At the end of the Spring Festival file, the highest-rated "Sniper" finally showed a little momentum of counterattack, and it took three days to barely exceed 100 million, and by the 10th, "Sniper" had begun to impact 400 million, and "The Water gate Bridge of Changjin Lake" had exceeded 3 billion, becoming the 14th club member of the 14th film in Chinese film history. "Chosin Lake's Pratunam Bridge" and "Sniper" are two ways to open up the theme of the Korean War, a big scene, a small incision, a gun rain of bullets regardless of the cost, and a gun and a deadly bullet.
"Watergate Bridge" is an improvement over the previous work, that is, the restraint of deliberate lyricism and embarrassment, strengthening the expression of the sacrifice spirit and spiritual beliefs of volunteer soldiers, the information that has been released is that "Watergate Bridge" is mainly completed by director Xu Ke, you can clearly feel that although it is a master director of martial arts films, the battle scenes are indeed not as desperate as the previous part to show the martial arts of the volunteers - especially no longer playing airplanes. The rhythm is more compact, and the effect is obvious, because from start to finish, one thing, blowing up the bridge. Two and a half hours is doing such a thing, blowing up the bridge, blowing up the bridge, blowing up the bridge. It is not much to say, especially worth mentioning that the plot strengthens the intelligence of the US military, although it is a small plot, which is good, because a strong opponent can more highlight the gold content of victory.
At this point, Xu Ke's war scenes go away and Lin Chaoxian's style of shooting big scenes is definitely worth the ticket price for the audience who only goes to the cinema to see a movie in the New Year. But I have been blowing up the bridge for two and a half hours, and I am indeed a little tired to watch. This can be compared to Wei Xiang's "not too calm" comedy style, which is definitely a surprise at the beginning, and it is a little tired after watching for a long time.
There is indeed a problem, too many tragic shots, too many scenes of vanishing, including the scene of tanks crushing soldiers, and the big New Year's Day, there are indeed many children sitting in the movie theater. This is indeed a bit of a paradox, because the cruelty of war is self-evident, like the landing battle of "Saving Private Ryan" and the many scenes of "Hacksaw Ridge", the film has been graded for many years without success, and the way for excellent war movies to solve this paradox is to find the foothold of that war movie: anti-war. The guiding ideology of all war-themed film and television dramas should be anti-war, and on this issue, "Chosin Lake No Shumun Bridge" has increased its efforts in this regard. Of course, in the end, only Ma Wanli stood there, already anti-war in itself.
Seven companies are left with one Wanli, and the fifth class is left with one Dayong.
In fact, in terms of dramatic difficulty, the story structure of "Sniper" is more difficult to shoot, cold guns and hot blood are matched, and soldiers who are easy to cry become less likely to cry. In the two films on the theme of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, the last survivor is a small soldier, and the Chinese screenwriter is a bit interesting. Compared with the two "Chosin Lake", the US troops in "Sniper" are slightly more normal, and the shooting level is also very high. According to Zhang Yimou, the volunteer army side was directed by himself, and the US side was directed by Zhang Mo, who had better English, and the result was that the five classes of group drama were stable, especially Zhang Yu once again showed his powerful acting skills. The biggest problem is that it doesn't seem to be advanced "bullet time" used too often, a little embarrassing; the US military began to OK, I saw that this leading big brother is not a small video red Cao Cao, and sure enough, the acting skills are almost meaningful, and finally the US sniper squad obviously loses control of emotional management, a group of senior snipers who should be the most calm, the score becomes hysterical, and the collective shows the face of the big villain, which is a bit of a jumping drama.
Objectively speaking, in the future, there will be Chinese directors to make films on the theme of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, "Chosin Lake" and "Sniper" have indeed erected two new boundary monuments on the two roads of restarting such themes, especially compared with old classics such as "Shangganling" and "Heroes and Children", because this theme is really difficult to grasp, especially in the era when the level of appreciation of film fans is improving. No matter how much you don't like "Chosin Lake", you can't deny that purely from the war scene, it has reached a height in hardware. I think that if most people watch the two "Chosin Lake" in a row, the audiovisual enjoyment may become slightly tired, not because it is not enough, but because there are more, sometimes less is more; and "Sniper" is immediately in the pass of storytelling, and compared with the full screen explosion, the sniper theme has always been another touchstone for the war theme - such as the 2001 "Soldiers In the City" that let Jacques Arno and JudeRo cooperate. A two-pronged approach, a Spring Festival stall sets a very high profile for a subject.
The hottest blood in the right hand, the coldest gun in the left hand.
