Directed by Li Yu and starring Wang Junkai, Ma Sichun and Fan Wei, "Broken Bridge" has been officially released in the Chinese mainland market on August 13 this year.
"Broken Bridge" is a crime suspense drama film, which mainly tells the story of the sudden collapse of the Huangque City Bridge, a human skeleton buried alive for many years in the pier, and the daughter of the deceased, Wen Xiaoyu (Ma Sichun), embarked on the road to find the truth and revenge with the help of a boy who called himself Meng Chao (Wang Junkai).
Crime suspense films like "Broken Bridge" are still very testing for the actor's acting skills, if the actor's acting skills are not deep enough, then the role will not feel full enough, the role is not full enough, it will naturally affect the perception of the entire film.
As early as the filming of "Broken Bridge", the director of the film, Li Yu, said that she could make the actor Wang Junkai into the second "Yi Yan Qianxi" through this film, and at the same time gave high praise to his performance in the film.
Now that more than half a year has passed, the long-awaited movie "Broken Bridge" has finally been released in mainland theaters. I thought that on the first day of release, it could reach the position of the top box office in Japan, it could get a good reputation from the audience, and Wang Junkai's performance could also be widely recognized, but I did not think that all this did not achieve the expected effect.
On the first day of release, "Broken Bridge" only received more than 76 million yuan at the box office, which made it lose to "Lone Moon", which had been released for half a month, and failed to become the daily box office champion of the day.
In addition to the box office, the audience's overall evaluation of "Broken Bridge" is also mixed.
Some people think it's a qualified suspense film, while others think it's as illogical as a comedy. In order to show the conflict in the drama, the plot in many places does not stand up to scrutiny, and some of the actions of some of the characters in the film even feel strange.
For a suspense film, no logic is like no "soul", and the audience does not even have an interest in discussing each other.
There are also Wang Junkai and Ma Sichun, the two major actors, who are not very brilliant in shaping their respective roles, especially the scene where they kiss between them directly makes people feel a little inexplicable.
In fact, the film "Broken Bridge" has always been highly expected by the audience, and most people hope that Wang Junkai can reach the height of Yi Qianxi through this film, so as to become an excellent actor whose acting skills are widely recognized.
However, after the release of the film, the box office and word of mouth are not very ideal, and Wang Junkai's performance is not very outstanding. In this way, Wang Junkai not only failed to reach the height of Yi Qianxi, but the distance between him and him became farther and farther.
