China Box Office: ‘The Last Frenzy’ Returns to Top Spot as Theatrical Momentum Slows, ‘The Fall Guy’ Flops


‘The Last Frenzy’ returns to the top spot as China's box office hits the dead spot between seasons..

“The Last Frenzy,” a comedy film about a dying man’s last hurrah, returned to the top spot in mainland Chinese cinemas in its third weekend of release. The broader picture, however, shows that there was little difference in performance among the top four titles and a lowish nation-wide aggregate of just $37.1 million. The iQiyi-backed revenge-action film is a Chinese adaptation of a crime novel by Japanese author Higashino Keigo about a father on a revenge mission after discovering that his school-age daughter has been raped and murdered.
