The most expensive Chinese film of all time dramatically dropped at the box office. According to official media converted nearly 96 million euros of expensive production "Asura" was removed from cinemas on Sunday. After starting on Friday, she had just touched about six million euros, so the Chinese ticket traded Maoyan on Tuesday.
The filmmakers announced Sunday that the film would not be broadcast from 22 hours. "We apologize to anyone who wanted to see it and have no chance," said production company Alibaba Pictures. The fantastic epic with many special effects should be the first part of a trilogy. The film is based on Tibetan Buddhist mythology and is part of the government's efforts to promote works with elements of traditional Chinese culture.
The state media had been promoting the film in advance. The China Daily newspaper reported that Asura was "the best blockbuster" of the summer. Criticism of China's most influential evaluation site, "Douban," however, was devastating. "It's just a sumptuous pile of feces!", Wrote a user.
China's burgeoning film scene is now about sabotage, claiming that influential user sites and online ticket portals have been manipulated with false tears. There was no reason for the cinema to stop on the part of those in charge. According to media reports, the last word on "Asura" is not spoken yet. According to "Hollywood Reporter", one of the leading producers of the Chinese news agency Sina said that changes should be made to the film to reissue it. With an estimated loss of about 90 million euros, Asura is the fifth most expensive flop in the history of cinema according to the Mojo Box Office website. The worst loser, according to Mojo, is the American animated film Sinbad – The Lord of the Seven Seas. AFP / Tsp
