During the Spring Festival holiday, I returned to the countryside, visited my relatives, and spent the last few days idle. I went to see "Chosin Lake No. Pramon Bridge" and "Miracle Stupid Child". #Movie Wonder Stupid Kids ##影视杂谈 #
"Four Seas" did not choose to watch because of the relationship between an actor surnamed Liu, "This Killer Is Not Too Calm" domestic comedy interest is general; Sniper is also a historical war film of the Korean War, a bit of aesthetic fatigue...
The last film of "Chosin Lake's Water Gate Bridge" was general, plus I was not too interested in the subject matter, and I did not plan to watch it. However, the girlfriend wanted to see a certain four-character brother, or bought a ticket to see it. [Cover your face]
In addition to feeling the fearlessness, perseverance, and national feelings of the volunteer soldiers, I was also deeply impressed by the portrayal of the US military in the movie.
The U.S. military retreated in defiance of orders from their superiors, and finally needed to destroy the supplies to evacuate. One soldier took out a bottle of wine, wrote on the bottle, "This is a bottle of wine that can end the war by drinking wine," and put it in the body bag of his comrades. There are several scenes in the film that depict American soldiers actually wanting to end the war and go home.
A good war film cannot escape a theme - anti-war.
We are grateful that we were born in a peaceful era and a strong country, and I wish the great motherland and national peace and security! [Thank you]
The next day I went to see "Miracle Stupid Kid.".
"Miracle Stupid Child" is set in Shenzhen, the story focuses on the marginal people at the bottom of society, telling an inspirational story of the bottom counterattack.
The plot arrangement coupled with the vivid performance of the actors makes people feel real and grounded, which is the real experience of the low-level migrant workers.
The whole movie has laughter and tears, inspirational and not blunt, which can be described as suitable for all ages. If you go to the movies as a whole, Miracle Stupid Kid is a good choice.
After watching these two movies, PS feels that Yi Qianxi's acting skills can be regarded as the first person of the younger generation. So much so that a friend of mine, who used to be prejudiced against these young idols, lamented in the circle of friends that "Yi Qianxi will become a new generation of film emperors in this way." The post-00s box office is well deserved.
The following contains spoilers, students who have not seen it, please recuse yourself.
"Miracle Stupid Child" tells the story of Jinghao, a 20-year-old Shenzhen migrant worker whose father left and his mother died, raised money for his sister who suffered from congenital heart disease to do surgery, worked hard to start a business, and finally counterattacked.
In order to raise money as quickly as possible, he had heart surgery before his sister was 8 years old. Jing Hao, who did mobile phone repair, used the loan of 50,000 yuan to recover a batch of problem mobile phones returned from abroad. Thinking of using them as refurbished machines, I have to make a fortune.
Unexpectedly, the refurbished machine was strictly investigated, resulting in a backlog of goods. Jing Hao found the boss of the mobile phone technology company and signed a contract with him without a deposit, and the other party asked for delivery within the time limit and the pass rate reached more than 85% to recover the parts.
In order to achieve this goal, Jing Hao embarked on the entrepreneurial life of opening a factory while working and raising factories.
The plot of the whole film is compact and natural, and the foreshadowing buried in the first half of the film is also recycled one by one in the follow-up.
Another advantage is authenticity.
The section of Jing Haobiao's motorcycle to catch the high-speed rail reflects the narrow and crisscrossing streets of the urban villages;
Migrant workers looking for jobs are crowded and full of shouting scenes;
Because of the work injury problem and the depiction of the black heart company fighting a lawsuit; there are also people coming and going huaqiangbei, who is urged to pay rent, who is borrowed money and does not pay back...
This is simply the real experience of the lives of the majority of low-level workers and migrant workers! It resonates a lot. [Tear Run]
There was one scene that impressed me.
The male protagonist asked his co-workers to repay the money, and finally rummaged through the boxes and cabinets in the co-workers' dormitories to find some loose money. He also lectured his co-workers that he was a "rotten gambler".
The co-workers sneered, "Aren't you also gambling?" You bet or lose even your sister's life! The man who walked to the door immediately rushed back to the house, pressed him and beat him while saying: "You tell me, what if I don't bet!" (The lines only remember the approximate meaning)
After getting out of the air, the male protagonist walked out of the door, bent down, and staggered to pick up the scattered change.
