The film title, as the movie’s face and label, is always put in the eye catching place to attract audience’s eyeballs at the first sight. Therefore, the study of film titles translation should be attached great importance to. This paper starts with the theory of dynamic equivalence theory, and takes a large number of classic movie titles as examples to summarize some main translation strategies used in film titles translation. Then the author analyzes different translation strategies, such as transliteration, literal translation and free translation from linguistic equivalence perspective and cultural equivalence perspective. At last, the paper indicates that translators should combine dynamic equivalence theory with specific translation strategies to make the target readers’ response to the original text similar to the original readers’ response to the original text. Eventually, this paper presents the audience a better understanding of different cultures, countries and thoughts. K
