16th - 19th January 2014

Last weekend's leader has held strongly this weekend managing to continue to freeze the top spot.  Frozen dipped a minimal 18% and now is well on it's way to passing 30m.  The book thief also managed a great hold dipping only 11% to second spot this weekend on it's way past 6.2m.  The highest opener of the weekend belonged to Jack Ryan Shadow Recruit.  the opening of 2.1m while ok, was middling and possibly disappointing.  The only reason why this isn't talked up more was the disasterous opening in 5th we'll talk about in a second.  Saving mr banks held down 4th with a strong 21% dip. and a fine total of 5.5m.  5th spot belonged the extremely expensive samurai flop er film in 47 Ronin. Ronin could only manage 1.8m for the weekend.  it's disappointing per screen average of 5.5k says it all for this film.  the film has only manage 116m on a budget of 175m.  given it's opened in most places and only has managed 37m in the US, it's not going far.

Other films of note: The Hobbit 2 kind of steadied the ship with a 41% dip.  Free birds and american hustle were both basically flat from last weekend. Finally Catching Fire passed 39m and is only 230k or so from passing Iron Man 3 for the 2013 crown.
