A blockbuster drought means that overall takings have fallen dramatically (by 88.4% for the top five, according to trade journal Screen Daily) since Barbenheimer’s opening weekend back in July. With little competition, Ken Branagh’s A Haunting in Venice scored a second week at the top, comfortably holding off a fairly weak challenge from painfully named thick-ear action flick Expend4bles – the worst performing entry in the franchise so far. Just sneaking into the top five is Dumb Money – a blackly comic retelling of the GameStop stock craze. Further down the chart, Barbie received a boost with an IMAX release and is now poised to overtake the Bond flick Spectre to become the fifth highest-grossing film of all time in the UK. Oppenheimer sits at number 32 in the same chart.
