"A film that perfectly combines art and business" as its own media "California Times" naturally has no scruples. In this film review, it can be said that "Jurassic" is the best movie in decades. For commercial films, even newcomers who sell copies are regarded as a new generation of Spielbold, thinking that he will become a top Hollywood director just like Spielbold after he finished filming Jaws and soared into the sky.

In addition, other media also expressed their views on this commercial blockbuster that they were not optimistic about beforehand:

Greatest monster movie since Jaws. -- "San Francisco Chronicle"

The screenplay and performances really aren't Oscar material, but that's okay, the real stars of the film are those dinosaurs created by ILM - a marvel of modern filmmaking. —Empire Magazine

In order for dinosaurs to rule the earth again, those monsters need sovereignty and intimidation. Selling copies, the new director handled it very well, which is amazing. ——Time Magazine

A total of more than 65 media outlets expressed their views on this movie, most of them gave positive reviews, a few gave neutral reviews, and only one or two gave negative reviews because they thought they were not artistic. The media's average score reached [-] points, which is considered a high score among commercial films.

However, compared to "Jurassic Park" media reviews are quite satisfactory, "Sleepless in Seattle" can be said to have been well received by various film critics. A total of 68 media have given a super high average score of 78 points.

As a romantic comedy movie, Meg Ryan's famous work "When Harry Met Sally" and Julia Roberts' famous work "Pretty Woman" have been well received in recent years.

The whole movie of "Sleepless in Seattle" has a touch of sadness throughout, especially the passage where Lao Tang talks about his miss for his wife in the movie, which is a classic and makes people cry.

But the movie is not just about a middle-aged man who lost his wife, beyond the sad story line.The other is the main line of romantic love. Although it is a little far away from reality, it dilutes the sadness of the whole movie. Among them, the meeting in the Empire State Building pays tribute to the classics, and at the same time makes it its own classic.

I have to say that it is not a good thing for "Jurassic Park" to face such a word-of-mouth masterpiece.

On Friday, "Seattle" won a box office of 420 million in the case of only 580 theaters, which is not bad.In the following two days, word of mouth spread over the weekend. On Saturday, it won 520 million. Although it fell slightly on Sunday, it still scored 700 million. Finally, it scored nearly [-] million in the box office in the first week.

As a romantic comedy movie, the box office and word-of-mouth are simply bursting. According to the calculation of good movies, the movie "Seattle" has reached at least 8000 million box office. If the trend is a little better, it will not be in the top ten box office list at the end of 1993. impossible.

However, although this result is extremely impressive, it is bound to be eclipsed in front of another Big Mac.

After "Jurassic Park" won 280 million box office in advance, it ushered in a real bumper box office in three days on the weekend. On Friday, carrying the pressure of "Seattle", not only was it not affected in any way, but there was no pressure It is astonishing to win a box office of 400 million.Afterwards, it continued to make great strides on Saturday, with a box office increase of 20.00%, and a terrifying score of nearly 700 million on that day.And on Sunday, there was only a slight drop, and it got 500 million box office.In the end, "Jurassic Park" cut 800 million in the first week, which is the best in Hollywood.

It can be said that with the explosive box office of "Jurassic Park" in the first week, and its reputation far higher than that of ordinary commercial blockbusters, it is not possible, but almost inevitable, that the final box office will exceed 1993 million.According to the currently known films to be released and above, there is basically no existence that can break through [-] million US dollars. It can be said that "Jurassic Park" has almost booked the champion of the North American box office list in [-].

Subsequent results also confirmed this point. On Monday of the second week, "Jurassic Park" only fell by 30.00%, and won a single-day score of 900 million, and this score was even better than many movies at the weekend box office. Since then, there is no doubt that "Jurassic Park" has exceeded [-] million.

By the end of the second week, the box office of "Jurassic Park" has exceeded 1000 million, and it has reached a crazy position of 700 million US dollars. In the weekend of the second week, it even scored a crazy score of 20.00 million. Compared with the first week's drop of only 90%, this result is unbelievably good, and some media even began to shout that "Jurassic Park" will become the first movie in the [-]s to break through [-] million US dollars at the North American box office, completing the kid The idea of ​​being in charge of hitting [-] million US dollars.

