Among the many film and television dramas launched in October, there are few excellent works that can make everyone's eyes shine, and presumably many audiences have fallen into a drama famine. But if there are no movies and television dramas that can be watched, it does not mean that there are no decent movies.
It is an indisputable fact that the quality of online movies has been criticized by everyone, but in recent years, the works on the online platform have obviously made great efforts in quality.
For example, "Dragon Girl" Mu Qimiya launched "I Am a Female SWAT", which is a female action film that does not rely on showing flesh to attract attention, and the fist-to-flesh fight scene makes people watch it heartily.
And the anti-black theme "Evil Must Be Removed" has also maintained a far leading popularity and box office results, with a cumulative number of viewers reaching 6 million and a box office of more than 20 million.
However, to say that the most surprising one, is the just-launched "Northeast Past: My name is Zhao Hongbing", this film has directly become a "handle", the first popularity, the first day has won nearly a million box office, obviously a small-cost film, but in this work we see the quality far beyond the theater movie.
A bright protagonist, a group of vivid supporting characters
"Once Upon a Time in the Northeast: My Name is Zhao Hongbing" can attract everyone for an important reason, inseparable from the film's shaping of the character image, from the title can be seen that this film mainly tells about Zhao Hongbing's character deeds, but after watching the whole film, you will find that this is more like a living group portrait movie.
No matter how long the character appears and how many scenes there are, the image of the character can be firmly established through some details. In this film, it is difficult to see some characters who are also good and evil, but to feel the real duel between good and evil. Although there is a reversal in the final characters of the film, it is only forced to follow the evil helplessly.
Zhao Hongbing is the brightest protagonist of the whole film, many years ago he once injured a person driving on a rainy night, causing the other party to be paralyzed, and Zhao Hongbing was also imprisoned. Years later, he was released from prison, and instead of choosing to evade responsibility, he found the victim for the first time.
Zhao Hongbing is a typical little person, but in this little person, we can see how determined a person is when he chooses to stand on the side of justice and wants to be a good person.
After seeing Zhao Hongbing, the victim beat and scolded him and drove him out of the room, but Zhao Hongbing learned that the other party was looking for his son, and without thinking about it, he posted a search notice everywhere and really found his son for him. After the victim committed suicide, he chose to hand over his son to the trustworthy Zhao Hongbing, and he has always raised the child as his own son.
In front of Zhao Hongbing, there are two cheesy choices, whether to be a man with righteous words, or selfishly consider the future and choose a sweetheart. Zhao Hongbing has not been entangled in the slightest, he wants to love people, but he knows the responsibilities on his shoulders and the promises he once made to the victims.
This character is always fulfilling his promises, and everything he says will be done, and this sincerity has allowed him to gain a group of good brothers and a lover who treats him sincerely.
And the hair salon girl who fell in love with Zhao Hongbing is also a very vivid image, among the supporting roles, she has not appeared for a long time, but her appearance back is impressive. Not only because of her beautiful appearance and style, but also because of her dare to love and hate, and her informality character.
From the beginning of opposing Zhao Hongbing's adoption of the victim's son, hoping that he would think more about himself, to the end he resolutely stood on Zhao Hongbing's side, left and turned back. Every time she said cruel words to Zhao Hongbing but was duplicitous, she could make people feel that this girl who was very aggressive in appearance was actually a good person with a hard mouth and a soft heart.
There is also Xiao Shen, the brother next to Zhao Hongbing, who looks humble, but can really handle things when it is critical. After Zhao Hongbing returned, he handed the restaurant to the other party, Zhao Hongbing was bullied, and he took his brother to the door without saying a word. The image of a brother who seems to be very weak, but is actually more righteous than anyone else, stands in an instant.
Although this film is only one hour and ten minutes, it really tells the youth and story of the Northeast generation in the 80s.
Bad film professionals? Bao Bell relies on supporting roles to amaze the audience
In this movie, Zhao Hongbing is mainly portrayed, but because the actor most familiar to the audience is Bao Bell, everyone's attention will be more on his Xiao Shen.
It is undeniable that Bao Bell starred in too many bad films before this, especially some comedy movies, such as "Big Red Envelope", "Fat Squad", "Northeast Love Song", "My Girlfriend is a Robot", all of which are films with a failed reputation. In addition, the reputation of Bao Bell's remake of the film is also difficult to meet expectations, so it is labeled as a bad film professional by everyone.
But in fact, Bao Bell's really outstanding works are often his masterpieces that play supporting roles in the film, such as Zhang Kai played in "To Youth", which is a somewhat oily but affectionate and single-minded boy, which is impressive. In "Big Man", he played the ruthless villain Zhao Tai to the point that people felt hideous and terrifying when they looked at it.
These characters, even if they don't account for the most scenes in the film, are often one of the most amazing supporting roles. And this time in "Once Upon a Time in the Northeast: My Name is Zhao Hongbing", Bao Bell, who plays a supporting role, is enough to make everyone impressed with him.
The Xiao Shen played by him has his funny side, such as grabbing food with children, or licking his face to fall in love with a girl he likes, as well as improper small actions during fights, all of which make this character joyful. But in front of the business, he is never ambiguous, his righteousness to his brothers, and his uncompromising toughness when bullied, make the character more three-dimensional and vivid.
Bao Bell's appearance and temperament are not outstanding, but his acting skills are very natural, and in the film, the most impressive scene is that he clearly rejects his brother, but stands with him at a critical time. The sincerity of talking about the righteousness of the brothers, and the image of the brothers stinky and poor, were easily grasped by him.
After watching this film, it is really difficult to connect Bao Bell with bad film professionals, sorry Bao Bell, never say that you will only make bad movies in the future!
Other actors, such as Zhang Junhan who plays the male protagonist, Kong Songjin who plays the hair salon girl, and Zhang Jiahao, who plays the gangster, are infinitely suitable for the role. Although these actors are not as well-known as traffic and actors, their acting skills are infallible. It turns out that a quality movie is never how strong the lineup is!
