Compared to the Doraemon brand, with an audience, Maika is worse off. But the important thing affecting the current movie theater’s revenue is that the audience tightens spending, especially spending on entertainment at a time when prices are high and inflation affects people’s lives.“.

He stated the fact that the audience currently going to theaters only reached about 70% compared to the pre-epidemic period (in 2019).

“Not only that, the audience also chooses movies to buy tickets. They hesitated, choosing one movie instead of watching many movies as before. Therefore, if a movie is good, has effects, that movie has good sales. In contrast, the rest of the movies sold out.

For example, when Doctor Strange came out, the audience mostly chose this movie. The other movie theaters were mostly deserted. It is true that income and difficulties after the pandemic have affected cinemas“, said Mr. Duong.

He also affirmed that Vietnamese films are always supported by cinema clusters in terms of showings and showtimes at the time of their premiere. Specifically, movies with a limited number of guests are still assigned prime hour slots.

Mr. Duong added: “When a movie loses, there are always many reasons. As for cinemas, I think they can support Vietnamese movies. In my opinion, a movie does not have good sales because it has not really reached the majority of the audience. Audiences are now fastidious, they only choose movies that suit their tastes and preferences“.
