The end of 2023 has arrived, the New Year's Day films have been released one after another, the box office has gradually exceeded 100 million, and the word-of-mouth of many films has also been released.
After seeing the first round of feedback from the New Year's Day films, the audience who was watching on the sidelines sighed, "After a round of word-of-mouth, the New Year's Eve file and this year's National Day file are half a catty, and they lamented that there are so many bad movies on New Year's Day this year.
The first film to be criticized as ugly is the pre-sale box office champion "Twinkle Twinkle Twinkle Star" on New Year's Day, how amazing is the ugliness of this movie, search for the keyword "ugly" in real time on a social platform, you will find that 99% of the content in the square is the audience complaining about this movie, and some viewers even call it "fraud".
Some viewers opened the microphone passionately while watching the movie, and directly complained about the plot "boring, it has nothing to do with the drama version, there is no main plot, inexplicable", and the film even had a ridiculous interaction with the starring Qu Chuxiao's previous sci-fi work "The Wandering Earth".
As for the fans who walked into the cinema with great expectations, they were even more disappointed, not only did the movie have nothing to do with the drama version, but even it failed as an independent movie, it was simply shoddy, which reminded people of the feeling of watching the big movie "Love Apartment" in the cinema a few years ago, and bluntly said that they spent money in vain.
What's even more speechless is that the previous gimmick of snow in the cinema has greatly reduced the romantic index, and just looking at the scene picture can be called a "disaster".
The word-of-mouth of the movie's premiere has a great impact on the box office, and at present, the dynamic prediction of the all-day box office of "Twinkle Twinkle Twinkle" continues to decline, and it has dropped about a "Goldfinger" or a "Stealth" box office for a day, and even predicts that the box office is still declining.
The second thing that was rated as "ugly" and "bad movie" are the two Hong Kong films on New Year's Day, the lineup of these two Hong Kong films is stronger than the other, and the reputation is worse than the other.
"Stealth" starring Andy Lau and Lin Jiadong gathered four golden statue actors, a golden statue queen, and played the gimmick of "8 superstars joining forces" on the poster, but the plot is full of bugs, the character settings and character motivations are all flawed, and the female characters have no plot effect, and are ridiculed by the audience for "appearing just to die".
"Stealth" on a ticket-buying software, the software gave a score of 9.4 points, and the member gave a score of 7.9 points, which is a huge difference. Among the audience's hot reviews, there are less than 4,500 positive reviews and nearly 700 negative reviews, that is, nearly one-fifth of those who have watched the film have given negative reviews.
Another Hong Kong film "Goldfinger" is also a "top match", starring Andy Lau and Tony Leung, directed by Zhuang Wenqiang, and produced by Huang Bin, with the same team as "Wushuang", but with a more luxurious cast than "Wushuang", but the results are far inferior to "Wushuang".
Director Zhuang Wenqiang once said that he would not die if he was in Hong Kong movies, and the audience immediately slapped Zhuang Wenqiang in the face after watching "Goldfinger", mocking him for burying Hong Kong movies with his own hands in the end, and using the highest specifications.
Everyone thought that Tony Leung and Andy Lau's re-collaboration would allow the audience to see the famous scenes of hearty drama between actors like "Infernal Affairs", but Andy Lau was a tool man in it, and the director wanted to shoot the Hong Kong version of "The Wolf of Wall Street", but it turned out to be nondescript.
In recent years, Hong Kong films have declined, and this year it is rare to have two Hong Kong films with strong production teams and good casts, and audiences who want to support Hong Kong films plan to pick one to watch, but those who have watched it in the comment area directly replied "Both are bad".
Of course, in addition to the above three, there are two other comedies that are also mixed joys, that is, two comedies on New Year's Day, one is "The Annual Meeting Can't Stop" starring Dapeng and Bai Ke, and the other is "If You Are Honest Do Not Disturb 3" directed by Feng Xiaogang and starring Ge You and Shu Qi.
"The Annual Meeting Can't Stop" can be said to be the word-of-mouth dark horse of this New Year's Day file, with a lineup that can be called the lowest configuration among all the films in the New Year's Day schedule, but it has delivered the best results among all the films in the New Year's Day schedule. The total box office of the New Year's Day stalls exceeded 100 million on the second day. Of course, there are also shortcomings, although it is a comedy, it is not funny enough, and it is more decent.
Compared with "The Annual Meeting Can't Stop", the box office performance of "If You Are Honest Do Not Disturb 3" is very dismal, and the total box office on the day of release has not exceeded 20 million. At present, the film is the lowest box office among the five popular films in the New Year's Day file, and the industry predicts that the total box office in the mainland is only 112 million.
The discussion degree of "Do Not Disturb 3" is also the lowest among the five films, and some netizens even posted lamenting that "no one discusses "Do Not Disturb 3", this movie is too miserable".
Finally, let's take a look at the list of movies for the Spring Festival, is there anything you are looking forward to?
The National Day file and the New Year's Day file have disappointed the audience in two hot schedules, so I hope that the Spring Festival file can be a real dark horse and drive the audience's movie-watching boom.
