The Chinese and Hollywood films fighting it out in June

Potential domestic films

Domestic films make up the majority of the market in June with 25 pictures – excluding the six on June 1.

Popular comedian Shen He, better known as Xiao Shenyang, will have his directorial debut The Way of the Bug out on June 15.

The film follows Shen Fu and Da Lei, two young men from northeastern China, who met a girl from Taiwan. Shen was told he has a grandfather in the island and was left behind a huge amount of heritage. But soon they found themselves in trouble.

A week later, two crime dramas will open on the same day – one is a comedy and the other is a thriller.

Lobster Cop follows four drug trafficking police who opened a lobster restaurant in order to cover up and secretly find the leads. Unexpectedly, the restaurant becomes a hit and a bigger conspiracy surfaces up.

Whilst The Leaker is more intense as a Hong Kong policeman and a Malaysian policeman team up to investigate a suicide case of the founder and CEO of Malaysia's AMANAH pharmaceutical company.

The film has veteran movie stars Francis Ng, Julian Cheung and Charmaine Sheh on board.
