"Lat Mat 7" was released at the end of April, creating a frenzy and conquering various box office milestones. The film directed by Ly Hai set a record with 102,000 pre-sold tickets, earning 100 billion VND in over 3 days, surpassing 3 million viewers in 10 days.

Along with "Mai" starring Trấn Thành, "Lat Mat 7" is a rare successful Vietnamese film in the first half of this year amidst the majority of films in theaters facing losses. Most recently, "Cai gia cua hanh phuc" (starring Thai Hoa) produced by Xuan Lan left theaters with a revenue of 26.3 billion VND, despite having an investment budget of 37 billion VND.

After 4 consecutive weeks leading the box office, in the past 2 weeks, "Lat Mat 7" has started to lose its momentum, giving up the top spot in daily revenues to the animated film "Doraemon and the Earth Symphony".

This weekend, Ly Hai's film will face another competitor in the form of "Garfield: The Movie - Fat Cat Super Prankster" - a film released in celebration of International Children's Day.
