Which film did you contribute to the box office?
Watching movies is really a matter of personal aesthetics.
Flip through the circle of friends, the world around you.
No matter how "good" the movie is, some people will scold each other. No matter how "ugly" movies are, some people will feel that they are precious.
Just as some people saw Jing Zhong serving the country in "Manjiang Hong", some people think that the three vulgar jokes in the movie are not very good. Some people saw the future of Chinese science fiction in 3 hours of "The Wandering Earth 2", and some people slept and finally woke up.
Someone learned to be "nameless" in "Nameless" - I am a weak person, unable to adapt to the era of great change. Some people can't understand who Mr. Jiang is and which Mr. Wang is. Most people who shed tears for "The Deep" feel that Betelgeuse is very much like their "inner child"; There are also viewers who simply feel dizzy or suffer from deep-sea phobia due to ink particle animation, and "bad reviews" really mean nothing else.
Some people think that "Chinese Ping-Pong" is very good, and "Chinese Ping-Pong" decided to withdraw from the New Year file first.
So everyone's feelings after watching a movie come from the projection of real life and inner world, can this be used to explain the bloody storm outside of this year's New Year movie? Extremely good-looking and extremely ugly appear in the same movie's Douban reviews and hot search terms at the same time. The good and the flaws appear at the same time, and the director's creative style is equal to this life. Hard wounds and excellent resonate in the same audience's minds at the same time. Yet we struggle to make our voices heard in the midst of the chaos of information.
Just speak with the movie ticket in your hand. PS: There are spoilers ⚠️ for the following
The courtyard spreads out, and the eyes are covered with a sheltered space like "Big Red Lantern Hanging High".
Shen Teng's characters appeared, quickly brought out the solemnity of the young general of Qianxi, the characters appeared one by one, just like the screen curtain separated by the prime minister, these seemingly unrelated characters were locked in the game by layers of overlapping screens and blurred account curtains, all lives are extraordinary, and the mystery is still clear?
The art is based on gray, and it is "Shadow" that is written; "Red Cherry" reproduces the moving appearance of "Jinling Thirteen" in the details; The transition drama changes the rhythm and has the absurd banter of "Three Guns Shooting Surprise", and finally all the soldiers dressed in armor recite "Manjiang Hong" and dream back to the grandeur of "Full of Golden Armor in the City". The national teacher who is over seventy years old uses this song "Manjiang Red" to pay tribute to his glory years, or sigh "30 meritorious fame dust and soil, eight thousand miles of road clouds and moon".
And the national teacher is still the national teacher, with his unique romantic color, plus the tone of Yu opera, with the characters smile, in the forced space with roundabout alleys to carry the exquisite and grand story of the layout, the actor will play the characters vividly, everyone in the play recited "Manjiang Red", the Yue Jun temperament is passed on to the ages. As a movie fan outside the play, I hope that Chinese movies "stay from the beginning, clean up the old mountains and rivers, and face the sky"! (Editor: Zhou Xiaohan)
"Can domestic film technology make science fiction?" I believe that "The Wandering Earth 2" gave the answer. Up to now, the box office of the movie has exceeded 1.7 billion, with a total of 31.35 million people watching the movie, which is undoubtedly one of the box office dark horses of the Spring Festival file.

The story of The Wandering Earth 2 is still set in a doomsday crisis: the sun will explode in 400 years, blowing up and engulfing all the habitable terrestrial planets in the solar system. In order to save our life home, mankind has formulated the Wandering Earth Plan.
The plan is divided into five steps:
The first step is to stop the earth from rotating with the earth engine, so that the engine nozzle is fixed in the opposite direction of the earth's operation.
In the second step, the earth engine is started at full power, so that the earth accelerates to escape speed and flies out of the solar system.
In the third step, it continues to accelerate in outer space, flying to Proxima Centauri, 4.3 light-years away.
The fourth step is to re-rotate the earth halfway through, reverse the direction of the engine, and start decelerating.
In the fifth step, the Earth enters the orbit of Proxima Centauri and becomes a satellite of the star.

