Survey on China Changing the Ending of the Minions Movie

“Minions: The Rise of Gru,” the fifth and most recent film in the Despicable Me franchise, was released in China with changes that completely altered the movie’s ending. Viewers have noticed a few differences between the ending of the original version and the one shown in Chinese cinemas.

According to Weibo users, the version shown to Chinese viewers included some cut scenes of what originally happened at the end of the story. As a result, viewers have mocked the film’s alternate ending, with some comparing it to a PowerPoint presentation.

Imports of entertainment, including foreign films, are subject to stringent controls in China. China’s procedures and rules for approving foreign media reflect the Chinese Communist Party’s view that art, including film, is a method of social control. It’s incredible how pervasive Chinese influence is on Hollywood films, dictating everything from dialogue to costume choices and, in some cases, completely altering plotlines. China prohibits certain films for a variety of reasons. For example, any movie that could be perceived as a slight on the Chinese government will not be permitted.

The censorship of the Minions movie is just an example of how China filters films. Furthermore, this is not the first time a popular foreign film has been subjected to significant cuts or changes in an attempt to maintain access to Chinese theaters. China also censored movies like Titanic, Fight Club, Avengers: Endgame, and much more. Moreover, they prohibited films such as Ghostbusters, Back to the Future, and Avatar from being shown in their theaters.

The practice of cutting or altering scenes that do not conform to Communist Party ideals from Hollywood movies has been present for roughly 25 years. Accordingly, Real Research conducted a survey to gauge respondents’ knowledge of this matter.
