This is Golden Week in Mainland China, the whole week off celebrating National Day on October 1 and a great time to release movies second only to the lunar new year holiday break. All eyes are on the box office and the historical and patriotic war film The Volunteers: The Battle of Life and Death came in first to no surprise. But the fun movie was supposed to be Bureau 749 a monsters and superpowers sci-fi big budget flick 8 years in the making with teen heartthrob Wang Jun Kai in the lead. Just being entertaining is enough and despite the movie coming in 2nd place in box office receipts the reviews ARE SO SO BAD. Like, wow is it bad and this from C-netizens who said their expectations were low already and just wanted something to pass the time and this turkey couldn’t even deliver. Douban ratings are at 4.7 and Weibo reviews are eviscerating it to the degree happening to Joker 2 in the international box office haha.
