This year's summer season has just passed two-thirds, but the overall performance of the film market is far less than expected, and only one film " Chinese Medicine Doctor " has grossed more than 1 billion yuan.
In the past two weeks, due to the impact of the epidemic, many films such as "Sniper", "Rushing Out of the Earth", "Chosin Lake", "Pipilu and Rusisi's Canned Villain", "Five Teenagers Who Splash water" and "Chosin Lake", which were most expected to be regarded as "rescue works", were withdrawn, making the already somewhat cold summer program "worse".
However, in the past two days, a number of films have been announced to be promoted or finalized, and in the remaining days of August, there are still some films worth watching in the theater.
The theater is strictly epidemic-proof, and we watch the movie safely!

<h2>Imported films are waiting for you in late August: Pixar's latest animation and Dutch brother's new films</h2>
After the Tanabata file, the two foreign films scheduled yesterday have blown a different breeze for the film market.
The latest original animated film, Summer Friends Sunny Day, produced by Disney Pixar Animation Studios, will be released nationwide on August 20.
On the occasion of Pixar Animation Studios' 35th anniversary, this is a coming-of-age story about an unforgettable summer full of gelato, pasta and endless motorcycle rides:
Luca travels with his new best friend, but all the fun is threatened by a hidden secret — the two of them are sea monsters from another world beneath the surface.
Created by the original team of "Dream Quest", produced by Chief Creative Officer Peter Doggett, and directed by Ericon Casa Rossa, who was nominated for the Oscar for "Luna", the film draws inspiration from the scenery of the Mediterranean coast of Italy to create a beautiful, romantic, retro and magical summer paradise for everyone.

At the tail end of the summer season, this standard popcorn film that combines action, sci-fi, and adventure elements will take the audience on a thrilling journey through outer space.
<h2>The word-of-mouth masterpieces that have been released can still be supported if they have not yet been seen</h2>
Of course, in the remaining days of August, several well-received films have been released, and audiences who have not yet seen it can still go to the theater to support it.
For example, director Chen Musheng's posthumous work, the action film "Anger and Serious Case" starring Zhen Zidan and Xie Tingfeng. The film has a Douban score of 7.6 points, which is currently the best word-of-mouth film in the same period.
In the film, Zhang Chongbang (Zhen Zidan), the inspector of the Serious Crimes Unit, reunites with Qiu Gangao (Xie Tingfeng), who is a former comrade-in-arms and is now the leader of the bandits, and Su orders the two to entangle again, how zhang Chongbang has made a decision on all grievances...
It should be said that "Fury And Serious Case" is the best Hong Kong police film in the past two years, with fancy car chase scenes, fights, explosion scenes, and gunfight scenes that make people's adrenaline soar, which are absolutely exciting;
At the same time, in terms of plot and character shaping, the film reminds people of the "double male" setting used by old Hong Kong films in those years, from the former master-apprentice friends to now standing on the opposite side, the relationship between the two is full of tension and makes people sigh.
Especially Tse Ting-feng, who has played the villain again after many years, his performance is very amazing. The Ah Ao he plays has gone from a highly respected rising star in the police world to a prisoner under the ranks of a prisoner, to an arrogant and obedient bandit leader, the fate of the ups and downs is somewhat painful, and the behavior of treating life as grass and mustard makes people hate it.
Another film worth mentioning, "Midsummer Future", directed by Chen Zhengdao and starring Zhang Zifeng, Wu Lei, Hao Lei, Zu Feng, etc., is considered by many to be the "best Chinese youth film" in the past few years.
In the film, you can see the real and funny campus life, you can see the young boys and girls' ignorant love and bravery to face themselves and accept their own growth, and you can also see the tearful and empathetic details of family life.
"Midsummer Future" conveys the brave and warm power, touching and inspiring countless audiences. "Bravely facing and accepting is the first step to growth, and every bravery will lead us to a broader and boundless future."
