" Catch a Baby " has been released for 5 days, and the box office has exceeded 1.2 billion, and the box office is predicted to exceed 3.7 billion. This is the power of the combination of Shen Teng Ma Li.
It is no exaggeration to say that "Catch Baby" is scheduled to be the summer box office champion.
After all, the box office of "", which was released for 18 days, has just exceeded 1 billion, and the attendance rate is less than half of "Catch a Baby". Jackie Chan's new film " Legend " has a hard time breaking 100 million, and it has already been eliminated early.
's upcoming " Deadpool and Wolverine ", " Underworld ", " Decryption " and " Retrograde Life " may be the strongest competitors of "Catch a Baby", but apart from Xu Zheng's new film, Other films are not good enough in my opinion.
No matter how many elements a Hollywood film combines, the audience is really a little tired of it, and it will be uncomfortable to watch too many special effects.
Although "Under the Stranger" has Wu Ershan's blessing, after all, the domestic box office limit for fantasy movies is not high. A good reputation of 2 billion is the highest, and a bad reputation is estimated to be about 4 to 5 billion. After all, "The Trilogy of the Gods" 》The remaining power is still there, so this bit of face should be given to Wu Ershan.
As for Chen Sicheng's "Decryption", I am personally not optimistic about it, but it's hard to say. After all, Chen Sicheng has created a lot of miracles. In addition, Liu Haoran's image-subverting appearance this time, it seems that I will feel sorry for everyone if "Decryption" does not sell well at the box office. .
Although "Decryption" itself is very famous and is adapted from one of the favorite works of Mao Dun Literature Award winner Mai Jia, after all, the subject matter is not as popular as comedy or action movies, and "Tang Detective", which is integrated with suspense comedy, is even more popular. It's incomparable, so expectations at the box office must not be high.
Of course, considering Chen Sicheng's influence and the appeal of the original script, the movie can still sell at the box office. As for whether it will reach 1 billion or more, it really depends on how amazing the quality of the finished film is.
It is worth mentioning that "Catch a Baby" is not Shen Teng's only movie this summer. There is also another movie "" which is also scheduled to be released this summer. There is no other reason for
. I have been hiding it for almost 5 years. It has been 5 years since
was prepared for filming in 2019 and scheduled to be released this year. As one of Shen Teng’s transformational works, this film has long been considered, but there is no news that it has been scheduled. It coincides with "Catch a Baby" It was a hit at the box office, and if it hadn't been released, this film would have been really overcooked.
The original name of "Reverse Scale" is "Broad Daylight". I personally feel that the original name is more memorable and better at box office. I don't know the significance of changing the name.
The movie tells the story of Zun Fei (played by Shen Teng) and a group of brothers who became the right-hand men of wealthy businessman Huang Chaojin (played by Gao Jie). They prospered in Macau, known as the "Golden City", but in the process , Zun Fei and the "big brother" woman have mutual feelings for each other. In the entanglement of emotion and morality, they fall into a life and death puzzle...
I have to say that the subject matter is very Jianghu, and the introduction does not match the comedy at all. Indeed It can be said to be Shen Teng's transformation masterpiece. His role in the film is a boxer who once dominated the ring.
Shen Teng's transformation from a comedian to a big brother in the world is really a big step.
However, it is also very exciting. After all, I am used to seeing his joy. Playing a small character in a real way is undoubtedly a great test of acting skills.
Regarding the cast, there is only one old acquaintance of Shen Teng in "Reverse Scale", and that is Wei Xiang. The specific role played is unknown, but I think it has a bit of comedy.
As for the other actors, we are not unfamiliar with them.
The heroine is Zhang Yuqi . The woman who plays the role of "big brother" in the film, Zhang Yuqi is very satisfying regardless of her appearance or figure. This is not the first time that a big brother woman has played such a role, so she is undoubtedly the most reassuring.
As for the cp feeling with Shen Teng, I can’t feel it just thinking about it, but the effect is not bad. After all, Queen Zhang Yuqi is full of aura, and anyone who wants to do it has to match her.
The wealthy businessman Huang Chaojin is played by Gao Jie, whose face looks very familiar to him. Most of the characters he plays are bad guys, and his boss temperament is unmistakable.
In addition, the beauty Cai Wenjing has joined the cast. I don’t know what role she will play or whether it is related to Shen Teng’s character, but in terms of her appearance and acting skills, it is worth looking forward to.
As a transformational film, it is really surprising that Shen Teng took on such a film. He jumped directly from a drama film to an action film. His ambition is really quite big.
And it is said that the investment in "Reverse Scale" is as high as 250 million. It can be seen that the crew is also quite arrogant.
As for the director Wang Daqing, he is definitely a newcomer. He has always been a producer before. The only director he has ever been is a co-director, so the gold content is not high.
"Reverse Scale" is undoubtedly the first film independently directed by Wang Daqing.
But he also has another identity, that is, the son of the famous actor Wang Xueqi, which also explains why the first movie was so generous.
I have to say that it is definitely a wise move to find Shen Teng to play. After all, Shen Teng's box office appeal is too strong. Even if the quality of the movie is poor, it is not a problem to sell for 500 million yuan. If the quality is good, it is possible to sell 1 billion to 2 billion yuan. great.
Not to mention, with the huge sales of "Catch a Baby" and the summer season ahead, the box office of "Reverse Scale" will definitely not be bad.
As for the detailed release date, it has not been announced yet, but the trailer has been released, and the film crew also has plans to release it in the summer. If nothing else, it should be in mid-to-late August, so we will wait and see.
I wonder if everyone is looking forward to Shen Teng and Zhang Yuqi teaming up for CP?
