The crime movie "The Gathering at Southern Station" starring Hu Ge, Gui Lunmei, Liao Fan, Wan Qian and others will be released nationwide on December 6. The film premiered at the Cannes International Film Festival in May, and the audience who had watched the premiere gave the film a high rating.
"The Gathering at Southern Station" tells the story of Zhou Zenong, a leader of the theft gang who was framed and became a wanted criminal in a poorly managed and disorderly urban village. Zhou Zenong, who was fleeing to survive, saw the high amount of the police. After offering the bounty, in order to leave a living money for the family, he switched from survival to death, and finally completed the story of self-salvation.
, played by Zhou Zenong in "The Gathering at Southern Station" is not only Hu Ge’s rare negative role, but also the first time that Hu Ge has taken the lead in the true sense of the word. In the past 20 years, Hu Ge is mainly a TV celebrity. Although movies are occasionally involved, but in most cases they are guest appearances. The only starring film "After the Magnificence" before was a Hong Kong film, which could not reflect Hu Ge's box office appeal.
This time Hu Ge is the first leading actor to take the lead. He has not low popularity and good reputation in the film premiere. I believe that the box office results will not be too bad. However, Hu Ge is also a bit back this time. Siege of several strong opponents.
is the first sci-fi blockbuster "Interstellar Exploration" starring Hollywood male god Brad Pitt. The production cost is as high as 80 million US dollars. This film has been released today, one day earlier than "The Party at South Station", and it takes time. The first opportunity.
is then "Game of the Brave 2: Fighting the Peak" starring Hollywood tough guy Dwayne Johnson. Although the production cost of this movie has not been announced, the production cost of the previous game has reached 90 million US dollars, and the production cost of the sequel will only increase. High, and the temporarily upgraded "Game of the Brave 2" will be released on the same day as "The Gathering at South Station", facing head-on.
followed by the crime suspense action film "Whistleblower" starring Tang Wei and Lei Jiayin. Although this movie is not a major production movie, the two leading actors are quite popular, especially Tang Wei, who has won numerous awards in the field of film. He has starred in many classic works, has a good box office appeal, and his competitiveness cannot be ignored.
is finally the spy movie "Lanxin Theater" starring Gong Li and Zhao Youting. Not to mention, the starring Gong Li alone is enough to make other movies unable to take lightly.
Although there are many competitors, but fortunately among these opponents, the "Whistleblower", which was released in September, was temporarily changed in order to avoid the temporary change of the National Day file. Now there are only a few simple posters near the release. Stills, there are not too many advertisements, obviously insufficient preparation.
"Interstellar Exploration" has Hollywood male god Brad Pitt starring, but the film's reputation in North America is not very satisfactory, and the box office is not high. If there is no miracle, it will be difficult to sell in the Chinese market.
"Lanxin Theater" starring Gong Huang, but there are many black and white scenes throughout the film, this style of film may not meet the taste of the public, the box office is estimated to not be very high.
Looking at all factors, the biggest threat to "The Gathering of South Station" is only "Game of the Brave 2". On the one hand, the starring Dashi Johnson is very popular; on the other hand, the global box office of the previous film is as high as 64 Billion, and 490 million box office in China, with a huge audience base.
Whether "The Gathering at South Station" can break through in the fiercely competitive December depends on whether it can withstand the attack of "Game of the Brave 2". Which movie will you support?
