The spider is entangled in a sticky web

For the second weekend in a row, the short film "Farewell" was on the first line of the domestic box office. From August 27 to August 30, according to the EAIS, he earned 118 million rubles. The project became a leader with the unofficial premiere in Russia of the Marvel movie "Spider-Man: A New Day". Seven more short films were included in the top 12, with which this and other foreign novelties are shown as part of the pre-screening service. In total, they brought in almost 350 million rubles over the weekend.

At the global box office, the new "Spider-Man" earned more than $2.3 billion and became the third highest-grossing film in history. Ahead are Avatar and Avengers: Endgame.

The action of the blockbuster takes place four years after the events of "No Way Home." Dr. Strange's spell erased the very fact of Peter Parker's existence from the memory of others. He becomes a stranger even to his loved ones, including M.J., with whom the hero had a romantic relationship. During the day, Parker still patrols New York and confronts criminals, and in his spare time he watches friends on social networks. The daily routine is disrupted by the appearance of a telepath capable of subjugating someone else's will and turning people into weapons.

The Marvel blockbuster became the leader of the domestic distribution

Cinema attendance in Russia decreased from 2.2 million viewers to 1.6 million over the weekend.

— This is a traditional rollback before September 1st. Focus on studying, completing vacations, and preparing for the high season. In just one or two weekends, we expect a surge in audience activity," Olga Zinyakova, general director of the KARO cinema chain, predicts in an interview with Izvestia.

Luntik in search of Dad

The best novelty of the past week was the cartoon "Luntik. The other side of the moon." On its debut weekend, the tape earned 93 million rubles and took the second place in the top.

— As expected, Luntik took a place in the top leaders. This animated character is very much loved by children, and a comfortable rating of 0+ allows families with the youngest viewers to go to the cinema. The novelty started almost on a par with the previous full-length film about the universe, and if the sundress allows, the box office promises to multiply. But the competitors are strong "Kolobok" and "Smeshariki", and soon the family "How Ivan got into a fairy tale" by Alexey Nuzhny will be released. Therefore, it will be very difficult for Luntik to increase its cash register," Olga Zinyakova believes.

After meeting his mother in Homecoming, Luntik begins to worry about his father's fate. After learning that he lives on the far side of the moon, the hero, along with Kuzya, Vupsen and Pupsen, set off on a long journey. A new cartoon is being released to mark the 20th anniversary of the franchise.

The tale of Anton Maslov "The Last hero. Kolobok dropped from the second line of the box office to the third. She has another 77 million rubles on her account. The total fees are approaching a billion. Now they amount to about 900 million rubles.

In the story, Kolobok escapes from the evil enchantress in order not to become a victim of her magical rite, and joins a gang of robbers. The criminal life soon gets bored, and he decides to take on a human form. However, he failed to transform into a brave warrior: he got the body of the shy baker Tikhon. In the spirit of Venom, the heroes will have to find a common language to face the dangers of the dense forest.

The top 5 box office is rounded out by another novelty - the action—packed action movie "Mutiny" starring Jason Statham. He credited 63 million rubles to his account. On the tenth line is the animated feature film "Smeshariki through the Universes". He earned another 23 million rubles.
