China Box Office: ‘Twilight of the Warriors’ Tops Quiet Pre-Holiday Weekend


Ahead of the May Day holiday, the mainland China box office went quiet, allowing ‘Twilight of the Warriors’ to grab an early lead.

“ Twilight of the Warriors: Walled In,” a Hong Kong-produced action thriller, took the top spot at the mainland Chinabox office over the latest weekend. Directed by the prolific Soi Cheang, “Twilight” stars the veteran martial arts star Sammo Hung and actor-producer Louis Koo in a tale of a youngster who stumbles his way into Kowloon’s notorious Walled City and discovers a new kind of order within its seemingly criminal chaos. China remains the biggest box office territory in the world so far this year with a running total of $2.62 billion.
