Gone Girl gives up it's reign at the top of the box office this week allowing the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles to debut at the top.
Reboots being the name of the game, Michael Bay produces a new take on the Turtles story of which the first film was released back in 1990.
Directed by Jonathan Liebesman and starring Megan Fox the new spin makes £4.7 million on it's opening weekend, there is no data for the opening weekend of the 1990 version, but an animated version came out in 2007 called TMNT which tool just less than a million pond on it's debut.
Gone Girl is still doing very well at the box office and this weeks falls into second place with a weekend gross of £2.3 million pound to bring it's total gross in the UK to £14.2 million which places it between Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy and Terminator Salvation as the top UK films.
Other new film at the UK are The Best of Me at 5, The Judge (a little disappointingly) at 9 and Northern Soul at 10, event feature The Metropolitan Opera Le Nozze Di Figaro 2014 is at 11.

Ten years ago - Shark Tale made it's debut at the top of the box office knocking the previous number one, Bride and Prejudice down to fourth.
Fifteen years ago - Deep Blue Sea made a debut at the top of the box office chart meaning that American Pie took a tumble into second place.
At the US box office this week David Finchers Gone Girl retains it's position at the top despite some heavy competition from Dracula Untold.
On it's second week of release Gone Girl takes $26.8 million in box office takings to give it a 10 day, 2 weekend, total gross of $78.3 million.
Dracula Untold made a good attempt at beating it but it only managed to enter the box office at 2 this week after taking $23.5 million in box office takings.
