Through the screen, we seem to be able to see the waves of culture, colliding with each other and stirring up thousands of stories. May Day Golden Week, the window stared at by box office figures, reflects not only those marquee-like numbers, but also the epitome of life in our times. Nonsense aside, today we are going to talk about the stories that jumped on the screen during the five-day holiday.
Let's first look at the guy who attracts the most money, the box office of "Peacekeeping Anti-riot Team" is 400 million in five days.
This number, tsk, is really fragrant! This result is there, who dares to disagree? But behind the Facebook mask, there is a pig Bajie with a white powder face who has scored 5.6 points - Douban scores ruthlessly. "Sick in the head", who said that?
The box office got off to a good start, followed by a weak seat and running like a wild horse, but it turned out to be sunk behind the dust of "Spending Money at the End of the Road" and "The Siege of the Kowloon Walled City". Maoyan said that in the end, he may have to be quiet and be a little master with a box office of 600 million. Ha, this story of the mountains and seas almost touched the box office, but unfortunately the trend is like a slippery trend, and it is as steady as an undergraduate.
The comedy star lineup of "Spending Money at the End of the Road" is blinding, but Douban's 6.1 score is a bit embarrassing. We can't tolerate ignoring the performance just because it's a comedy, right? But this thing is fate, the box office is all the way north, challenging the 800 million sprint line, all relying on the main theme of "fate is up to me". It also verifies a truth, the roadshow is a theme card, and you can go without a high score.
Speaking of "The Siege of the Kowloon Walled City", this Hong Kong-style killing Matt directed by Zheng Baorui and starring Louis Koo, Sammo Hung, Ren Xianqi, Lin Feng, etc., is striding on the win-win road of word-of-mouth and box office, Douban 7.5, Maoyan 9.4, this score is incredible, remarkable! It has accumulated a box office of 80 million in eight days of screening, "I have a sick head".
After the official launch, this movie has been even more step-by-step, breaking the box office record for four days in a row, and soaring to the sky on the fifth day, with a total box office of 255 million in five days, and the ultimate mark, I am afraid that it is the devil number of "7 thorns and 8".
This Hong Kong-style action movie is really eye-catching, with a Douban score of 7.5 points and a Maoyan score of 9.4 points, from the screening to the official release, all the way to the runner-up position at the box office. Obviously, the market buys this kind of glittering plot with feelings, people are playing it for real, no, the final possible total box office prediction of 7 to 800 million is just around the corner.
As for the two Japanese cartoons, "Spy Playing House Codename: White" and "Howl's Moving Castle", let's not say much, these two works did not meet the expected "domineering president", it can only be said that "Spy's Wine" drank too much, drunk and swayed in the fourth place at the box office, and "Howl's Elevator Undefended" fell to fifth. Yang Mi and Yu Qian brought "There is nothing that can't be solved by a hot pot", and Zhang Zifeng and Hu Xianxu's star-studded "Journey Through the Moon", the performance is worse than "Pig Man Movie: Interstellar Operation", which is embarrassing.
To sum up, this year's May Day movie war is a typical ups and downs, unexpected and expected. Behind those blockbusters that make a lot of money, there is a sudden heat and cold of the audience's emotions, and those niche works that are silent at the bottom of the box office list may just not meet that understanding for the time being. Of course, time will tell if you win or lose in the end. We also have to be smart, don't be dazzled by numbers, how long a piece of sugar can honey, you have to chew to know.
