Greek mythical epic Clash Of The Titans resolutely held its ground at the top of the box office rankings at the weekend.

Clash Of The Titans is also on track to become Australian actor Sam Worthington’s second-highest grossing film behind Avatar.

Following a solid weekend performance, family favourite How To Train Your Dragon has now grossed just under £10m. Kick-Ass, meanwhile, also held its position; the comic-book movie, which has been well received by critics, has racked up takings of 7m.

Whip It!, Drew Barrymore’s directorial debut starring Ellen Page, also enjoyed an encouraging opening, taking £353k.
