When it comes to the top 10 over the last year we have seen some surprises when it comes to the number one spot, we have seen a live event going straight into the top of the chart and now we have another rare treat in the form of the 18 rated Gone Girl spending a second week at number one, the last 18 rated movie to do that was Wolf of Wall Street.

Other new entries in this week’s top 10 included British comedy The Rewrite going in at number nine, horror spin-off from the Conjuring with Annabelle hitting number three and post apocalyptic teen adventure film The Maze Runner hitting second place in this week’s chart.