Human beings call these five steps the brake era, the escape era, the wandering era I (acceleration), the wandering era II (deceleration), and the new solar era. At present, "The Wandering Earth 1" corresponds to the escape era, "The Wandering Earth 2" tells the "pre-brake era", the entire immigration process will last 2,500 years, it takes a hundred generations of efforts to complete, after watching the last two movies in full, you will have a more comprehensive understanding of the overall story.
If you say "The Wandering Earth 2" alone, COCO feels that it completely exceeds expectations.
First of all, the picture of "The Wandering Earth 2" gives people quite shocking visual effects: the space elevator rushes straight into the sky, the base collapses when the space station falls, the monstrous waves affected by the gravity of the moon, Liu Peiqiang, the broken city when Han Duoduo returns to Shanghai, the moment the lunar meteorite hits the surface....... Every frame makes you immersed in the scene, and the ignition is layered up.

As the story progresses, the director's description of feelings is also moving. Especially Hua Zi, he tried his best to give his daughter living in the "digital age" a complete life, and easily interpret a father's collapse and stubbornness.
As teacher Li Xuejian's interpretation of Zhou Zhe said: "Unity is the only way out, but unity comes at a huge price." COCO was also very moved by the plot near the end, and various countries sent more than 50+ navigators, and when they took a one-way ticket to the moon and pressed the strategic nuclear weapons detonation button, they sacrificed their small ego for the sake of the community of human destiny, for the sake of the big self, so lonely and tragic.
People around the world have not been happy under the ravages of the pandemic over the years, but as long as we unite, we "will see blue skies and flowers hanging from branches again." ”
This may be the warmth, warmth and hope brought by Chinese science fiction! (Editor: Lin Ying)

Before brushing "Nameless" for the second time, I said to my friends who were with me: pay attention, don't lose your mind.
As a spy war film, the characters, scenes and dialogue that appear staggered at the beginning of the film bring the audience into a puzzle of the nameless. The Nameless seeks a way to break the game in the film, and the audience pulls away the cocoon from the large amount of information and puzzles themselves. When metaphors find the answer and the puzzle is completely solved, the audience can find a sense of accomplishment through thinking.
At the moment of solving the puzzle, the accumulated emotions and secret speculations were like dark clouds, and finally the wind and rain blew. Hatred, Ye Mi said to the Japanese war criminals who wanted to return to Sonoda, "You wear it so that you can be distinguished from the crowd." I cannot agree that you take off this military uniform" when released; The heartbeat is comforted when Mr. Ho, played by Tony Leung, pats Ye Mi on the shoulder; The regret left by Miss Fang was even more difficult for Ye Mi to change into labor clothes.
At this time, looking back at the foreshadowing at the beginning of the movie, they are actually the catalyst for the climax of the story. Look closely, Tony Leung's micro-movements, Zhou Xun's muscles shaking, Miss Fang's looking back, the "wall-riders" standing in the two national flags, those seemingly inconspicuous teacups, those peeping perspectives that are easy to ignore... You will find the answer.
Director Cheng Er chose the "non-linear narrative" he is accustomed to, although this narrative method is "broken", but it is suitable for the group portrait shaping of "Nameless" and the secret and latent of "nameless" people. But compared with the director's "History of the Demise of Romance" seven years ago, the context of "Nameless" is obviously clearer. The oversized font display of the timeline and the scene screen that constantly flashes back are more friendly to the audience. At this time, I recalled the last few big words in the first movie trailer: super commercial film, and lamented that Cheng Er became a backbone from the box office of "The History of the Demise of Romance", in fact, the artistry of "Nameless" is greater than commercial.
The lens language and character dialogue in "Nameless" are restrained, but there is an undercurrent behind it, which needs to be tasted. The fate of the characters is mixed with teasing and jokes that come true in a flash; Even Japanese geisha, who have not appeared much, have a backbone. The only two violent scenes in the whole film, fist to flesh. It not only harmonizes the rhythm of the film, but also is the key to breaking the game. The best scene is the life and death battle between Tony Leung and Wang Yibo, blood is all over the screen, making people hold their breath and gaze, and it must be included in the "fight textbook". But the literary drama is even better. Liang Chaowei's flowing clouds and flowing water, Zhou Xun's heavy lifting is light, Jiang Shuying's sorrow is beautiful, Sen Bozhi's silk is intimate, and the actors' performances have their own elegance, layered on top of each other, and a mountain is higher than a mountain.
