On January 10, 11 new films were released, but almost every one of them hit the street at the box office, and the top three in the daily box office list were still "Love", "Ip Man 4: The Finale" and "Manslaughter".
Among the 11 newly released films, the hottest one at the box office is the thriller movie "Shark Sea Escape", which was released in North America as early as last August, and I did not expect that it was also introduced.
"Shark Escape" grossed 11 million yuan on the first day and 7.3 million yuan at the box office the next day, becoming the hottest newly released movie in this period.
Unfortunately, the reputation of "Shark Sea Escape" is relatively bad, only 5.2 points on the Douban platform, the only point to watch is a few beautiful women, and the story plot is mediocre.
The Japanese animated film "Violet Eternal Garden: Forever and Automatic Hand Puppets" ranked second, with a box office of 8.82 million yuan on the first day and another 8.16 million yuan the next day, and the reputation is at the upper middle level, and the current Douban score is 7.7 points.
"Fight for Home", which was introduced after a year, grossed 8.49 million yuan on the first day, starring Dawn Johnson and Florence Pew.
Among these newly released films, it is a pity that Clint Eastwood's "The Lament of Richard Jewell" was only about 300,000 yuan on the first day, and the box office increased the next day, but it only earned 500,000 yuan, and the box office was only 800,000 yuan in two days.
"Richard Jewell's Lament" is a drama film, released in North America and rated as an R-rated film, with excellent reputation, scoring 8.3 points on the Douban platform, better than 78% of the feature films, Samsung and above the praise of more than 99%, and on the IMDb platform, the film also scored 7.7 points.
Clint Eastwood is now 90 years old, but his film production has been quite high in recent years, and most of them are high-quality.
The Mule in 2018 was an excellent film work, and in 2019, "The Lamentations of Richard Jewell" was presented, which was released in North America in December 2019, and finally introduced in Chinese mainland a month later, but unfortunately the box office was cold.
The Lamentations of Richard Jewell is based on true events, but the realistic style has a magical realism style, as the story itself is.
Richard Jewell, a security officer at the 1996 Olympic Games in Atlanta, discovered a bomb in the Olympic Park in time to stop the bombing, and for a time Richard Jewell became a hero, but the FBI suspected him as a suspect and suddenly lost his reputation, based on this story.
"The Lamentations of Richard Jewell" is a powerful film with a deep and reflective story, but the film's box office is very dismal.
