07-Jan-2009 • Quantum Of Solace

James Bond has beaten Batman at the Swedish box-office during 2008. "Quantum of Solace", the 22nd adventure for 007, smashed "The Dark Knight" down in to third place with an extra 170,000 ticket sales.

Unsurprisingly, "Mamma Mia!" - based on the ABBA musical - was the most watched film in the band's native country. Approximately 1 in 5 people in Sweden saw the film.

1. Mamma Mia! – 1,872,000 visitors
