5. Home Coming
Release date: Sept 30, 2022
Box office: 1.59 billion yuan ($237.39 million)
As the latest big-budget movie to retell China's effort to evacuate nationals overseas from turmoil, Home Coming soared as a runaway hit to top the box office charts during the National Day holiday, indicating the potential of patriotic movies in the domestic market, according to some industry insiders.
The 137-minute movie, adapted from an actual event in Libya in 2011, depicts what happened behind the scenes during the evacuation of Chinese diplomats from a fictitious country.
