The movie takes £15.2 Million on its second weekend which is a resonable 41% drop over its debut, this gives the movie a total UK gross of £52.6 Million.
It's confusing looking at how this compares with other Daniel Craig Bond movies, its not as good as SPECTRE, but in reality that movie had been out for 14 days by this point, its about the same as Skyfall but that movies wasn't released during a pandemic that closed cinemas for nearly 6 months, but its far better than Quantum of Solace and Casino Royale, one thing is for certain, the Daniel Craig era has been the most successful.
The movie is by far the top film of 2021 in the UK.
A sequel to the 2019 animated hit The Addams Family was always going to happen, and after a difficult year for cinema the sequel movie makes its debut at number 2 this weekend.

Bond movie number 25 makes its debut at the top of the US box office this weekend with a weekend gross of $56 Million.
This is lower than the last three Bond movies, SPECTRE, Skyfall and Quantum of Solace but it is higher than Daniel Craig's first Bond outing Casino Royale.
This is unsurprising as the movie has been delayed many times, but it has had good word of mouth and favourable reviews, but people are still nervous going back to the cinema, but this movie, and a few big future releases, could change that.
