Transformers: Age of Extinction

Transformers: Age of Extinction

It was the battle of the sequel at the UK box office this weekend, with Transformers: Age of Extinction holding off How To Train Your Dragon 2.

Age of Extinction has already topped the U.S. box office, but because it was released on Saturday 5th in the UK, it was not eligible for be placed in last week's chart.

However, the nine day opening for the film has worked wonders, as the movie took £11.7 million, to hold off the challenge from How To Train Your Dragon 2.

The weekend saw How To Train Your Dragon release nationwide - having already been released in Ireland and in Scotland - and it took £7.7 million.

It may not have taken the top spot this weekend, but the animation movie jumped up two places from four to two. It was the only film on the up this week.

Mrs Brown's Boys D'Movie dropped two places after a fortnight as the UK's #1 film, while The Fault In Our Stars was also down two at four.

Begin Again - which sees Keira Knightley return to the big screen - was the second new entry inside the top five at five.

22 Jump Street dropped three places from three to six this week, while Boyhood was the third and final new entry at seven.

Maleficent was down two spots at eight, while Tammy was the biggest faller this week, down five to nine.

Chef was down three places as it rounded off the top ten at ten.
