[dutchman]

The Wolf of Wall Street has topped the UK box office for the third weekend running.

Martin Scorsese and Leonardo DiCaprio's fifth collaboration earned £2.3 million to hold off competition from 12 Years a Slave and Zac Efron's new release That Awkward Moment at the chart summit.

The Wolf of Wall Street has now grossed nearly £15 million, making it Scorsese's most successful film in the UK ahead of Gangs of New York and The Departed.

I, Frankenstein, Aaron Eckhart's critically-panned modern reworking of Mary Shelley's classic story, landed at number four with £811,365 in box office takings.

Frozen, which will be re-released in a new sing-along version next month, is still performing strongly at number five with £36 million earned in total from UK cinemas.

Elsewhere, Peter Berg's Lone Survivor entered the chart at number six with £751,564.
