儘管評價平平，《我的世界》電影仍在票房上大獲成功

A Minecraft Movie has recently been released and it has made a big splash at the box office, earning an impressive $300 million globally during its opening weekend. This film is based on the immensely popular video game, Minecraft, which has captured the hearts of millions around the world. Although the movie faced several delays before finally hitting theaters on Friday, it has managed to attract a large audience. The film features a star-studded cast, including well-known actors like Jason Momoa, Jack Black, and Jennifer Coolidge. The earnings from the movie have significantly surpassed its production budget of $150 million, indicating a strong financial performance. According to EntTelligence, a company that tracks box office performance, about half of the film's earnings came from North America, showcasing its popularity in the region. Interestingly, the box office success comes despite the film receiving mixed reviews from critics. For instance, The Telegraph mentioned that the charm of the original video game was 'nowhere to be found,' while The Guardian described the film as having 'a cobbled-together feel. ' However, these reviews did not deter families from flocking to theaters to watch the movie. Steve Buck, the chief strategy officer at EntTelligence, noted that the film exceeded all industry expectations. He pointed out that the movie resonated with a wide range of audiences, with approximately 25% of viewers being under the age of 13 and more than half of the audience being male. Buck remarked, 'When dads like a family film, that's a good thing. ' He also highlighted that this film achieved the largest domestic opening of 2025 and marked the biggest opening for Warner Bros since 2023. Minecraft is recognized as one of the best-selling video games globally, with over 300 million copies sold. The movie's plot revolves around four misfit characters who are unexpectedly transported through a mysterious portal into the Overworld, the starting point for all players in Minecraft. The history of video game adaptations into films has been mixed, with many failing to capture the essence of the games. However, there have been notable successes, such as Sonic and The Super Mario Bros Movie, which have performed exceptionally well at the box office. In promotional materials released before the film's debut, Jack Black acknowledged the immense pressure to meet the expectations of fans who have cherished the game for years. He stated, 'This game has been loved by millions and millions all over the world for years now, and I think this movie is a big deal for a lot of people, because now it's generational. ' This sentiment reflects the significance of the film not only as an entertainment piece but also as a cultural milestone for fans of the Minecraft franchise.
