has entered August, and the 2024 summer schedule has obviously entered the final stage.
Although there are still many new movies released every week, there are no more hits.
In the end, " catch the baby " continues to lead the summer season!
At present, "Catch a Baby" has surpassed " Article 20 " and ranks among the top three at the box office in 2024, continuing to sprint towards the annual box office championship.
At the same time, it also surpassed " The Richest Man in Xihong City " and was second only to " Walking Alone on the Moon " among the happy twist movies.
"Catch Me" can become a box office hit this summer, which is obviously the result of a combination of factors.
From the perspective of itself, first of all, it is the contribution of Shen Teng Ma Li, the national comedy duo.
Shen Teng and Ma Li’s appeal needs no more words. But such appeal is not achieved overnight.
From the drama stage to the sketch stage, and then to the big screen, after more than ten years of joint efforts, they have been constantly colliding with each other on the stage, and finally formed an unparalleled tacit understanding and impeccable ability, bringing the public time and time again. This wonderful performance was fully recognized and loved by hundreds of millions of viewers, and ultimately formed their appeal and influence.
Now, every time they work together in the same frame, the tacit cooperation can be vividly reflected. One look or one movement can make people laugh so hard that they fall over their feet with laughter. This kind of skill and charm is truly unique.
Although after "Charlotte ", there were not many movies where the two of them were truly combined, they were never absent from the sketch stage, and the public's expectations for "Shen Ma" are getting higher and higher. Today's "Catch a Baby" is a true in-depth cooperation with the same frame, which is really satisfying for the audience.
Of course, we can see that in "Catch a Baby", Shen Teng and Ma Li's relationship status is no longer what it was before. Shen Teng achieved a great turn and became the absolute leader of the family. Ma Li changed from a strong woman to a little woman and took a back seat. behind the scenes. It's also fresh and interesting.
followed by comic expressions suitable for all ages.
Although it still uses those clichéd comedy tricks, such as line-making and exaggerated performances, the down-to-earth expression and the tacit cooperation of Shen Teng and Ma Li still made the audience laugh and brought unexpected effects. Made it suitable for all ages.
Of course, in addition to Shen Teng and Ma Li’s tacit understanding, there are also the extreme contrasts between the actress Sarina, from running in the lane with a wheelchair to slam dunking, etc., which also makes people laugh.
Although Happy Twist has not made enough innovative breakthroughs and is still resting on its laurels, in today's environment, such a comedy expression is still recognized and welcomed by the audience.
Finally, it is the realistic topicality of the film.
In addition to comedy, "Catch a Baby" still has serious realistic topics, such as education, further education, children's training, family relationships, etc., especially the education and training of children, which made many people shudder at the training methods in the film, and This undoubtedly played a certain reflective role for the audience.
The issue of children's education and training is undoubtedly of great practical significance and value. Although the film is more like a fable-like story, the points involved are extremely powerful. Especially at the end of the film, it seems that parents and children have reached reconciliation, but the shadow left by childhood has long been lingering, and the parents' brainwashing excuses are even more chilling.
The reason why "Catch a Baby" can continue to lead the summer season is that other new films during the period fell short of expectations.
Except for " silently kills " before "Catch a Baby", the box office of subsequent new films has not been satisfactory.
Especially domestic films, such as " ", "'s safe evacuation from the 21st century ", " decrypting ", etc. These films with high hopes have many big investments and big productions, but the box office performance has been quite dismal. .The final box office of "Under the Stranger" and "Safe Evacuation from the 21st Century" was difficult to exceed 200 million, and "Decryption" was only around 500 million. Compared with its own size, such box office will naturally be a loss.
It can be seen that some of the films have good word-of-mouth performance, but due to various reasons ranging from publicity to their own niche, limited topicality, etc., they cannot reach more audiences, and the final box office performance is mediocre. The failure of new films such as
undoubtedly allowed "Catch a Baby" to maintain a considerable film schedule without causing a strong impact. Although the single-day box office performance was weak, it still has lasting growth power.
"Catch a Baby" is the only box office hit in the 2024 summer season so far. It is obviously not an accident, but the result of a combination of internal and external reasons. Although the competition in this summer season is still quite fierce, "Catch a Baby" still won the love of the audience and achieved good box office by virtue of 's strong cast, unique subject matter, and realistic topicality.
not only became another box office hit of Happy Twist, but also allowed Shen Teng and Ma Li to firmly occupy the number one box office position among domestic actors and actresses. Of course, this film is not perfect, there are still many problems, and there is still huge room for improvement. For Happy Mahua, we still need to continue working hard to return to the top.
