On the big screen of the Spring Festival, not only movies are staged, but also box office battles. Just when everyone thought that Jia Ling's laughter could sit firmly as the box office champion, Zhang Yimou quietly took his new work "Article 20" to fight a bloody road. This movie, which was originally scheduled for midnight screening, has now become a favorite of the audience queuing up to watch it at night. On Valentine's Day, the box office revenue of "Article 20" was like a stimulant, and it became a strong contender for Jia Ling's movie.
Although the beginning of Article 20 was slow, its temperament of potential stocks began to gradually reveal itself as the festival progressed. Although Jia Ling's "Hot and Hot" is full of enthusiasm, in the tide of the Spring Festival, this new work directed by Zhang Yimou is like a dark horse, and under the unpromising film schedule, it has achieved a counterattack at the box office. Many netizens joked that if Director Zhang's movie has a few more screens, then Jia Ling's throne as the box office queen may have to be relinquished.
Rewind last year's Spring Festival file, remember Zhang Yimou's "Man Jianghong"? That's a box office champion with a lot of word-of-mouth. This year's "Article 20", at first glance, seems to be less firing than last year, but who would have thought that this movie would quietly climb and use its strength to tell us: Don't worry, I'm on my way here.
Speaking of what kind of movie "Article 20" is, let me give you an outline. Imagine that director Zhang Yimou put aside those epic dramas with big scenes, changed the way, and made such a comedy. However, this is not the kind of comedy that makes you laugh and make your stomach ache, but the kind that brings tears in laughter and makes you ponder after laughing. Each character is not a paper man, but a living person with flesh and blood, tears and laughter.
Don't think that "Article 20" is just a movie that makes you laugh, it is actually a profound "legal enlightenment film". Through one case after another, the film quietly sowed the seeds of the legal concept of "justifiable defense" in the hearts of the audience. Director Zhang is like this, he can always explain profound things in an easy-to-understand way, so that you can walk out of the cinema and still think about the meaning of life.
Now, with the strong performance of "Article 20" in the Spring Festival file**, we can't help but look forward to: What will happen if we continue to maintain this momentum and take more films? Is Jia Ling starting to get nervous? Dear netizens, what do you think? Leave your insights below, and don't forget to follow, we will continue to track this Spring Festival box office war.
