This week in the UK video sales chart best selling novel adaptation film Fifty Shades of Grey makes its debut at the top.

Fifty Shades was released in UK cinemas on Valentine weekend of this year, trying to make it as the ultimate date movie.

The film debuted at the top of the box office and quickly became the top grossing movie of 2015, at least for the early part of the year.

The film had a 7 week run on the UK box office during which time it grossed a very respectable £34.6 million making it the 62nd highest grossing film in the UK ever.

Across the globe it bake $566.7 million making it the 112th highest grossing movie ever, and of course it guarantees the sequels to be made.

Last weeks top film, Tak3n, falls down to the number 2 slot this week after a single week at the top.

Also new on the video chart are: Blackhat which makes it's debut at 11, Stonehearst Asylum which is new at 17 and Pound of Flesh which is new at 19.

There was little doubt over what would be the top film this weekend at the UK box office, and with ease the David Fincher directed Gone Girl starring Ben Affleck debuts at the top.

It's weekend take of £4.1 million Gone Girl makes a very impressive October debut. It has a long way to go for it to be Ben Affleck's top grossing film which is currently Shakespeare in Love from 1999.

Director David Fincher also has an impressive box office record, his best film to date being 1995's Seven, his second film, and considered a classic.

Coming in quite respectably in second is Dracula Untold which debuts at number 2 with £1.7 million.

Falling a single place to number 3 this week is The Equalizer which add's £1.2 million to make a 10 day total of £4.3.

Last weeks top film was an event movie for one day only but it had some 'encore' screenings which means it has gone on and made £114,000 this week but, as expected, tumbles down the chart.
