It is said that the large-scale Taiwanese movie " Get Rid of Three Evils in One Week " starring Ethan Ethan was a box office "dark horse" at the beginning of this year. In fact, its box office performance was indeed very good, but looking at it now This film really can't be called a "dark horse".

"The Three Evils" was first released in Taiwan, China, in October last year. Almost half a year later, the film officially landed in mainland China theaters in early March this year. Just two days before its release, the daily box office performance of "Zhou Chu Abates Three Evils" failed to beat " no. 20 " during the Spring Festival period, and failed to win the daily box office championship in mainland China. However, starting from the third day, the film began its journey to be the daily box office champion for more than 20 days. It is precisely for this reason that its total box office can easily exceed 600 million yuan, and it can be called a box office "dark horse" by domestic audiences.

If it hadn't been for the emergence of a Hollywood monster blockbuster in the later period, "The Three Evils" might have continued to be the daily box office champion, and its total box office performance might have reached another level.

On March 29 this year, the Hollywood monster blockbuster " Godzilla vs. Kong 2" produced by Legendary Pictures was officially released in the Chinese mainland market. On the first day, the film earned a box office of over 90 million yuan, winning the day's box office championship with an absolute advantage. On the second day, the daily box office of this Hollywood blockbuster rose to 128 million yuan, becoming the first movie after this year's Spring Festival to achieve a daily box office of over 100 million yuan.

"Godzilla vs. Kong 2" not only knocked out "The Three Evils" from the daily box office championship at the time, its daily box office performance was far better than "The Three Evils".

Because of this, "Godzilla vs. Kong 2" surpassed "The Three Evils" in terms of total box office in just ten days. In this way, "Zhou Chu Removes Three Evils" has become the second highest box office movie in the Chinese mainland market in 2024 after the Spring Festival.

originally thought that "Zhou Chu Eliminates Three Evils" could lead the second place for a long time, but he never thought that not long ago, it had been surpassed again and the ranking dropped to third place.

During this year's Qingming Festival, the animated film "What kind of life do you want to live " directed by director Hayao Miyazaki successfully won the box office championship with a box office of 390 million yuan.

In front of this Japanese animated film, even the Hollywood big-budget movie "Godzilla vs. Kong 2" has to stand aside and has lost its position as the Japanese box office champion in mainland China. In addition, this film also won the Qingming Festival schedule and the daily box office championship, and quickly surpassed "The Three Evils" in terms of total box office.

According to statistics, the cumulative box office of "What Kind of Life Do You Want to Live" has reached 674 million yuan, while the total box office of "Zhou Chu Eliminates Three Evils" is 660 million yuan.

"Godzilla vs. Kong 2" and "What Kind of Life Do You Want to Live" are both purely imported films, and in fact "The Three Evils" can also be considered an imported film. After the Spring Festival in China, each of them created very impressive box office results and ranked among the top three in the box office list.

It seems that the "spring" of imported films in the Chinese mainland market has finally arrived.
