In the post-pandemic era,
The mainland film market has been in the rhythm of starvation in the cold gear period and the hot file period
Tomorrow, the May Day box office war will officially start.
During the 5-day long holiday, there were actually 12 new domestic films fixed.
The number is 5 more than the Spring Festival stalls, which is really crowded!
Why does everyone like to squeeze the big slot?
Here are two diagrams:
I have to make Pocket Jun sigh:
A solid case of super inner volume.
This is an anxious time when everyone wants to pinch the tip!
Judging from the current pre-screening data
These 13 new Films can be divided into 3 echelons.
[The first echelon] is expected to break 300 million+

Pocket Jun will also go to the theater tomorrow after tomorrow to watch the movie madly.
Bring you the truth movie reviews for the first time.
The following, based on the predicted box office,
From high to low, let's make a comprehensive preview of the new films in the mainland film market in May!
May 21
Fast & Furious 9
Van Diesel is a hot drag racing action movie
Predicted box office: 2 billion
After Disney announced the postponement of the release of "Black Widow",
The global cinema industry is lamenting: the rescue work has actually run away again!
Fortunately, Universal Pictures is not at all intimidated,
"Fast and Furious 9" insisted that the North American schedule on June 25 was also through public relations, and the mainland was scheduled for May 21, more than a month earlier than the North American hometown.
It's amazing!
In 2011, with Dwayne Johnson joining "Rapid 5", the flying car scene became more and more grand and fancy, setting off a fiery speed and passion in China.
In fact, before "Reunion 4" exploded 4.2 billion,
The "Fast and Furious" series has always been Hollywood's number one gold-sucking IP in China
In 2015,
"Rapid Shock 7" directed by Wen Ziren
In the mainland, it swept 2.4 billion yuan to press "Reunion 2" to 1.4 billion, surpassing its home in North America in one fell swoop.
In 2017,
"Super 8" beat "Reunion 3" to win 2.6 billion yuan at the mainland box office
Chinese mainland, once again surpassing its home in North America and becoming the largest ticket warehouse in the series.
Even works such as "Fast and Furious: Special Ops" exploded 1.4 billion, winning the second place in imported films in 2019.
this year
Coinciding with the 20th anniversary of The Fast and the Furious,
In the latest ninth part,
Universal invited back Chinese director Lin Yibin, who had directed "Rapid Shock 3" to "Rapid Shock 6" consecutively.
After the absence of "Rapid Shock 7" and "Rapid Shock 8",
He is sure he will direct the final three works of the series:
"Rapid Shock 9", "Rapid Shock 10", "Rapid Shock 11"
Give this blockbuster series, born at the beginning of the millennium, a perfect ending.
Since Lin Yibin had returned, the iron brother Cheng Kang naturally could not be absent.
In the first official trailer of "Super 9", South Korea came back from the dead and made a surprise appearance, which triggered heated discussion.
Han Ge's hair is cut short, and what remains unchanged is:
Still cool drift technology, and a small habit of snacking.
In the past 20 years, the "Rapid" series has become longer and longer.
It also gradually fell into an aesthetic fatigue audience felt that racing on the earth was no longer satisfied, so they began to ridicule so cattle, at first it was not up to the sky
I didn't expect that,
In the latest trailer for "Rapid Shock 9", there is a suspected shot of going to space
It seems that the crew of "Quick Shock" really listens carefully to the opinions of the masses, even if it is ridiculed, it must become a reality.
In order to fill the gap between the two macho men, Dwayne Johnson and Jason Statham,
"Rapid 9" invited "Zhao Xina" John Senna, who also came from WWE wrestling
He will play Jacob, the younger brother of Boss Van
Because of some old things, the brothers are fiercely fighting and turning against each other.
Whether in terms of popularity, curry position, or male hormone index, John Senna cannot be compared with Dwayne Johnson and Statham.
Therefore, the Chinese box office goal of "Rapid Shock 9" is: 2 billion.
April 30
"Your Wedding"
Xu Guanghan Zhang Ruonan youth romance film
Two years ago, Douban 9.2's Taiwan drama "Want to See You" swept the whole network,
Let The handsome and acting treasure boy Xu Guanghan become a new idol in the two sides of the strait and three places
Although he has turned 30 this year, he is full of youthful feelings.
