The race for theatrical movies on the occasion of April 30th lacks blockbusters

--

“Face Off 7” (Ly Hai) achieved a ticket booking record, and experts said it had many advantages in theaters because there were no holiday blockbusters.

The domestic market recorded nearly 10 Vietnamese and international works showing this year’s holiday. Outside Flip 7: One wishmany action, horror, and animation movies are featured, diversifying genres for the audience.

However, a representative of Box Office Vietnam – an independent box office monitoring unit – commented that Ly Hai’s work has no competitors in the revenue race. Popular movies like Kong x Godzilla, Exhuma: Unearthing ghosts has reduced the “heat”. Three days before the premiere, Ly Hai’s work created a fever on online ticket sales sites. According to statistics from CGV cinema complex, on April 25, Turn over 7 reached 22,000 tickets, becoming one of the Vietnamese films with the highest number of pre-ordered tickets.
