Mythical odyssey 10,000 B.C. has left its cinematic counterparts back in the dark ages after topping the box office chart in its first week of release.

The pre-historic film, directed by Roland Emmerich, clawed in more than GBP1.93 million, bumping last week's (begs10Mar08) number one, Vantage Point, into second place.

The Game Plan beat off the competition to stay at number three, while Scarlett Johansson and Natalie Portman's historical drama The Other Boleyn Girl drops two places to number four and The Bank Job completes the top five at five. (CAM/WNWCCB/MT)
