凛冬已过，风起云涌。

继2020年春节贺岁档取消、暑期档哑火之后，“最豪华阵容”国庆档强势回归。当春节档“存货”《夺冠》、《姜子牙》、《急先锋》，与两部走心喜剧《我和我的家乡》、《一点就到家》狭路相逢，蛰伏了大半年的国内院线全线战火重燃。

根据电影发行放映协会发布的最新通知，自9月25日起影院最高上座率从此前的50%上调到了75%，为打开国庆档局面注入了强心针。

这一波神仙打架的几宗“最”，我们来一一盘点。

The first three quarters of 2020 were painful for the film industry. The box office usually peaks during the Chinese New Year and summer vacation, but not this year. However, things are getting better over the National Day holiday from October 1 to 8 as fierce competition is being witnessed among five top films in theaters: “Leap,” “Jiang Ziya: Legend of Deification,” “Vanguard,” “Coffee or Tea?” and “My People, My Homeland.”

Starting September 25, authorities lifted the visitor cap from 50 to 75 percent of the cinema capacity, which is surely to serve as a silver bullet for the film industry.

So, what can we expect during this National Day holiday?

最万众期待

预售票房夺冠，上映3天破9亿。

去年《哪吒之魔童降世》片尾彩蛋的的一句“姜子牙，你可知罪吗？”给观众种下了心锚，而对“国漫之光”、“封神宇宙”的期待值，加以春节撤档后的漫长等待，使得观众按捺不住地在国庆档伊始为《姜子牙》买账。

但上映三天后口碑两极分化，豆瓣评分跌至7.1——有人称赞成年人的动画不必处处讨喜，有人责难精美技术不能没有剧情支撑。

“一战封神”的口号和超越《哪吒》50亿票房的预期，不知算不算是flag立早了。在10月3日的全国单日票房中，《姜子牙》已被《我和我的家乡》反超，以2.2亿位居第二。

High hopes: “Jiang Ziya: Legend of Deification”

Bagging over 900 million yuan in three days, “Jiang Ziya,” a follow-up animated fantasy to last year’s “Ne Zha" that amassed 5 billion yuan, came out the winner in the early stages during this year’s golden week. However, with high anticipation, came some mixed reviews, which in turn affected its performance at the box office.

最全民记忆

9月25日，《夺冠》抢发上映。

女排姑娘们的故事被陈可辛导演搬上大银幕，135分钟里要浓缩几代人的血汗和国人40年的情感，导演自述这是他从影以来拍过最难的一部作品。

上映首日，“夺冠燃哭”的词条在微博热搜居高不下。但之后同样遭遇了口碑和票房的双重降温——片中三场酣畅淋漓的比赛与导演对时代、对集体的思考风格难以统一，使观影体验无法一气呵成。截至10月3日，《夺冠》的豆瓣评分为7.3，累计票房4.3亿。

Collective memory: “Leap”

The movie recounts the stories of the Chinese national women's volleyball team over the last 40 years, casting director Peter Chan’s personal reflection on the development of the team as well as the times, all in the span of 135 minutes. With a moderate performance, the film had grabbed 430 million yuan as of October 3.

最厚积薄发

天时地利，后来居上。

时隔整整一年，《我和我的祖国》的姊妹篇《我和我的家乡》在国庆当天准时上映，“喜剧国家队”组成五个故事单元，好比一席自助大餐。

双节同庆，家国同圆。在中秋团圆之际带上家人观赏关于脚下这篇土地的故事，一切顺理成章。

上映3天，《家乡》票房、评分、排片比纷纷反超《姜子牙》，累计票房逼近9亿。

Dark horse: “My People, My Homeland”

Composed of a buffet of five different short comedies, the movie hit the screens on October 1, which is also this year’s Mid-Autumn Festival – a day of joy and reunion. With the perfect theme and strong word of mouth working to its advantage, “My People, My Homeland” overtook “Jiang Ziya.”

最昙花一现

10月3日上映，4日撤档。

在大片云集的国庆档中，动画电影《木兰：横空出世》仅在上映一天后战略性撤退，片方宣布将于10月6日零点起撤档待映。首日票房600余万，豆瓣评分3.3。看来想搭上这一趟好莱坞真人版《花木兰》的顺风车，可谓机遇与风险并存。

Strategic retreat: “Kung Fu Mulan”

Having just came out to moviegoers on Saturday, the film announced it will remove itself from the race and cancel all screenings after next Monday until further notice. Looks like it’s not that easy to hitch a ride with Disney’s remake of “Mulan” after all.

久旱逢甘霖，且行且珍惜。

根据猫眼电影数据显示，国庆假期前三天共售出将近5000万张电影票，三日总票房超过20亿。虽然难以达到2019年国庆档超50亿的票房成绩，但今年国庆档的表现足以让挺过了至暗时刻的影视行业斗志重燃。

Having overcome its darkest hour, China’s film industry registered a total of 2 billion yuan at the box office during the first three days of the National Day holiday, with almost 50 million tickets sold, according to the Chinese ticket tracker Maoyan.
