Disney has the wind in its sails at the end of the year since two of its latest achievements are a great success. This is also the case in France for Pixar's latest masterpiece, Coco, and for the most anticipated blockbuster for fans, Star Wars 8: The Last Jedi.
We expected a tidal wave despite the many disappointed episode 7 and it was. Return of the Jedi made the best start in France for the year 2017 with 2.1 million admissions in 5 days out of 1027 copies. A very significant figure since the film did not even benefit from a preview. Inevitably, it is also an international success since the film has accumulated more than 450 million dollars. The school holidays arriving tonight, we suspect that fans of the genre will rush to theaters.
The latest of the largest animation studios in the United States, Coco, is also a great success in France. Since its official release, the film has already achieved more than two million admissions. The reason for such success? A festive universe sublimated by exceptional colors and music that sublimate an unknown world.
The film is also a critical success since it received the Label Plebiscite du Public with a spectator rating of 9.5/10! This is the highest rating for a Pixar animated film since the creation of the Echo du Public in 1997.