Playing the high school student Li Ziweilai, it is not against the harmony at all, wearing a white shirt, laughing is also very healing.
In the same year, he also participated in the Taiwanese annual masterpiece "Sunshine" of Douban 8.5, which vividly expressed the dark expression of the character Ahao's inner depression.
A hot drama, a movie,
Xu Guanghan has become completely popular, with more than 6.87 million Weibo fans and soft advertising.
Seeing such a high-quality popular student,
Xu Guanghan was immediately taken in by the sensitive filmmakers, and pulled him to co-star in this "Your Wedding" with the "Mainland Little Flower Zhang Ruonan", who had starred in "Sorrow Against the River" and "If the Voice Doesn't Remember"
It tells the love story of Zhou Xiaoqi, a swimming student, and You Yongci, a transfer student, who have gone all out for fifteen years.
Similar to Zhao Wei's "To Youth" that broke 719 million,
This young film full of handsome men and beautiful women is also telling a love story with a long span.
Actors need to go from high school students all the way to social work.
However, judging from the ultimate trailer,
The love between the two must have been whipped by reality, and the male protagonist with tears in his eyes,
At the wedding of the heroine, reminisce about the love of the two people from the school uniform to the wedding dress
"I just want to be with you for the rest of my life, but we can't do it anymore"
"If I hadn't met You Yongci, wouldn't I have been hurt, wouldn't I have been so miserable" and many other lines reveal that he is not actually a groom.
From all indications,
This Xu Guanghan popularity monetization youth film,
It is very promising to lead the entire May 1st slot in the box office list and hit the total box office of 900 million.
"On the Cliff"
Zhang Yimou Zhang translated spy war films
Since filming "Shadow" 3 years ago,
Zhang Yimou, who is more than a year old, has opened a crazy filming work mode.
"One Second" has been released, Douban 7.8, box office 130 million
"Rock Solid" and "On the Cliff" have been completed
"Sniper" is being filmed.
Guoshi still maintains a vigorous vitality for film creation.
For movie fans, it is a great blessing.
This Time on May Day, Zhang Yimou joined hands with "One Second" to translate Zhang and Liu Haocun in the original BanKasi
The first spy genre film "On the Cliff"
The background of the film is set in the icy harbin,
Guoshi focused the camera on Harbin in the 1930s,
Focus on the battle of wits and competition between Communist agents and the Japanese puppet government.
Vast snowfields, cold ice city.
In the dark streets and alleys, dangers and dangers are everywhere;
Gunfights, speeding cars, confrontations, games
Outline the fierce game and undercurrent of the enemy and our camp;
The story tells the story of four Communist agents who had received special training in the Soviet Union and formed a mission team and returned home to carry out a secret operation code-named "Utra".
Because of the betrayal of the traitors, from the first moment of parachuting and landing, they were already in the net laid by the enemy.
Can comrades get out and can the task be accomplished?
Art, color and style are the most noteworthy points of Zhang Yimou's films.
The main colors of this "On the Cliff" are undoubtedly black and white.
Quiet nights, dark streets, heavily built buildings, large patches of darkness make the white ice and snow particularly harsh.
And the characters are shuttled through such a black and white labyrinth
Black clothes, black pants, and black hats blend in with the night to create a gloomy and serious atmosphere.
The most vivid is the flame that jumps on the fingertips at the beginning of the film, and the blood that flows on the face
They are all full of danger, and they also tighten the thrilling and escalating emotional tension between the enemy and the enemy camp in the black and white world.
In the preview released earlier, the most shocking scene is:
Zhang Yi was hit by an electric shock and reached its peak.
The strong beam of light from the top of his head portrays the entire scene in a terrifying way, and also strengthens the distortion of Zhang Yi's face when he was tortured
And yu Hewei played the character, the identity of the character is a mystery
Dressed as a black spy, he holds secret intelligence and travels between the black and white worlds
Frowning and frowning with a look of indifference, like a lonely but astute detective who is extremely lonely but quick.5
The darkness and gloominess of the film noir style perfectly fit the suspense and mystery contained in the spy war genre.
Regardless of the final box office,
Zhang Yimou's own new exploration of aesthetics has achieved a breakthrough in genre and style of Chinese films.
