Hong Kong movies that once made the audience feel enthusiastic after watching them, Hong Kong movies that have always been able to become classics and become popular with many superstars, and Hong Kong movies that once made Hong Kong the Hollywood of the East, have now become supporting roles in the market.

在最近三年的時間里，內地票房最高的香港電影，就是於2024年五一檔上映的《九龍城寨之圍城》，可該片的內地累計票房卻還不到7億人民幣。對比《流浪地球2》的40億、《熱辣滾燙》的34億、《哪吒2》的152億，就好像那不入流的“小小弼馬溫”一樣，實力很強成就卻很小。然而，它卻是港片復興的最大希望。

Hong Kong films fell into the lowest period in 2025 years

現在的2025年已經過去了快有四個月的時間，可暫列中國內地年度票房冠軍的香港電影，竟然還是重映的老片《花樣年華》，而該片的內地總票房也就只有6000多萬人民幣。

像《惡行之外》《武替道》《陽光照耀青春裡》等非常純正的香港電影，各自的內地票房更是都沒有達到1500萬人民幣。由梁朝偉和段奕巨集兩大實力派影帝聯合主演，拍攝手法以及題材內容都十分趨近於港片的《獵狐行動》，上映了半個月票房也就只有5400萬人民幣。

Hong Kong movies finally couldn't sit still and began to fight back

The successive box office failures have made the current Hong Kong films completely enter a low period. But no one is willing to fall, and no one wants to sit in the pit all the time.

After many failures, today's Hong Kong films have finally made a major decision, that is, to re-screen "The Siege of the Kowloon Walled City", the box office champion of Hong Kong films in the past three years.

重映時間，就是今年的5月2日五一檔。

and Andy Lau's new film will be released at the same time, and they will join forces to start the revival of Hong Kong films

May Day is the first important schedule in our Chinese mainland market after the Spring Festival, and "The Siege of Kowloon Walled City" chose to be re-screened in this period, which can be regarded as full of confidence in itself.

In addition, the reason why it is scheduled to be re-released on May 1st may also be because it wants to fight side by side with Andy Lau's new film "Gold Hunting Game" and win glory for Hong Kong films together.

《獵金遊戲》是由香港著名導演邱禮濤執導，劉德華領銜主演。有消息稱，該片的總成本高達4.5億人民幣，至少要收穫近14億人民幣的票房成績才能夠實現收支平衡。

In the film history of Chinese mainland, the box office champion of Hong Kong movies is Donnie Yen's "Angry Case", which has a mainland box office of 290 million yuan.

A wide road in a narrow gate

Hong Kong films don't have to be obsessed with reproducing the golden age, and the market segment has hidden opportunities. The extreme style of "Wisdom Teeth" proves that there is still room for cult films, and the Hong Kong-style sci-fi attempted by "Tomorrow's War" is worth deepening. When platforms like Disney+ crave Asian content, "Walled City" dramas may be easier to break through than movies. As Cheng Po-sui, the producer of "Kowloon Walled City", said: "What we want to do is not to make a nostalgic museum, but to let the fireworks in the market grow new limbs of cyborgs." "

"Kowloon Walled City", which will be re-screened on May Day, is like a mirror: it reflects the glory of the past and the possibility of the future. When Andy Lau continues to carry the crown in "Gold Hunting Game", the real hope may be hidden in those "new ones" who have not yet become famous. After all, there are talented people in the rivers and lakes, and the revival of Hong Kong films cannot only rely on the old heroes to bomb the gas station again, but also to cultivate more newcomers.