Prior to this, only the American sentimental movie "Star Wars" and Spielbold's movie "ET" were considered to have truly broken through the US$1982 million mark in North America, and "ET" was a movie in 1977, and Star Wars was in [-]. Movies, it can be said that in the past ten years, no movie has broken the box office of [-] million. If "Jurassic Park" reaches this mark, it will become the number one movie in North America in the past ten years.

On the weekend of the third week, "Jurassic" won three consecutive championships. The weekend box office exceeded 5000 million, overwhelming all new films, and the decline continued to be controlled within 700%. At present, the total box office has won more than 20.00 million "Seattle" , with a drop of 7000 million, a [-]% seven, continued to dominate, and at the same time raised its total box office to [-] million. If there is no accident, "Jurassic Park" will break through after the next weekend [-] million box office mark.

It can be said that in June, after entering July, all the media are cheering, and another movie that breaks through the [-] million US dollar mark is about to usher in. If it was just an expectation, it is very important for "Jurassic" to achieve this achievement now. "It is no longer a problem.

The only doubt is whether Liang Tang will bring his new movie "Sugar-coated Trap" to the top of "Jurassic", which has been unabated for three weeks. After all, it still has a strong appeal.

On the first weekend of July, "Sugar-coated Trap" beat "Jurassic", which fell by more than 500% for the first time, with a box office of [-] million, and won the championship in its first weekend.

In fact, the quality of the movie "Sugar-coated Trap" is relatively average. Compared with "Seattle" which won a lot of praise and "Jurassic" which is almost at its peak commercially, the plot of the whole movie is slow and the clues are too long. Tang's acting skills really couldn't hold up, and in the end it only became his solo show. It can only be said that Liang Tang once again proved that when a person's appearance reaches his level, appearance is the box office.

In the following two weeks, "Jurassic" and "Sugar Coating" fell into a fight. On the weekend of the second week, "Sugar Coating" continued to win the championship with an advantage of 200 million. The advantage of less than 100 million won the box office of 500 million, narrowly beating "Jurassic Park".

However, the battle did not end there. In the seventh week of the release of "Jurassic", which was also the fourth week of the release of "Sugar Coated", it finally stubbornly made the weekend box office higher than that of "Sugar Coated" with a drop of about 50%. "[-] U.S. dollars, forming a go-ahead, and also pulled its own box office to [-] million.

During the several weeks of fighting between "Sugar Coated" and "Jurassic", Sony Columbia, which was severely suppressed for several weeks and could not stand up, brought its new movie "Fire Line Sniper" into the box office battle between the two parties.

Because "Jurassic" is so popular, the box office is rising steadily, shaking the entire Hollywood, so that the word-of-mouth movie "Seattle" has to struggle in its shadow. Although the box office performance is beyond their expectations, but thinking that if Without "Jurassic", the entire June will belong to Sony Columbia, and I feel extremely upset.

So, they brought "Fireline Sniper" to meet the enemy again, and tried their best to regain the glory that belonged to Sony Columbia. However, unfortunately, "Fireline Sniper" not only failed to match Liangtang's prosperous beauty, but even had already been released to the fifth stage. Zhou's "Jurassic Park" can't compare, and finally only won the embarrassing third place in the first weekend.

How could Nobuyuki Idei bear this breath, so he sprinkled a lot of publicity regardless of the cost. Fortunately, the quality of "Fire Line Sniper" is good, and it can be regarded as salvageable. In the second week, it was finally slightly better than "Sugar Coated". Compared with the publicity fees that were thrown out, these box office improvements are simply not worth mentioning, but for Nobuyuki Idei, even if he spent a few million more, he was able to overwhelm the "Jurassic" that made him lose face countless times. "Ji", it is worth it.

It’s just that he can’t be proud for long. In the third week, with the release of new films one after another, "Fire Sniper" reluctantly dropped 30.00% and returned to the third place again. The only consolation is that "Sugar Coated " and "Jurassic."

It's just that this week "Jurassic" is already the seventh week, and "The Wire", which has only been released for three weeks, is only less than one million higher than "Jurassic". Judging from the decline rate of their two films, this Zhou is bound to be the last time "Wire of Fire" will stand on the head of "Jurassic", and "Jurassic" will once again move towards the $[-] million mark after getting rid of the entanglement of Sony Columbia.

Relying on the steady trend, "Jurassic" finally crossed this threshold in mid-August under the expectations of many people. Although the weekly box office after that was only a few million, there is not much room for progress. It can only rely on long-term screenings to slowly grind the box office.
