'Inglourious Basterds' storms UK box office

Quentin Tarantino's latest film Inglourious Basterds has gone straight to the top of the UK box office.

The movie, starring Brad Pitt, Christoph Waltz and Diane Kruger, pulls in £3.5 million on its opening weekend to knock last week's chart leader The Time Traveler's Wife into second place.

CG-animated comedy G-Force holds its place at number three, Ashley Tisdale's Aliens In The Attic falls two places to number four and the latest Harry Potter slips a place to five.

Wayans brothers spoof Dance Flick is the only other new release to make the chart at number six.
