As per a news story earlier in the week, the Transformers Movie has started showing in some UK cinemas this morning, from 00:01, and then every few hours from 09:00 until 23:00 on Sunday. After that you'll have to wait for Friday 27th official full release.
It will be interesting to see how the film does in the UK, with both Harry Potter already out (with the latest book on sale today) and The Simpson's coming out on Thursday / Friday (which has a lot more in-cinema advertising). Current box-office takings, as per Box Office Mojo, stand at $389,120,786.00 (242 million state-side and 146 million dollars international (with South Korea the second highest grossing with 38 million. The UK is, on average, around 3-5% of the US takings, so it could add around another 12 million dollars to figure. The film is likey to end grossing around 450 million (with other countries yet to have the film) putting it above Spider-man (1,2 and 3).
It's interesting to note that Transformers is listed as the No.1 film in the following countries:
- Lithuania
- Russia
- Turkey
- Ukraine
Harry Potter is No.1 in 36 territories.
