Brad Pitt war drama Fury has finally ended the domination of Gone Girl which has topped the box office for the last three weekends, pulling in $2.557m on its opening weekend.

Fury, set in the final stages of World War II and focussing on a hardened tank crew sent a raw recruit to fill a vacancy for the push, narrowly held off the film starring Ben Affleck, Neil Patrick Harris and Rosamund Pike, which took $2.186m over the weekend.

Gone Girl’s total takings now exceed $19m in Australia.

Tammy, The Boxtrolls and TMNT did pretty well for not being on any screens at all.
