The "Bear Bears" series of animated films have not only advanced by leaps and bounds in visual effects technology, but also in terms of core expression. They have broken through the label for young children and have become standard family films. .This has also allowed the "Bear Bears" movies in the past two years to receive very good feedback, both in terms of word-of-mouth and box office, and they have entered a new stage.
"Bear Bears: Reverse Time and Space" is the tenth film in the series, focusing on Bald Qiang. He accidentally gets a chance to choose his life again. In order to save Xiong Da and Xiong Er in the old timeline, Bald Qiang starts a wonderful time and space journey. adventure.
As a movie that marks the ten-year mark, this time "Bear Bears: Reversal of Time and Space" uses the concept of parallel time and space to connect the ten years together with innovative stories, and also adds more humanistic care. "Family Fun" has once again undergone a new upgrade.
In this Spring Festival period, "Bear Infested" still cannot be underestimated, and perhaps the box office will hit a new high.
In addition to "Bear Infested", there are many animated films during the Spring Festival every year. Now there are also "Bajie: The Lower World of the Canopy" and "Huang Pi: The God of Wealth Cat from the Sky". Although they are all rooted in traditional culture, there are also It has a new expression, but it is not easy to get high box office and compete with "Bear Bears", and basically they will become cannon fodder.
Because the Spring Festival stalls in previous years have already proved it.
Although there are still many films in the 2024 Spring Festival, the lack of heavy industry films has also made many people regret it, but there are still various types in specific subdivisions.
Judging from the media's current box office predictions, "Hot and Furious" ranks first, "Article 20" ranks second, and "Flying Life 2" and "Bear Infested: Reversal of Time" follow closely.
can see that the box office champion will be between "Hot" and "Article 20", that is, Jia Ling vs. Zhang Yimou!
Let’s wait and see who will succeed in this Spring Festival and who will have the last laugh!
