[Make a brief introduction to the newly released films in the theater every week, so that you can judge which ones are more worthy of going to the theater, here will be attached my personal expectations, but this is my subjective judgment, the specific like or dislike depends on yourself. Expectations only represent expectations, and will be corrected after reading them. 】
There are really a few new films this week, but it seems that the attraction is not particularly large.
Video footage
1. "Divergents: Alien Awakening" Expectation Index: ★★★
Director: Neil Borg
Writers: Evan Dahdi / Vanessa Taylor
Starring: Sherlyn Woodley / Theo James / Ashley Judd / Jay Courtney / Ray Stevenson / Zoe Krowitz / Miles Teller / Tony Godwin / Ansel Allergen / Maggie Lee / Maech Feffa / Kate Winslet / Ben Lloyd Hughes / Christian Madsen
Genre: Action / Romance / Sci-Fi / Adventure
Country of Production: United States
Language: English
Release: 2014-09-08
Like films like The Hunger Games, this film is an adaptation of a teen novel. This has become a popular genre in Hollywood today. Various films adapted from teen novels have made their way to the big screen. The same takes place in a virtual utopian world, the story of a group of teenagers fighting with adults to save the world. Such works first satisfies the imagination of teenagers to fight for the right to speak and control the world.
"The Divergent" has been released in North America in March, and the starring Sherlyn Woodley sister is also the biggest hit this year, including her romantic film "The Fault in the Stars" is also very concerned. The two films also won multiple awards at previous Teen Choice Awards. For me, though, the first thing to watch is Kate Winslet. Since winning the Oscar, she has stopped being as cautious as she used to be. "Divergent" is also a blockbuster film she has rarely received in recent years.
However, the evaluation of this film in North America is not so good. Rotten Tomatoes has a freshness rating of only 41%, 5.4. Metacritic 48 points. IMDb has a slightly higher audience rating of 7. The whole is still a relatively mediocre film.
2. "Not Afraid of the Storm" Expectation Index: ★★★
Director: Steven Querrey
Writers: John Svetnham
Starring: Richard Armitage / Sarah Wayne Callis / Matt Walsh / Max Deacon / Nathan Kles / Alicia Debonan Carey / Aaron Escabenta / Jeremy Sampout / Lee Whitaker / Kyle Davis / Jon Repe / Scott Lawrence / David Drummer / Brandon Ruit / Jimmy Gross
Genre: Action / Thriller / Disaster
Release: 2014-09-12
In a disaster movie, the protagonist is a tornado. The powerful destructive power of the hurricane will be the main attraction of this film. Of course, the protagonist of this film, Richard Armitage, will also be an important highlight of this film, especially after starring in "The Hobbit", his popularity is even more bullish.
Disaster films have always been a rare genre in mainland theaters, and it is estimated that some audiences will like it. However, the North American evaluation of this film is also very bad. Rotten Tomatoes has a freshness rating of only 21%, 4.4. Metacritic is also 44 points. IMDb 6.3.
3. "Beauty and the Beast" Expectation Index: ★★★
Director: Christopher Gans
Writers: Sandra Vaughan / Christopher Gans
Starring: Vincent Casso / Leia Saidu / André Dussorie / Eduardo Noriega / Miriam Charlins / Audrey Rami / Sarah Giorgio / Jonathan Demuje / Nicolas Gobb / Luka Meliva / Yvonne Katfield / Dejan Buchin / Wolfgang Menadi / Micky Hart / Arthur Doppler
Genre: Romance / Fantasy
Country/Region of Production: France / Germany
Language: French
Classic story, and there are many experiences of visualization. Both lead actors, Vincent Cassel and Leia Saidu, are both eye-catching. The art seems to stand out. But the film itself is not so well evaluated. IMDb scored 6.5 points. You judge for the rest.
4. "One Day" Expectation Index: ★★★
Director: Li Ruijun / Yi Xiaoxing / Tian Yuan / Wang Daqing / Liu Yonghong / Du Bo / Tong Zhijian / Jiang Ying / Yang Zhilin
Writers: Du Bo / Zhang Ji / Li Ruijun / Qian Tiantian
Starring: Zhou Xun / Han Geng / Feng Shaofeng / Yuan Shanshan / Zhang Hanyu / An Yixuan / Xu Fan / Si Qinggaowa / Wang Qianyuan / Xiong Naijin / Yong Mei / Feng Jiayi
Genre: Drama / Child
Country of Production: Chinese mainland
Language: Mandarin Chinese
Release: 2014-09-10
The filmmakers call it a public welfare film, a collection of short films. Turn to a Douban introduction: The film is composed of 9 warm and inspirational short stories, telling the stories of 9 vulnerable groups of children chasing their dreams. The nine stories focus on: poor children, children with dyslexia, children with intellectual disabilities, abducted children, blind children, obese children, deaf and mute children, ethnic minority left-behind children, and children of prisoners.
This kind of short film collection is actually very difficult to think of, and it is rare to have one or two short films. Of course, this is more of a topicality.
5. "Girls' Dormitory" Expectation Index: ★
Director: Liang Ting
Writers: Liang Ting
Starring: Wen Xin / Cheng Yi / Yin Zheng / Zhao Dona / Zhao Meitong / Wang Qianyi / Du Shuangyu / Jinggangshan
Genre: Suspense / Thriller
I reckon the only thing to watch in this film is the poster.
In addition, this week there are also romance films "I Am Your Savage Girlfriend", another love film "0.5 Love" and I don't know what film "Lonely Shadow in the Forest", I will not introduce.
