Where are you located? Might be worth dropping your local cinema an e-mail! Where I am we have one subtitled showing of films a day. We alternate too. So it’s not always spider-man for a certain amount of time for example.

Edit: I know you shouldn’t have to but it’s surprising nobody has done Spider-Man near you!

I live in a village outside of Leeds, there are some screenings in Leeds that I could go to but they are at stupid times for me to travel in, nothing on Saturday anywhere and I’ve checked Sheffield too.

It really frustrates me that not all of them are subtitled it’s another barrier for deaf people, that we have to work around films that anyone else can see. Another example is my train breaking down the other day and all announcements being over the tannoy I had absolutely no idea what was going on, as everyone started getting off!? It just really sucks sometimes. 😞

10. (NE) Vishwanath & Sons - £279,945 Weeks: 1 (£279,945)

Falling out:

André Rieu's 2026 Summer Concert: Viva Maastricht! (1 week)

Ice Cream Man (1 week)

The Invite (6 weeks)

Obsession (13 weeks)

It’s a hat-trick for Spider-Man as ‘Brand New Day’ books a third week at #1 after a 49% drop that saw it add another £6 million and end the weekend just short of £80 million in total. This means that it is currently the 12^th biggest film ever in the UK and it will breach the top 10 next weekend. ‘Spider-Man: No Way Home’ is currently the 4^th biggest film and that was only at £69,849,930 at this time in its run and that had just had a Christmas boost. It’s currently an insane time for cinemas as the film at #2, ‘The Odyssey’ is now also a top 20 film of all-time after a 29% in week 5 sees it reach £69 million. Both films are miles ahead of the £56.6 million ‘A Minecraft Movie’ made to finish as last year’s top film. In fact, ‘Toy Story 5’ (-28% this weekend) is only about a million away from becoming the third 2026 film to outgross it.

 

The highest new entry this weekend is ‘The End Of Oak Street’ which opens at #3 with £2,112,782. The third release of a successful summer for Anne Hathaway, this also stars Ewan McGregor and is the long-awaited return for director David Robert Mitchell, who’s second feature ‘It Follows’ (£371,142, #8. 2015) was a pioneer in the ‘elevated horror’ trend of late and will be getting a sequel very soon. That film only made £1.1 million so this has instantly become his biggest hit. And this Dinosaur flick certainly has the budget to boot, reported to be between $80-90 million. It’s earned sold reviews but audiences have been more mixed so it will be interesting to see how it holds and if it can become profitable in the theatrical window. The other jurassic release in cinemas currently, ‘Paw Patrol: The Dino Movie’ loses 59% (-37% without previews) in weekend 2 to climb to £3.2 million.

 

Also debuting in the top 5 is the documentary? (it doesn’t seem to be a concert film) ‘KATSEYE: Wild Hearts’ (£725,419, £367k without previews, #4). This feels like a pretty decent release for a band who are already two members down, despite only being around for two-years.

 

Also getting a healthy preview boost, ‘Tony’ opens at #8 with £402,472 (£292k without previews). This is a biopic about a short period in the youth of Anthony Bourdain and sees Dominic Sessa portray the now late celebrity chef. It looks like the film is expanding next weekend so might end up sticking around. The final new entry this week is from India and is ‘Vishwanath & Sons’ (£279,945, #10). This is a romantic dram-com about a father who reconnects with the surrogate mother of his child after she gets diagnosed with a serious illness. It’s good to see the barrier to the top 10 look so healthy again after so many weeks of sub-£100k top 10 entries.

 

It was a decent time for kids films overall with ‘Minions & Monsters’ (-26%) and ‘Moana’ (-30%) rounding out the top 10 with good holds. The hold for Minions was the best of the week. Speaking of holds, we finally say goodbye to ‘Obsession’ after a 13-week run. But don’t fret, it’s still in this week’s top 15 at #14.

 

There are three further new entries in the #11-15 section: ‘Awarapan 2’ (#11), ‘Sunny Days (#12) and ‘Lady’ (#15).

 

Next week sees the openings of ‘Insidious: Out Of The Further’, ‘Mutiny’, ‘Teenage Sex And Death At Camp Miasma’, ‘& Sons’, ‘Spa Weekend’, ‘Stop! That! Train! and ‘David’. We also see re-releases of ‘Trainspotting’, ‘Kiki’s Delivery Service’ and ‘Early Man’.  Can any of them top the charts?

Summer Box Office Top 5:

1. (01) Spider-Man: Brand New Day - £78,755,985

2. (02) The Odyssey - £69,086,595

3. (03) Toy Story 5 - £55,248,189

4. (04) The Devil Wears Prada 2 - £34.2 million

5. (05) Obsession - £19,770,034

Still two more weeks of summer releases to go but this top 5 is now looking close to being locked.

Spider Man going to run undefeated in its fourth week looking likely. The Oddessy could be dethroned from its runner up position by the new Insidious

Its so fitting Obsession ending its run in the top 10 at 13 weeks. I'm assuming they'd pull it soon?

Ok, that feels solid for Oak Street!

Don't think that's a bad opening for 'Tony' considering that Anthony Bourdain wasn't a massive name in the UK (or at least, I've seen reviews from some people mentioning that they weren't really aware of him ), and Dominic Sessa is still a rising talent rather than a major established movie star.

Good to see the lower end of the chart looking healthier, even if it means 'Sunny Dancer' missed out on the top 10. Such a shame that couldn't break 100k.

I’m surprised Tony got higher than Sunny Dancer even with the former only being shown in selected cinemas. I expect Tony to climb next week when it expands to all cinemas. Shame Sunny Dancer missed the top 10. I thought it was a really good film. I do feel it had its sales watered down by it only being reduced to evening showings and no all day showings like with most films

Sunny Dancer’s not being shown at all in my local Cineworld!

