Spider-Man 3 reigns supreme at the box-office on both sides of the Atlantic, despite some mixed reviews. Interesting to see Mr Bean fend off competition from the far superior comedy Blades Of Glory in the UK chart. I'm pleased that Bridge To Terabithia seems to have become a decent alternative for all arachnid-haters, too. Shame the wonderful This Is England languishes in the chart purely because of bad distribution, though...
