Barbie spends a fourth weekend at the top of the UK box office which means it now ties with Avatar: THe Way of Water and The Super Mario Bros Movie as the longest number 1 of 2023.
The movie is now by far the top grossing movie of 2023 with £78.2 Million and it probably wont be beaten going in the end of the year.

You have to look outside the top ten to find the highest new film, A New York Winter's Tale enters at thirteen this week, taking £258 thousand for the weekend.
A year ago Disney was at the top with Wreck-It Ralph was still at the top of the box office while horror film Mama took the highest new position at three.
Five years ago Disney was at the top with Bolt retaining the position while new film Shopaholic entered at two. Ten years ago The Haunted Mansion stayed at the top, from, you guessed it, Disney. Entering the highest right down at nine was Sex Lives of the Potato Man.
