The Simpsons Movie barely keeps hold of the top spot for a fourth weekend, taking $22.3m from 49 territories, just beating The Bourne Ultimatum's $22.2m weekend take. The third instalment of the Bourne franchise shot up 423% this weekend after expanding in a further seven territories. The increase was catapulted by an impressive $13m opening in the UK in addition to a six-day $5.1m opening in Spain. Rush Hour 3 was up 18% after expanding in an additional 10 territories while Surf's Up and Stardust were up 45% and 63% respectively. A handful of Korean films made the top 20 - D-War and May 18 generated $5.9m collectively while new entries Underground Rendezvous and Changing Partners generated $2.5m and $1.8m respectively in their home territory. Filipino flick A Love Story and French romantic comedy Caramel were a few of the new entrants in the chart this week.
