August 31st, the last day of this summer vacation.

There are actually 3 movies released in the mainland film market, and the high emotional intelligence is called the finale. It is unpleasant to say that it is the last train. With 6 new movies on August 30, the last weekend of the summer season does not look good.

"Alien" has won the championship for 15 consecutive days, and the final box office is expected to reach 800 million.

As of 12:00 on August 31, the single-day box office championship in the mainland is still firmly held by " Alien: Death Ship ". The single-day box office of

movie exceeded 5.11 million. Due to the impact of new films, the proportion of scheduled films dropped to 18.8%, but the attendance rate is still excellent. It has won the daily crown for 15 days after 16 days of release. The number of consecutive crowns is second only to Shen Teng's " ", it can be seen that the second half of the summer season is completely supported by "Alien: Death Ship", and the cumulative box office of the movie also exceeded 621 million.

has already become Hollywood’s box office champion in the mainland’s summer season.

is also second only to " Godzilla vs. Kong 2" in the annual rankings, becoming Hollywood's annual box office runner-up in the mainland.

Unfortunately, the summer season this year is really deserted, and the audience for R-rated movies is limited. After the summer season, "Alien" should be able to maintain its box office advantage until the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the final box office is expected to hit the 800 million mark.

only had 1.1 million on its first day. Stephen Chow made his final appearance in the summer season. I lamented: Selling feelings can’t save Hong Kong movies!

Under the strong influence of "Alien: Death Ship", the three new films released on August 31 were defeated.

The Chinese-American female film "The Whisperer", as of 12:00 on August 31st, had a box office of only 8,742 yuan on its first day.

The movie tells the story of the plight of two contemporary Chinese women, their self-breakthrough, independence and growth in society and tradition.

, a so-called feminist-themed movie, has also received support from American film companies. The most interesting thing is that the movie was released in North America in 2022, but no one paid for it, and then it was released in mainland China. In the end, the box office exceeded 1 million. Not bad.

"Where to Grow" box office on the first day was only 15,000. The

movie stars Shang Yuxian, Aaliya, Zhao Yanguozhang and other well-known actors. Shang Yuxian is one of the heroines in the " Chinatown Detective " series. Zhao Yanguozhang also has classic works such as " cannot escape " Blessings, but "Where to Grow" was of mediocre quality and failed miserably at the box office!

In fact, the real finale is undoubtedly Stephen Chow's " God of Cookery ".

Although this comedy was born 28 years ago, the movie has never been released in the mainland, so "The God of Cookery" is truly the mainland premiere. The funniest thing is that the audience has watched "The God of Cookery" countless times, but This time, 3 minutes were deleted from the mainland release! The Hong Kong version is 95 minutes, while the Mainland version is 92 minutes. There is a high probability that some large-scale lines are missing.

theaters actually have expectations for "God of Cookery".

accounted for 4.7% of the films scheduled on the first day, which is the highest among new films this week. However, as of 12 o'clock on August 31, the film's first-day box office was only 1.1 million.

The attendance rate is not high, and the final box office is predicted to be around 14 million.

Of course, "The God of Cookery" cannot be compared with the first-ever blockbuster. After all, the movie has been 28 years old, and the real target of theaters is the re-release of classic old movies. With the support of the audience's feelings, they can often achieve good box office results, such as The re-release of "Avatar" in the mainland earned 370 million box office. Hayao Miyazaki's "Castle in the Sky" was released in the mainland after 37 years, and the box office exceeded 135 million, becoming the largest box office for movies.

"The God of Cookery" is undoubtedly one of Stephen Chow's most classic works.

Douban score is as high as 8.2 points. In 1996, the box office in Hong Kong exceeded 40.86 million, and it was the runner-up in Hong Kong that year.

No matter how you look at it, "God of Cookery" has a chance of copying the box office trend of "Castle in the Sky", but the reality is cruel. This year's summer Hong Kong movies suffered a disastrous failure, Jackie Chan " legend ", Nicholas Tse "" "Customs Front " and so on, the audience found that Hong Kong movies will only sell sentiments and make things worse. The release of "God of Cookery" only deepened this impression.

In recent years, we can see that the older generation of Hong Kong film superstars are a bit lethargic.

Stephen Chow's next short dramas such as "Football" and "Westward Journey" are all films that rest on their laurels. Jackie Chan's "New Police Story 2", "Zodiac 2", "Rush Hour 4", etc. are all copies of his own classics, but they sell Feelings cannot save Hong Kong films.

"Legend", which cost 350 million, failed miserably at the box office, and the setback of the classic "God of Cookery" is proof!