May 1
The Secret Visitor
Aaron Kwok X Duan Yihong X Zhang Zifeng suspense reasoning film
Chen Zhengdao's suspenseful reasoning film has an indissoluble relationship with the May 1st file.
May 1st in 2014,
Xu Zheng Mo Wenwei led the "Hypnosis Master", Douban 7.6, box office 273 million
2017 May 1st,
Huang Bo co-starred with Xu Jinglei's "Memory Master", Douban 7.1, box office 292 million.
Last year, iQiyi Mist Theater's two divine works "The Hidden Corner" and "The Silent Truth" swept the whole network, which also pushed the reasoning film and television drama works to the outlet.
This year's May Day, Chen Zhengdao's new work "Secret Visitor" is really too much to look forward to.
A harmonious family of four, living in a strange guest Duan Yihong,
As the door of memory opens again, the past resurfaces, and one "strange thing" follows.
The originally harmonious family is no longer peaceful, and the rift in the family begins to gradually unfold
The eerie family atmosphere, the confusing family relationships, and the crumbling.
According to past practice, the director of the mystery film will give fans some tips through the material.
Take a look at this main poster:
Aaron Kwok, with his hands folded, looking straight ahead
Empty in his hands but confident, he seemed to hold the head of the whole family.
He has always belonged to the "upper side", looking down on others.
As a mystery visitor,
Duan Yihong sat slightly defensively, and his eyes also seemed to shrink
The bangs are long and slightly sloppy
Did he break in voluntarily, or was he forced to stay?
Zhang Zifeng held a paintbrush in one hand and held his head in the other, as if thinking,
There was a hint of gloom in his eyes beyond his age.
The painting in his hand, magnified and looked closely, turned out to be a terrifying alienated Mickey Mouse!
It is what kind of shadow can be used to draw such a distorted painting with childish brushstrokes.
Xu Weining is the most prominent one in the poster.
Holding a sharp knife in his hand and raising it, his expression was cold.
It seems that her relationship with her husband is not as male and female as it seems.
The knife in her hand, was she trying to protect herself, or was she trying to stab someone?
The youngest Rong Zishan was playing the piano, but he was not concentrating
In the confused and innocent eyes, there is still some truth that is unknown.
More importantly,
In the poster, none of them looked at each other, but instead they both broke the fourth wall and stared at the audience
At first glance, this home looks tall and tall, and the industrial style comes with a high-cold style.
But if you look closely, it is actually cold.
Four-sided cement walls, cracked tables,
It hints at the perfect middle-class home on the surface, but the inside is torn apart.
The film's English title, Home Sweet Home, is unusually bloody in design.
The red font in the lower right corner, "Welcome home," looks really shocking.
Family, confined space, mysterious visitors, Chen Zhengdao's work this time is too poignant in the hearts of fans of suspense and reasoning films.
"Chasing the Tiger and Catching the Dragon"
Gu Tianle led the four major film emperors anti-corruption police bandits
The 1970s, the British colonial period
Hong Kong police and bandits colluded, the underworld ran amok, and the amount of corruption and bribery once reached 10 billion, equivalent to 500 billion today.
In 1973,
The Independent Commission Against Corruption in Hong Kong was officially established, and after the establishment of ICAC, it cracked down on corruption in the police force.
"Chasing the Tiger and catching the dragon" is born out of this era background.
The heinous magnates who maintain the old order,
Against the righteous men who are fierce,
How to establish a new order under the confrontation between good and evil,
Such a strong conflict will surely make the film look good.
And the tyrants in the context of this era,
It has also become the darling of many film and television works because of its legendary life experiences.
Crippled Hao, Inspector 500 million, etc. are classic screen characters that are deeply rooted in the hearts of the people in the peak era of Hong Kong films.
4 years ago,
In "Chasing the Dragon", also directed by Wang Jing,
LeiLuo, played by Andy Lau, and Crippled Hao, played by Zhen Zidan, staged a confrontation like Mars hitting the earth
In the end, this film won a good box office of 577 million with a good reputation of Douban 7.2.
It has become Wang Jing's best-known work in recent years.
And this "Chasing the Tiger and Catching the Dragon" directed by Wang Jing is also quite popular.
From the previous two PK, it became the four film emperors to catch and kill the "black and white double brakes" of the Independent Commission Against Corruption, Gu Tianle, Lin Jiadong and "lame" Liang Jiahui Inspector Wu Zhenyu launched a peak battle of good and evil duels.
