Tenet had spent two weeks during the month — the weeks ended Jan. 16 ans 23 — as the top-selling weekly disc, after topping the weekly chart three weeks in December.
Th month’s No. 2 seller was the movie that topped the weekly chart the first full week of 2021 — Paramount’s Love and Monsters, a post-apocalyptic romp about a man searching for his girlfriend in a world overrun by monsters.
The latest Liam Neeson actioner, Universal Pictures’ Honest Thief, released on disc the last week of 2020, was January’s No. 3 seller.
