International superstar Jackie Chan ushered in the biggest failure in his decades-long acting career this summer.
The big-budget movie " legend " starring him has been released for more than 30 days, but the cumulative total box office has not reached 80 million yuan. This inevitably makes domestic audiences think that Jackie Chan is really out of date now and that he no longer has any box office appeal.
"Legend" is the sequel to the classic film " Myth ". 19 years ago, "Myth" also starred Jackie Chan. It created very impressive box office results once it was released. At the same time, it also became the heart of most audiences. A classic that cannot be surpassed.
And through this film, the audience also saw Jackie Chan's acting skills. Many people think that he could have won an actor through "Myth".
Now 19 years have passed, Jackie Chan has teamed up with many well-known actors such as Zhang Yixing, Gu Li Nazha, Li Zhiting and Li Chen to jointly launch the sequel to "Myth", "Legend". Originally, this sequel could continue the "myth" of the previous film, but I never thought that it would directly ruin the way forward for the series of films.
was released for more than thirty days, and the total box office was less than 80 million yuan, and the investment in the film has exceeded 300 million yuan. It can be seen that the loss amount of "Legend" is very high. This is undoubtedly the most failed movie of superstar Jackie Chan.
is such a movie with a total box office of less than 80 million yuan, causing huge losses to the film studio, but it can actually win one championship and three runner-up titles.
According to domestic movie platforms, the movie "Legend" has achieved a total of 2 milestones.
Among them are the mainland box office champion of adventure films in July this year, the runner-up in the mainland box office of domestic adventure films this year, the runner-up in the mainland box office of fantasy films in July this year, and the runner-up of domestic adventure films in the number of moviegoers this year.
"Legend" is a multi-theme film that combines adventure, fantasy, action and drama. There are five adventure films released in July this year. In addition to this "Legend", the most famous one is Hollywood's "Tornado ", but the total box office of this film in the mainland is only more than 20 million yuan.
It seems that "Legend" was able to win the box office championship of adventure films in July this year, not because of its strength, but because other adventure films have low visibility and are not very popular.
Moreover, the title of the adventure film box office champion in July is not very valuable. It can also be said that it has no gold content at all. This might just be a consolation prize.