Bella Ramsey will be doing an in-person, live Q&A at Showcase in Nottm this Thursday.

It’s a shame that End Of Oak Street got kept off the top by films that have been out for 3 weeks and films that have been out for a month. I thought it was a good film and when I watched it, the screen was absolutely packed

Im assuming the Robin hood prince of thieves rerelease for the 35th anniversary didnt do anything at all then ,

What do you mean? From what I’ve heard, the screens were absolutely full to the brim of people dancing in the aisles to Bryan Adams when the credits were rolling.

‘Spider-Man: Brand New Day’ makes it four weeks at #1 after a 41% drop, making it the first film to top the box office for that long since ‘A Minecraft Movie’ early last year. With £87 million now in the bank, it is now the 9^th biggest film of all-time in the UK, knocking ‘Star Wars: The Last Jedi’ out from the top 10, and is only about £1.5 million overtaking ‘Avengers: Endgame’. With school holidays coming to end in two weeks’ time across England, this next weekend will be vital to whether it becomes a £100 million hit. ‘The Odyssey’ is the runner-up for the fourth weekend after a 26% drop. With £75 million, it’s also cracked a big milestone with it now being the 15^th biggest hit of all-time and overtaking ‘Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows: Part 2’.

 

The highest new entry this week is ‘Insidious: Out Of The Further’ (£2,198,329, #3). The sixth film in the long-running horror franchise, this represents the third best opening but is pretty much equal with the last-film, ‘Insidious: The Red Door’ (£2,279,084, #3, 2023) and well above the other three that all opened under £2 million. The biggest opening (and only #1 hit) remains ‘Insidious: Chapter 2’ (£2,877,742, #1) from 2013 while ‘The Red Door’ is the top grosser overall with £8 million.

 

Shocking me, the second highest new entry is ‘Spa Weekend’ (£493,877, #5). This is a comedy from director pair Jon Lucas and Scott Moore, whose biggest directing gigs are the two ‘Bad Moms’ films but are better known for writing the original ‘Hangover’ film. This feels like a throwback to the big ensemble comedies of yore with Anna Faris, Isla Fisher, Leslie Mann and Michelle Buteau starring as four childhood friends who reconnect over a spa weekend and hijinks ensue. This has earned poor reviews and was DOA in America so I’m not sure why it’s overperformed slightly over here.

 

‘Bethlehem Kudumba Unit’ is the latest Indian hit and opens at #7 with £438,659. This is a rom-com and posts the fourth biggest opening for an Indian film this year. The final new entry this week is the latest Jason Statham actioner ‘Mutiny’ (£372,812, #9). This is comfortably the worst opening for a Statham film since I’ve been posting these charts and is noticeably down on the £964,903 that ‘Shelter’ opened with in January. I’m sure this wasn’t helped by Amazon accidentally releasing it on Prime last week for a day but I honestly think that could have worked as good promo if the film was actually any good.

 

Last week’s openers have opposing fortune as ‘The End Of Oak Street’ loses 56% while ‘Tony’ shreds just 15% (which accounts to a 17% increase when you take out previews) having the best hold of the week. ‘Tony’ has now passed £1 million and is the biggest hit of director Matt Johnson’s career while ‘The End Of Oak Street’ has £4.6 million.

 

This does mean that it’s just about climbed above the other prehistoric-hit in cinemas, ‘Paw Patrol: The Dino Movie’ which has a good hold in week three (-32%) and has £4.4 million. The other kid-hit, ‘Toy Story 5’ makes it double-figures of weeks in the top 10 after a 28% drop. £56.4 million is enough for it to climb above ‘Incredibles 2’ and become the fourth biggest-animated film of all-time. I don’t think it has enough left in the tank, but if it could find an extra £3.1 million to overtake ‘Inside Out 2’, it would make it an all ‘Toy Story’ top 3.

 

There are two further new entries in the #11-15 section: ‘Teenage Sex And Death At Camp Miasma’ (#11) and ‘Khalifa’ (#14).

 

Next week sees the openings of ‘Coyote vs. Acme’, ‘One Night Only’, ‘The Dog Stars’, ‘De Gaulle: Résistance’, ‘I Want Your Sex’, ‘The Pout-Pout Fish’, ‘Rise Of The Footsoldier: Retribution’, ‘Colony’ and ‘Bitter Christmas’. We also see re-releases of ‘Harry Potter And The Philosopher’s Stone’, ‘La La Land’, ‘The Fast And The Furious’, and ‘Shaun The Sheep Movie’.  Can any of them top the charts?

There's still officially one more weekend of new summer releases so I will post this again next week but we can officially call it now. This is the top 5 films of Summer 2026!

Oh damn Camp Miasma just missing top 10.

I thought that Coyote vs Acme opened at the weekend (I went to see it in the cinema and it got reviewed by the UK press last week), but it looks like it's being treated as a "Preview", with its official release being this weekend (I think it would've grossed enough to be #7 this week based on its takings). I'm not sure how previews are allowed to be included within weekly box-office takings (especially when it adds an extra 7 days to the 3 day figures), but I'm sure there's a reason why it's allowed.

Aw, a shame that Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma couldn't get top 10 (although might be a comparable opening actually?), I guess it hasn't attracted quite as much buzz as I Saw the TV Glow and they are still quite a niche director, but I preferred this one and this was one of my favourite watches of the year (an acquired taste somewhat, but definitely one I share).

I expected Tony to have a slight climb due to it being expanded to all cinemas. The next Rise Of The Footsoldier is gonna flop next week because it’s barely being shown in any cinemas

 

Teenage Death was in hardly any cinemas. None of my local cinemas were showing it
