Marvels latest superhero goes to the top of the UK box office with an incredibly good opening weekend, far better than could have been predicted.
Ryan Reynolds stars in Deadpool which makes its UK box office debut at the top with an incredible £13.6 million debut.
The film which is being distributed by 20th Century Fox rather than Disney beat all expectation and becomes a new franchise for Marvel, a sequel is in the works.
Falling from the top down to number 5 after a single week is Goosebumps which takes just over £1 million pound bringing its total to £4.1.
Also new this week is Alvin and The Chipmunks The Road Chip at number 2 and maybe a little disappointing Zoolander No 2 at number 2.
Highest grossing film on the box office is Star Wars: The Force Awakens which has not taken an amazing £121 million.
Historical charts - A year ago - Valentines day favourite Fifty Shades of Grey made its debut at the top knocking Big Hero 6 into second place.

This week the latest Marvel superhero makes its debut across the world at the top of the global box office.
Taking an incredible $260 million in its first week of release Deadpool storms the world box office in 62 countries.
The latest from the Marvel studio's proves that its not just Disney who can make superhero films and make money, 20th Century Fox can do it too.
Despite doing exceptionally well in China Kung Fu Panda 3 falls from the top of the world box office with a $34 million weekly gross, the film has taken $256 million to date.
Highest total grossing movie on the world box office this week, now that Star Wars: The Force Awakens has dropped to number 11 is The Revenant with $361 million.
Making an incredible debut this week is the latest superhero flick, this time with a twist, in the shape of Deadpool.
The Marvel superhero movie, distributed by 20th Century Fox due to a deal struck before the Disney buyout, takes the top spot with an incredible $132 million.
The Deadpool gross is far bigger than expected and the film has already recouped its budget, more than can said for the mega budget Disney Marvel films.
Falling down to number 2 this week is Kung Fu Panda 3 which after 3 week has taken $100.6 million after a $26 million weekend.
Also new this week is: How to Be Single at number 3 and Zoolander No 2 at number 4.
