Dominating much of the world box office last weekend the apes sequel waited until the World Cup was over before being released across Europe.
Dawn of the Planet of the Apes will be the top film after mostly good reviews, it may have a chance of beating last weeks Transformers: Age of Extinction £11 million opening, Apes has had no pre shows though.
