BEIJING, Oct. 14 (Xinhua) -- Domestic disaster film "The Captain" topped the Chinese mainland box office Sunday, the China Movie Data Information Network said Monday.

Coming in the third is suspense film "A Witness out of the Blue," with ticket sales reaching 105 million yuan since its debut on Saturday.
