What is a summer blockbuster and what is unstoppable?
Just look at the box office trend of " Catch a Baby " and you will know.
On the first day of screening, "Catch a Baby" had a single-day box office of 157 million, accounting for 50.7% of the box office on the first day of screening, which is about twice as much as " silently kills ". On the second day after
was released, the single-day box office exceeded 200 million, making it the first summer blockbuster to achieve a single-day box office of over 200 million.
At this point, the theater box office looks like a summer movie. On the third day of screening of
, the box office exceeded 100 million. On the first day of release of
, the box office exceeded 150 million again on working days. On the second day after
was released, the cumulative box office exceeded 700 million, and the box office momentum was a mess. If "Silent Kill" hadn't already had a box office of 950 million, the first summer blockbuster to break 1 billion in box office might have changed hands.
+5 days of screening, the box office of "Catch a Baby" exceeded 700 million. However, in these 5 days, "Silent Kill" only received more than 200 million box office. We can see everyone's love for comedies, and it once again proves how terrifying the box office appeal of the combination of Shen Teng and Ma Li is.
Although Xu Zheng's " Retrograde Life " and Wu Ershan's " Under the Stranger " have not yet been released, the strength of "Catch a Baby" has the potential to win the summer box office championship.
media is also very optimistic about the box office forecast of "Catch a Baby", predicting that it can sell more than 3.7 billion. What is the concept of the data
? We will know by looking at the summer box office in previous years.
The 2023 summer season is very strong. " All or Nothing " won 3.848 billion to become the summer box office champion, but " The Disappearance of Her " 3.523 billion, " Conferred Gods Part 1 " 2.634 billion, and "The Octagonal Cage" 2.207 billion, and the animated film "Chang'an 30,000 Miles" received 1.824 billion.
The 2022 summer season is average, a bit like this year. " Alone on the Moon " starring Shen Teng won 3.103 billion and won the summer box office championship.
In 2021, " Fury·Serious Case " starring Nicholas Tse and Donnie Yen had a box office of 1.329 billion.
Judging from the box office trend of this summer's season, it is true that it is not as good as the same period last year, but it should be better than that of 2022. If "Catch a Baby" can sell more than 3.7 billion, it is really possible to become the box office champion of this summer's season.
Of course, this summer’s summer season didn’t get off to a good start. The promised “Nezha 2” and “Fengshen 2” were also absent, which undoubtedly made many movie fans lose confidence in this summer season.
However, we do not rule out the success of subsequent movies. After all, word-of-mouth is hard to say. If it explodes, it will be a box office hit during non-summer seasons. If " I am not the god of medicine " really has the reputation of that year, then this year It is not impossible to recreate a 4 billion blockbuster movie in the summer.
It is worth mentioning that "Catch a Baby" is such a hit that it may not only become this summer's box office champion, but also help Shen Teng and Ma Li set a new box office record.
Especially Ma Li, with the box office hit of "Catch a Baby", the box office of her solo starring movie has officially exceeded 20 billion, and she is undoubtedly the number one actress. The second in the country is Zhou Dongyu, with a personal box office of 11.959 billion.
0 billion personal achievements can be said to be beyond the reach of Zhou Dongyu. And in terms of Ma Li's current box office appeal, no actor in China can match her. This advantage will probably continue for two to three years.Shen Teng’s position as the number one male filmmaker is becoming more and more stable. After surpassing Wu Jing’s 33.496 billion, Shen Teng has maintained the lead. Coupled with the 3.7 billion that may be sold at the box office of this summer’s “Catch a Baby”, Shen Teng Wu Jingdu is undoubtedly unable to catch up with Teng's box office title.
Although Wu Jing also has blockbuster films such as "The Wandering Earth 3" and "The Good Samaritan", it is still difficult for him to overtake Shen Teng at the box office. After all, comedies have too strong a box office. Unless "Wolf Warrior 3" is put on the agenda, otherwise Shen Teng's box office lead will further expand.
What is worthy of recognition is that the quality of "Catching Dolls" itself has the potential to become a hit and the fans will pay for it.
On Douban, "Catch a Baby" has a rating of 7.5, which is better than 90% of comedy films.The evaluation given by 120,000 people can be said to be fair enough.
In terms of plot, "Catch a Baby" understands Chinese education very well, and Ma Chenggang's no-hardship style of parenting has made many people sympathize. However, the disadvantages of this are also obvious, and the children have no self-esteem.
Using the cloak of comedy to talk about the pain points of traditional Chinese education is undoubtedly the brilliance of the script.
In addition, as a comedy movie, "Catch a Baby" has a compact plot and fast pace, especially with a lot of laughs. It is worthy of being the second collaboration between Shen, Teng and Ma Li. It is really a match made in heaven. Let's wait and see whether
can become the summer box office champion.
I recommend it to those who have not seen it. It was a joy to go to the theater during the summer season and it was very refreshing.
