Although it has just been the third day of the first lunar month, "The Watergate Bridge of Chosin Lake" (hereinafter referred to as "Watergate Bridge") has shown a strong box office appeal, and the box office has exceeded 1.2 billion yuan (the statistical deadline is 00:00 on February 3).
Nowadays, it seems that the only movie that can break the box office record of "Chosin Lake" is "Watergate Bridge".
In the past 5 years, the highest box office record of Chinese films has been maintained by "Wolf Warrior 2", during which there were many blockbusters that sold well, and before the release, they all vowed to break the box office record of "Wolf Warrior 2", but the truth was cruel.
Until the National Day file in 2021, after the release of "Chosin Lake", the film has created 89 records, and the final box office reached 5.775 billion yuan, and finally successfully replaced "Wolf Warrior 2" and became the highest record holder of the new generation of box office.
Wolf Warrior 2 has held the box office record for 5 years, and many media people expect that the box office record of "Chosin Lake" may be held for a longer period of time.
I did not expect that the "Watergate Bridge" released in the Spring Festival file let the audience see a kind of momentum, because just after 2 days of the Spring Festival, the box office record of "Watergate Bridge" reached 1.2 billion yuan, occupying half of the total box office of the entire Spring Festival file.
Just 2 days after the film was released, it broke 40 records, which is too fast, and I believe that it will soon break the 89 records of "Chosin Lake".
So why are audiences so enthusiastic about the movie "Watergate Bridge"? In fact, there are 3 reasons for this:
The first point: "Chosin Lake" in 2021 after the release of the National Day file, it has achieved remarkable box office results and good word of mouth, becoming a rare "box office word of mouth win-win" good movie. It is precisely because of this film that it has left a good impression on the audience and laid a solid foundation for the sister article of the film, "Watergate Bridge".
The second point: In the past Spring Festival, many viewers in the movie, the first choice is that kind of funny and humorous movies, think that the Spring Festival should be joyful, do not like to watch movies that make people cry.
Today's audience is more and more rational, in fact, the Spring Festival file should watch such a movie as "Watergate Bridge", only after watching the movie, can you feel that the current happy days are not easy to come by, thanks to the revolutionary martyrs, do not forget the well diggers, no matter how long the time has passed, can not forget their great achievements.
The third point: In the past, Hollywood movies and various types of foreign blockbusters were once all the rage in China, and because of this, many heroic characters were born, such as: Iron Man, Spider-Man and so on.
Today's audience has long passed the stage of "admiring foreign heroes", rather than worshipping foreign heroes, it is better to worship the heroes of their own country, after all, today's happy life is their own heroes in exchange, and because of this, domestic blockbusters have risen.
Movies all over the world have a convention that a movie is successful, and soon a sister film will be born, but there is also a spell that is difficult to break, that is, sequels, whether it is box office or word of mouth, it is difficult to surpass the previous work.
Now seeing that just 2 days after its release, the box office and word-of-mouth of "Watergate Bridge" are enough to give everyone a shot in the arm, and I believe that this movie can break the spell of "the sequel is difficult to surpass the previous work".
The movie is a big hit, in addition to the attractive story, the wonderful performances of the actors, is also one of the reasons for the success of this movie, there are many actors who are familiar to the audience, but their performance in this movie is completely different from the past film and television drama image, giving the audience a bright feeling, enough to show that they have worked hard for this movie.
In the past, when Han Dongjun was mentioned, many viewers still classified him as an idol artist, with a handsome appearance and good popularity, and when it was first determined that Han Dongjun would participate in this series of movies, it really surprised the outside world.
After the release of the movie, Han Dongjun's image in the movie is absolutely subversive, and many viewers do not recognize the role of Pinghe played by Han Dongjun without looking at the cast list, and pinghe goes offline in the movie, becoming a clip in the movie that makes the audience cry.
The movie "Watergate Bridge" can be called a good work of full-staff acting online, but there are also some viewers who have a lot of criticism because of the 2 actors in the movie, these two actors are Li Chen and Du Chun.
Li Chen Du Chun are veteran actors who have been debuting for about 20 years, and they all have a number of representative works, and the two play Yu Congrong and Zhang Yingchang respectively in "Watergate Bridge", and their superb acting skills have vividly interpreted the personality characteristics of these two roles.
The reason why Li Chen Duchun attracted the opinions and complaints of some netizens was because of the "knife insertion teaching incident" that occurred 10 years ago and caused a sensation in the entertainment industry.
In 2012, actress Bian Xiaoxiao broke the news on social media, Yin Xiaotian beat her in the crew, and Bian Xiaoxiao broke the news, which can be described as a stone stirring up thousands of waves, which soon caused the entertainment industry stars to stand in line.
Li Chen, Du Chun and other stars have supported Bian Xiaoxiao, complaining that Yin Xiaotian as a man should not beat women, and asking Yin Xiaotian to apologize, but after a few days of fermentation, the truth was late, and it turned out that Yin Xiaotian did not beat Bian Xiaoxiao, but just a little pushing and shoving happened in the crew.
Because there are too many stars, in the case of not knowing the truth, they began to spit on Yin Xiaotian, and these stars were called by netizens as the knife teaching, including Li Chen and Du Chun.
Although it has been 10 years since this happened, every time Li Chen and Du Chun appear in the work or in public, they will be mentioned in this matter.
In fact, after the truth of this matter came out that year, many stars who complained about Yin Xiaotian also apologized, especially Du Chun later reconciled with Yin Xiaotian and participated in some variety shows together.
As long as we know that we are wrong and do not make the same mistakes, as an audience, we should pay more attention to the works of artists, and we cannot deny a work because of their old past.