Hong Kong in the 1970s,
Bribery is sparse and ordinary,
The dirt of corruption is everywhere in society.
Ordinary people dare to be angry and dare not speak.
Gu Tianle and Lin Jiadong
Joined the Icac with a strong sense of justice,
A road to the downfall of the empire of power and money, which turned over for the clouds and overturned the hands for the rain, was staged.
In order to play the lame hao,
Leung Ka Fai has to do special effects makeup every day,
To achieve the image of the character, it is necessary to have two clumps of cotton in the mouth at all times.
In addition, during the filming, whether there is a camera facing him or not, Leung Ka Fai must be lame inside and outside the scene.
Unfortunately, the film was not saved in the end
"Empire of Money: Battle at the Pinnacle" has a more selling title
Instead, he chose the slightly awkward "Chasing the Tiger and Catching the Dragon",
The cost of communication has risen sharply, and the possibility of a box office explosion on May Day is really unlikely.
May 28
"Doraemon With Me 2"
Doraemon Tear-Jerking Animated Theatrical Version
Predicted box office: 240 million
Seven years ago,
"Doraemon" the first three-dimensional image theatrical version of "Doraemon: Walk with Me" turned out to be a double harvest Douban 8.0, box office 530 million, once became the first Japanese film in the mainland box office.
Until later, was "Your Name." with 570 million.
However, full of feelings, still earned enough tears from movie fans,
Every child who was bullied in childhood wants to have an omnipotent friend like Doraemon around him.
As the point line from the first part says:
"The road of life is destined to be walked alone, but thank you for having you with me."
Such excellent word-of-mouth and box office naturally led to the release of the sequel "Doraemon: Walk with Me 2".
Adapted from the original manga "Grandma's Memories",
All the stories are inseparable from Nobita's grandmother's words, that is:
"How nice it would be to see Nobita's bride!"
In order to fulfill Grandma's wishes,
Nobita and Doraemon will travel through the past, present, and future for a wonderful adventure.
From the birth of "Doraemon" to the present,
Nobita and Shizuka's "Love Run" has gone through half a century
Nobita is not smart, not brave, afraid of things,
But he always leaves the best for Shizuka and builds a hard armor for Shizuka.
Therefore, Nobita, who has been waiting by Shizuka's side, is already the most perfect partner.
For many post-80s-90s who have watched "Doraemon" since childhood, seeing the picture of Nobita marrying Shizuka, there will also be a feeling of "Grandpa Green Knot" in the depths of their hearts, after all, Nobita, who has accompanied us for so long, is finally married.
It turns out that:
It doesn't really matter if you can't become the cattle people that everyone expects.
With a family who loves you, you will never be useless.
Judging from the current high reputation of Douban 7.8,
"Doraemon: Walk with Me 2" continues the previous game, tear-jerking
When you go to the theater on May 28, you must remember to bring tissues, it is easy to cry into tears.
As one fan put it:
"Really thanks to Doraemon and Nobita,
Always being with ordinary people like me all the time makes me feel like I'm no longer alone."
Sunshine Robber
Li Yu X Ma Li x Song Jia Crime comedy
After "Red Face", "Guanyin Mountain", "Secondary Exposure", and "All Things Grow"
Chinese film industry golden partners Li Yu and Fang Li transformed into commercial productions,
The new work "Sunshine Robber" does not have Fan Bingbing, but a fierce tiger has come.
As early as the project establishment stage, director Li Yu and producer Fang Li made a crazy decision:
Instead of computer CG, you have to shoot live with real tigers.
ultimately
Throughout the filming,
The crew found 4 tigers
Three are the domestic Siberian tigers,
Responsible for the film's tiger infancy and childhood scenes;
And the Bengal tiger "Shika" from Hollywood has the heaviest role,
A lot of body movements and expressions need to be filmed.
This Bengal tiger,
He starred in Jean Jacques Arnold's 2004 film "Tiger Brother Tiger Brother".
In addition to inviting the tiger star, the "Sunshine Robber" crew also invited "Tiger Brother Tiger Brother" and "Wolf Totem" Canadian beast trainer Andrew Simpson to join.
On the shooting scene, help Shika complete the difficult look, as well as various complex emotions such as grievances, surprises, losses, and happiness.
