Over the past weekend (24 to 26 June), SA movie-goers were still amped about Finding Dory. The kid-friendly flick started off strong in the local box office last week and is still holding first place. Some other titles, however, are not doing as well.
Blizzard Entertainment’s big-screen video game adaptation, WarCraft (review), has slipped from the second to sixth spot, which is quite a tumble.

The magician-centric Now You See Me: The Second act has also taken a two spot tumble.
Both Alice Through the Looking Glass and X-Men: Apocalypse (review), are no longer sitting in any top ten positions. For movies of their magnitude, the success was short-lived.
Newcomer Independence Day 2: Resurgence has opened in third place, but given its less than stellar reviews, the movie is expected to fall a few spots in the coming weeks.
Interestingly, The Conjuring 2 (review), has actually climbed a spot from fifth to fourth place. This really is a win for horror movies.
Here are 10 most-watched movies in SA this past weekend:
- Finding Dory (including 3D and Imax)