Coupled with Yi Qianxi's excellent acting skills, the male protagonist's vicissitudes, helplessness but not admitting his fate are vividly reflected. His sister's life is in his hands, what if he doesn't gamble?
When the advantages are finished, it is time to complain about some bad places. [Melon Eating Masses]
1, the male protagonist is too true, good and beautiful
As a low-level migrant worker who opened a mobile phone repair shop and pulled his sister alone, Jing Hao can be said to have no shortcomings.
Mobile phone repair technology is too high, but also can teach a bunch of employees who have no foundation. Strong personality, dare to fight, racing motorcycles to catch up with the company boss to talk about cooperation.
Being kind to people, not only mingling with the elderly in the nursing home, but also lending money that is not rich to workers. Help employees solve the problem of door-to-door. Knows how to cook, will take care of sister, is responsible.
The protagonist's aura is too shiny and somewhat distorted.
2, the main line of entrepreneurship is not realistic enough
Riding a motorcycle to catch up with the boss's same high-speed train, win respect, and convince the boss to cooperate. A migrant worker who repairs mobile phones at the bottom, why do other large companies easily cooperate with you and recycle the mobile phone parts you dismantle?
A group of 1,000 "stinky cobblers" recruited in a month, without a foundation, did difficult mobile phone disassembly work, and finally not only succeeded, but also reached the pass rate.
In the film, the people Jing Hao meets are very kind, and the captain of the aerial work team who pays more, Yue Ge, helps solve the boxing king, Uncle Liang who takes care of Jing Hao's two brothers and sisters, and the school security uncle who helps take care of his sister, and so on.
In the end, all the employees of the factory did not want to pay, and they rushed to disassemble the mobile phone parts at home to help Jing Hao, who had no money to rent a factory and pay a salary, to catch up with the delivery date.
Like one review, it's a mixture of reality and fairy tales. Compared with the description of the real encounter of the low-level workers, the entrepreneurial plot as the main line is not real enough. This is also the most criticized point.
3, the climax is not "high" enough
Joseph Campbell, a highly regarded mythologist of the 20th century, proposed the "hero's journey" structure in "Heroes with a Thousand Faces", a routine used in many Hollywood blockbusters.
After that, Good Vegetable Dock director Christopher Vogler will change it to 12 stages.
Simply put, it is: the protagonist solves and gets paid → the crisis→ encounters a major crisis→ despairs→ breaks the game and respawns (climaxes) → ending.
The final climax of the film arranged the difficulties of typhoon + injury + no money to raise a factory, but the employees stepped forward, did not want to pay, and rushed to work at home. The problem is thus solved "easily" in the next act, and the place where the climax should be did not mobilize the audience's emotions.
Speaking human words is that the difficulty set for the protagonist in the end is not difficult enough.
"Wen seems to see the mountains and does not like peace", the screenwriter set various difficulties for Jing Hao in the film, but because of the first two points, in the eyes of the audience, these difficulties were "easily" broken through by Jing Hao.
These points are a bit of a bone-picking meaning, after all, the film is to be artistically processed. [Don't look]
"The Stupid Child Who Feels Miracles after Watching" is not hidden in the overall flaws, and in 106 minutes, it gives everything that can be presented to the audience, which is an inspirational "fairy tale" story suitable for the whole family to watch.
Today's film and television works require that good people are good people, bad people are bad people and must be punished by law. You may only see homogenization and tiger-tailed works for a while.
The grand finale of "Beginning" has reduced its score a lot, and some overseas movies such as "Fight Club" have been castrated on video websites to change the ending.
When I watched the old TVB drama "Ninety-Five Supreme" in a cool way, I found that some gay shots were cut, and I obviously watched it last year... This is sure to happen again. [Tears]
It is also a miracle that "Miracle Stupid Child" can be made like this.
Recently, the spring festival ticket prices in theaters in some places have soared, and the highest ticket of "Miracle Stupid Child" has reached 90 or even 100 yuan.
Because the theater has been affected by the epidemic in the past two years, coupled with various reasons this year, Marvel and other foreign takeaway movies have not been released, the days are very sad, thinking that everyone will watch movies during the Spring Festival, and raise the ticket price to cut leeks.
But the small abacus is still wrong, watching a movie is not just need to eat is, learn the restaurant New Year plus service fee, very blue. [Dog Head]
This year's Spring Festival file is 2 billion less than last year's box office. The film and television entertainment industry may not be too good recently.
