The May 1st action movie "The Siege of the Kowloon Walled City" continues to be screened, and it has completed a beautiful reversal performance. In view of the excellent quality of the film, it will be won in the next May 1st file.

However, judging from the current pre-sale situation, the market lacks an absolute hot head, and the box office explosiveness of the schedule will drop significantly compared with last year.
"Peacekeeping Anti-riot Squad" is China's first commercial action film focusing on overseas peacekeeping, the story is based on the real peacekeeping mission of the Chinese peacekeeping police, the film is produced by Liu Weiqiang, directed by Li Dachao, and starring Huang Jingyu, Wang Yibo and Zhong Chuxi. Although the film is a warehouse film completed in 2021, with the blessing of Wang Yibo's fan super traffic, the pre-sale performance of the film is good, and it temporarily ranks first in the schedule.
"Peacekeeping Anti-riot Team" is Wang Yibo's second film to compete in the May 1st file after "King of the Sky", but on the one hand, the box office advantage of the main theme film has declined in the past two years; on the other hand, Wang Yibo's fans' box office blessing for Wang Yibo's film is gradually weakening, although the pre-sale of "Peacekeeping Anti-riot Team" ranks first in the schedule, it is far less than "King of the Sky" in the same period, and the final box office will also be greatly discounted.

The film was released in Japan last year, and the box office has exceeded 5 billion yen, which shows the IP appeal of the film. Since the pre-sale of the film opened, the pre-sale box office has been rising, and the first-day pre-sale is second only to "Peacekeeping Anti-riot Squad".
In recent years, the performance of Japanese animation in the mainland market has been outstanding, and it has continued to break through the box office ceiling. Refer to the film versions of Japan's super popular IP "Doraemon", "Detective Conan", and "One Piece", all of which have a box office of about 200 million.
"Spending Money at the End of the Road" is a comedy film directed and written by Wu Rina, directed by Yingda, and starring Jia Bing, Tan Zhuo, Xiao Shenyang, Yu Yang, and Dong Baobao. As the only pure comedy film in the schedule, it is strongly in line with the atmosphere of the May Day holiday, and the genre has obvious advantages, and the pre-sale of the film on the first day temporarily ranks third.
In recent years, the word-of-mouth evaluation of comedy films produced by Happy Twist has been relatively unstable. Although this film is a strong comedy genre and has certain advantages in the holiday schedule, in such a crowded schedule, whether word-of-mouth can support the film to go out of the box office for a long time remains to be tested by the market.
Japanese animation master Hayao Miyazaki's latest work "What kind of life do you want to live" fell 7.4% from Wednesday, and the single-day box office fell to more than 3.35 million, ranking third.

Hayao Miyazaki's "What kind of life do you want to live" is still racing against time, and the film will get a volume of 750 million+, but it is basically hopeless to hit 800 million. The film has long surpassed the film's domestic box office performance, and the Chinese mainland market has become the largest box office for "What Life Do You Want to Live".

The trend of "Let's Shake the Sun Together" is really stable, and it has resisted the decline for several weeks, and the popularity of the film has made it difficult to meet the box office volume, but the excellent trend proves that the film has good quality.
After the film was withdrawn during the Spring Festival, it was re-released on March 30 and achieved good box office results and audience response. The first release of the Spring Festival file and the screening before March 30 won a good positive review for the film, which had a certain role in promoting the box office.

The film schedule accounted for 5.4%, the box office accounted for 6.1%, and the cumulative box office of the film was 48.5 million in 22 days of release.
Although the Douban score of "The Big "Anti" faction is only 4.5 points, the cumulative box office is about to break through the 50 million mark, and the box office performance has indeed exceeded expectations, and there are no competing products for a month in a row to help a lot.
Directed by Gu Xiaogang and starring Jiang Qinqin, Wu Lei, Chen Jianbin , Wang Jiajia, etc., the anti-pyramid scheme film "The World of Grass and Trees" fell to more than 1.1 million in a single day, ranking sixth on the list, and the cumulative box office of the film reached 116 million in 22 days of release, temporarily ranking 13th in the 2024 film box office list. "The World of Grass and Trees" has maintained a volume of 1 million+ in a single day, and the film is about to go offline.
The film's word-of-mouth has been controversial since its release, but some comments believe that the film's anti-pyramid scheme theme is of practical significance, and it can be regarded as a literary film that has performed well at the box office since the beginning of this year.
Directed by Xu Wei and He Wenchao, produced by Tao Hong, starring Feng Shaofeng, Tao Hong, and Huang Jue, and starring Su Xin, Zhang Haiyu, Huang Mengying, Chen Yutong, and Yang Yeer, the crime suspense film "Yellow Sparrow is Behind!" was 760,000, ranking seventh on the list, and the film had a cumulative box office of 97.84 million in 23 days of release. "Yellow Sparrow is Behind!" fell below 1 million in a single day, and there is no suspense for the film to get 100 million+.
Produced by Er Dongsheng and written and directed by Hong Kong cutting-edge director Zhuo Yiqian, the film "Youth Diary" has 636,000 yuan, ranking eighth on the list, and the cumulative box office of the film is 9.85 million in 7 days of release. Although the Hong Kong word-of-mouth masterpiece "Youth Diary" is of high quality, it is difficult to complete a good fermentation.
Universal Pictures' "Kung Fu Panda 4" is 396,000, and in the market environment of no blockbuster new films, the film has returned to the top 10 on the list, and the cumulative box office of the film in 35 days of mainland release has reached 342 million, which can still only surpass "Kung Fu Panda" (186 million) released in 2008, temporarily ranking 9th in the 2024 film box office list.
The movie version of "Digimon 02: The First Call" derived from the famous Japanese animation IP "Digimon" has 305,000 yuan, returning to the top ten on the list, and the cumulative box office of the film in 6 days of release is 11.56 million, which still has not touched the opening result of "Digimon: The Final Evolution" (19.582 million).
