Although it is ordered by admission (see: source), but if you change that order based on box office result (not adjusted to the inflation): 1. Bohemian Rhapsody $2,4million 2. Avatar $2,1m 3. Avengers: Endgame $1.9m 4. The Minions $1,8m =5. Všetko alebo nič [All or Nothing] (local) $1,7m =5. Čiara [The Line] (local) $1,7m 7. Bathory (local) $1,6m 8. Hotel Transylvania 3 1,5m =8. A Star Is Born $1,5m 10. Despicable Me 3 $1,4m =10. Finding Dory $1,4m =10. Únos [Kidnapping] (local) $1,4m 13. Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs $1,1m 14. Titanic $960 thousand 15. Ice Age: The Meltdown $827 thous. 16. Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone $795 thous. 17. Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets $715 thous. No boxoffice result in USD for Trhlina [The Rift] (local) movie this year but it is a Top 10 movie definitely. Source: https://www.interez.sk/mnohe-z-nich-vas-prekvapia-toto-je-20-najviac-navstevovanych-filmov-na-slovensku-od-roku-1993/ I've added the latest local hit Trhlina. It is not the final number, but It was released in Slovakia quite a while, so I don't think it will climb more position on this list. UPDATE: I also added the Avengers: Endgame numbers as well

Especially last year (in 2018): Top 4 movies were ALL LOCAL MOVIES (based on admissions) over there. In the year of Avenger: Infinity War/Mamma mia/Bohemian Rapsody/Jurassic World 2. Good for them!

Hi! Could you recommend other Russian movie sites other than kinopoisk.ru ? Which is the best? (for a while the latest Three Heroes animation had the highest admission number with 30m+ moviegoers in their database I see it was corrected since then.)

Man, it has taken quite a while to put that together! Big thanks for the link!

To the first post (International Resources) : Hungary admission/gross link only covers 2013.01.01-2015.09.06 interval. Since then the Hungarian Film Fund doesn't colllect the boxoffice numbers. BUT There is an association which covers this information (Filmforgalmazók Egyesülete - Association of Film Distributors) in excel tables. Link: http://filmforgalmazok.hu/ Very simple website (A pop-up window will be appeared, which reminded you: if you using data, also put the main link on that webpage - you can easily close that) Menus: About the Association / Weekly result / Weekend Result / Annual estimated top list / Premier Dates / Cumulative datas, group by movies I know it is not a big market, but at least this is an up-to-date link.

Thx for the answer. I just hope that's because of the bad marketing, and not because of the movie (fingers crossed). But according to Imdb, they re-cut the whole movie after the festival screening in Venice. That's not a good sign...

When will be the premiere of the "Manhunt" movie (the latest John Woo project)? I am really looking forward to it!

It's like a 'hit and miss' thing, yet I didn't mind that I spent 2 hours from my life watching that. Basic story is great: In the near future to avoid the overpopulation of the Earth, every sibilings must be hibernated by a special ministry according to the state law. But one day seven baby girl were born by the same mother who died during labour. Their fatheir (William Defoe) secretly raises them and named the girls after the days. They also got only 1 personal ID and use it according to their names (Sunday go out on Sundays, Monday on Mondays and so on). 30 years later, one day Monday never arrived at home at a Monday night. So the rest of the sisters try to find out what happened to her. The only weak point in the screenplay, when we (i mean the audience) find out too early in the movie who or what is behind the missing. Otherwise good action scenes, and Noomi Rapace was a good casting choice also. 6,5/10

It is a nice afternoon comedy with some R-rated elements. Jump Street remake was better. 4/10

One of the best movie I've seen lately. I didn't care about the marketing hype. The hype for me was that I saw earlier from the same director the Scott Pilgrim movie. OMG. That was the BEST graphic novel adaptation of all time (personal opinion, of course). So I jumped on the Edgar Wright-rollercoster again, and there was no disappointment. If Scott Pilgrim is 10/10, Baby Driver is 8,5/10

I am not American, yet this movie (which set place in US in pre-, during, and after WWII) keep engaged me during the whole movie. It is a slow-paced movie. If you like fast-paced artmovies, then it is not your movie. Minimalist cinematography, but it still shows everything. It would be a festival winning movie in Cannes. I read that it has been already shown in Sundace. And no prize I give 8 points out of 10.

So that means: nearly 0% chance It is shame because even the plot of movie was quite simple, it had a huge potential. I hoped that Asian (Chinese especially) box office result will be better and helping for a sequel (like Warcaft)... but sadly wasn't big success there either. Until then: back to the Valerian comics.
