Stephen Merchant’s heartwarming tale burst in to UK cinemas this week and punched its way to the top of the Box Office unseating the incumbent, The Lego Movie!
Here’s the nation’s data cruncher, Charles Gant on the matter:
“A British comedy about a family of wrestlers from Norwich, starring Florence Pugh, Jack Lowden, Vince Vaughn, Nick Frost and Lena Headey, and written and directed by Stephen Merchant? There is nothing about Fighting With My Family that screams commercial slam dunk, yet it has knocked The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part off the top of the UK box office, with debut takings of £1.62m (£2.02m including previews).”
