It points out that the reasons lie in three aspects: ideological differences, linguistic differences and different translation purposes. Firstly, this paper expresses the present researches on movie title translation, and finds out the area which can be further studied. Secondly, this paper respectively proves that the differences in ideology, linguistic habits and translation purposes cause the disunity of the movie title translations in Hong Kong, Taiwan and Mainland under the guide of the theory of culture, by comparing the different cultural backgrounds in these regions with plenty of the translation examples. The last part concludes the discussion along with the confession of the weaknesses involved in this research.
