The final instalment in the Star Wars Skywalker saga hits the top of the global box office in its debut weekend with $375 Million from 57 countries.
This is perhaps a disappointing debut for such a high profile film like Star Wars and Disney may perhaps have been looking for a bigger debut, it is the lowest debut of the sequel trilogy.
The film got a closer to Christmas release and traditionally at this time of year films take longer to get to their total gross.
The Karen Gillan and Dwayne Johnson sequel movie falls to number 2 this week with a weekend gross of $58.7 Million from 53 countries which brings its total gross to $311.9 after 3 weeks.
The fourth in the IP Man series of films, and supposedly the last, hit the global box office at number 3 this week with $51.5 Million from 7 countries.
With previews the film has taken $52.2 Million so far.
Disney's sequel smash hit takes $43.9 Million from 49 countries as it falls to number 4 on the box office.
The film now has a total gross of $1.1 Billion after 5 weeks of release as it fast approaches the global gross of the first Frozen movie.
The Chinese hit film falls to number 5 with $23.9 Million from 2 countries for a 2 week total of $77.4 Million.