The film tells that Song Jia's tiger "Nana", who is regarded as her daughter, is lost, and in the process of searching for Nana, she and Ma Li and her party come together, and a fantastic tiger hunting adventure begins.
Director Li Yu said bluntly:
"In the current era, everyone is more or less hiding themselves in life communication.
I want to break this state of affairs and talk to this unworthy world in a mischievous way, and release the enthusiasm and hope in my heart. ”
"True Three Kingdoms Matchless"
Gu Tianle X Wang Kai Costume game adaptation of action movies
Predicted box office: 30 million
Due to the epidemic situation,
Since the release of "Crime Scene" on October 12, 2019
The majority of movie fans have been almost a year and a half
I have not seen "the first labor model of Hong Kong cinema" Gu Tianle.
Do you miss Gu Zai a little?
Don't worry!
Start with may 1st's "True Three Kingdoms Matchless"
In the next 2 years, Gu Tianle will have 9 works participating in the exhibition.
Watch 4-5 Gu Tianle movies a year,
That's absolutely no problem!
After all, he does not marry, does not have a baby, does not shoot variety shows
In addition to making movies, playing by hand, and donating to Hope Primary School, there is no fourth hobby.
The following 9 parts:
1. True three kingdoms unparalleled
2. Searching for Qin
3. Tomorrow's Battle
4. Chasing the Tiger and catching the dragon (fixed on May 1)
5. Anti-Corruption Storm 5
6. A glimmer of life
7. Beyond evil deeds
8. Sweep 3
9. Wind forest mountain fire
I have to say,
One Gu Tianle is equal to half of the sky in Hong Kong films
Gu Tianle stopped working for a year, and Hong Kong movies will be paralyzed!
The "True Three Kingdoms Matchless" released on May 1 this time is adapted from
A classic Japanese PS platform fighting game that has been popular for 20 years
The content of the game, mainly the operation
A character in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms
Go and participate in the famous battles of the Three Kingdoms period,
Experience "One Husband, One Man"
And the cool feeling of "taking the enemy will be the first level like probing the bag".
One day before the release,
An action adaptation of the game led by Gu Tianle
#真, Three Kingdoms Unparalleled # Mainland pre-sale box office is only 1.42 million.
Only ranked 7th in the May 1st gear, it has completely fallen behind.
In fact, from the shooting time of the film, it can be seen:
"True Three Kingdoms" is most likely a big bad movie.
As early as September 2017, it was announced that filming had started in New Zealand
In 2018, the development conference said:
"True Three Kingdoms" is scheduled to be released in the summer of 2019.
However, I don't know what the reason is, it dragged on for nearly 2 years.
However, the ugly daughter-in-law is going to see her in-laws after all.
In fact, how ugly this "daughter-in-law" really is, it has already begun to be seen.
This piece has two huge thunderbolts.
1) Kas is unconvincing
Wang Kai plays Cao Cao, Gu Tianle plays Lü Bu, Han Geng plays Guan Yu, Yang Youning plays Liu Bei, Naza plays Sable Cicada, Lin Xue plays Dong Zhuo, and Liu Jialing plays the mysterious Lord of the Forged Sword Castle.
Especially Wang Kai's version of Cao Cao & Han Geng's version of Guan Yu, the actor's own temperament and historical figures are completely incompatible,
Where is there such a righteous and awe-inspiring Cao Cao
Where is there such a weak second master Guan?
It is really a perfect candidate in the hearts of movie fans, and the difference is 108,000 miles.
2) Special effects drama is like an online game
Judging from the latest revealed ultimate trailer,
The special effects of "True Three Kingdoms" are really difficult to say, the weapons have not yet touched people, they all flew up, and there was no sense of physical gravity at all. It's a very different experience than when playing games.
Pocket Jun really feels: I have invited so many stars, and I have no money to do special effects.
Since the pre-sale is too poor,
The first day of "True Three Kingdoms" is only 3.1%, and it will definitely withdraw from the Competition for May Day.
It is expected that the final mainland box office will be below 30 million, which is another special effects blockbuster with a huge loss.
It is reported that
The film was basically determined to land on the national streaming media at 4 p.m. on May 6.
Fans can personally test how bad "True Three Kingdoms" really is.
