London
(Reuters):
Tom
Cruise's
Mission:
Impossible
III,
despite
lacklustre
ticket
sales
in
the
U
S
held
on
to
top
spot
in
Britain
over
the
weekend.
It
took
over
three
times
as
much
at
the
box
office
as
romantic
comedy
Prime,
starring
Uma
Thurman
and
Meryl
Streep,
which
was
new
at
No.
2,
according
to
figures
from
screen
international
yesterday.
Third
was
another
new
entrant,
horror
movie
When
a
Stranger
Calls,
which
pushed
the
animated
20th
Century
Fox
hit
Ice
Age
2:
the
Meltdown
down
one
place
to
fourth.
Last
week's
No.
2
Confetti,
a
romantic
comedy
featuring
some
of
Britain's
best-known
comedians,
was
down
at
fifth
place,
one
ahead
of
horror
video
game
film
Silent
Hill.
Down
two
places
at
seven
was
Bruce
Willis
action
movie
16
Blocks,
just
above
another
new
entrant
Brick,
which
stars
Joseph
Gordon-Levitt
as
a
high
school
loner
on
a
mission
to
track
down
his
missing
girlfriend.
Ninth,
unchanged,
was
the
modern-day
take
on
Twelfth
Night
''She's
the
Man''
while
horror
spoof
Scary
Movie
4,
down
from
sixth,
rounded
off
the
top
10.
