summer and took $3.2 million in it's opening weekend down under.

When a criminal mastermind uses a trio of orphan girls as pawns for a grand scheme, he finds himself profoundly changed by the growing love between them.

The Other Guys, the new movie from Mark Wahlberg and Will Ferrell, was just piped to the post as it too $2.7 million to finish in  second.

Tomorrow, When The War Began dropped two place to number three while the third and final new entry, which came in the form of The Sorcerer's Apprentice, was in at three.

Salt and Inception dropped two places a piece to finish the weekend at five and six while Going The Distance was also down two at seven.

The Kids Are Alright was the only movie to climb as it rose two places from last week's number ten to this week's number eight.
