Bad Neighbours takes $4.7m in second weekend as Amazing Spiderman 2 plummets
Seth Rogen-Zac Efron comedy Bad Neighbours nearly doubled its takings and topped box office sales for the second weekend in a row.
The film posted $4.723m in ticket sales this weekend, $2m more than the $2.631m it made last week, and held its lead over The Other Woman which remained the second most popular cinema choice in its third week after the film starring Cameron Diaz topped box office sales on launch.
Chef, starring writer and director Jon Favreau alongside Robert Downey Jr and Scarlett Johansson, was the third biggest film on its debut weekend, despite taking less than $1m.
The film, distributed by Studio Canal, made $826,651 this weekend, just ahead of The Grand Budapest Hotel released April 14, which made $825,396.
The Amazing Spiderman 2: Rise of Electro dropped below The Grand Budapest Hotel, as its takings fell to $784,555 in its third week, ranking fifth in the box office table despite being on more screens than any other film except Bad Neighbours.
