Sex and the City 2
It may have stumbled in the US but the ladies of Sex and the City had no trouble conquering the UK box office over the weekend with a mighty haul of just over £6 million.

This is an incredible debut for a sequel movie, and considering the terrible reviews the film has for Sex And The City 2 is going to be a hit like its predecessor.

Still doing well is the British dance film StreetDance 3D which fell one place to number 2, but it didn't really stand a chance against the might of Sex and the City ladies, but the film has still grossed over £5 million in total.

And performing in a similar way Prince of Persia: Sands Of Time also fell one place to 3rd on its second week of release taking a little over £1.6 Million for a £4 million total gross.
