In a quiet week at the Australian box office, there was only one new entry in the American war film The Outpost which found itself in the number four spot over the weekend.
The Outpost took the spot of horror film Antebellum as the rest of the top five looks entrenched with each film ranging from 3-7 weeks in the top spots.
Trolls World Tour stayed #1 for the third week in a row as Tenet continues its slow slide down the Australian box office, seven weeks after its release.

#3 Tenet $347,599
While it is sliding down the Australian box office as its weekend totals continue to dip, Chris Nolan's sci-fi blockbuster continues to add to its overall total which now sits at $11.34m.

#4 The Outpost $285,735
The only new film to join the top five this week is based on a 2012 non-fiction book, The Outpost: An Untold Story of American Valor by Jake Tapper which covers the Battle of Kamdesh in the Afghan war. The film averaged $1,742 on 164 screens.
#5 Cats & Dogs 3: Paws Unite $205,649
The kid-friendly release finds itself in the top five for the second week in a row thanks in part to the school holiday surge after it averaged $1,077 on 191 screens.