The director uses the group portrait drama he is good at to describe the choices of different people in the context of the times, between fear and belief. Some escape, some ride walls, some sins unforgivable. But more often than not, people who stand up and stand up. Each of their roles is different, yet plump and moving. They have no names, just microcosms of countless people of that era, a glimpse into the epic of the heroes of the Nameless.
The fairytale-like ending seems to be the director's beautiful hopes for the nameless. Everything is white under the sun, and people meet where the light gets. When struggling to escape from the dampness and darkness, the blood and the calculation, you may as well wait a little longer - at the end of the tunnel, there will be light.
Finally, What kind of movie is "Nameless"? It won't be a box office champion, but as an audience I will put "Nameless" in my movie list, and when I think of it, I will watch it again, because there are so few such movies. (Editors: Chu Qiao, Yang Zi)
Golden Eagle Award Best Actor Lei Jiayin, Golden Rooster Award Best Actress Xiaofei, Old Drama Bone National Grandma Wu Yanshu, not only that, but also gathered the three major comedians of crosstalk, variety shows, and talk shows: Yue Yunpeng, Yang Di, Xu Zhisheng... I think if I can get these actors together, the comedy tone of this film will not be low, after all, these are people who grow on laughter.
The movie tells the story of Xiaotani, a newly grown high school student, and Zhongda, a 30+-year-old lawyer with wealth accumulation, who start a fantasy journey after exchanging bodies by mistake. From anticipation to disappointment, the whole film did not give me the joy of going to the theater, the laughter was not dense enough, and some were still too old-fashioned. Relying solely on the actor's own sense of comedy in "tube" laughter, the script failed the lineup.
Exchanging lives changes very little for individuals. Although Xiao Gu is slightly cowardly and not brave enough, but he loves his family deeply, Zhongda also carries out the shrewdness and treachery, and after exchanging lives, he did not see the change of the two, and still maintained the essence of living, such an exchange is of little significance, but is forcibly sensationalizing and touching the audience.
It is also a little far-fetched to exchange life to make a big difference. The final foothold of the film is in "home", from the configuration of "love + comedy" to the theme of "finding family love + finding yourself", and the short 110-minute plot is really not enough to support. Whether from the perspective of love or family, the plot line is more chaotic, and once the audience has the feeling that it is "intentional", the perception will not be good.
It is worth mentioning that Zhang Youhao, who plays high school student Xiao Gu, plays with many drama bones, and his acting skills are online. The gloomy temperament exuded by the "white cut black" paragraph makes people enter the plot, the emaciated body has a sense of sickness, and the handsome atmosphere after "blackening" soars.
Xiao Tan's family atmosphere is also moving, regardless of money, this is a small nest full of love and happiness, just like the warm yellow bright lights in the house, warm and unrestrained comfort, the daily jokes and fights and jokes between the family are the most real portrayals of simple life, looking relaxed and not tired.
"EXCHANGE LIFE" IS ALSO CALLED "FIVE HUNDRED MILES" IN ENGLISH, THE AUDIENCE CAN MORE OR LESS RESONATE WITH THE LEADING ACTORS WHEN WATCHING, AND IT IS ARRANGED TO BE BROADCAST DURING THE SPRING FESTIVAL, AND THE THEME THAT THE DIRECTOR WANTS TO TELL IS UNDOUBTEDLY APPROPRIATE. No matter how far you go, home will always open its doors for you, and the warmest light will surely illuminate the direction of home. On the occasion of the Spring Festival reunion, cherish the people around you, cherish the small luck that belongs to you, and the happiness around you is the real distance. (Editor: Orange)
The combination of Deng Chao + Yu Baimei + Sun Li gives people the feeling that the landlord touched three pieces of 2 and couldn't make up the bomb. In the fiercely competitive Spring Festival movies, its existence is quiet, and its existence is not cared for, but it is precisely because of this that it has the opportunity to "open low and go high".
Over the years, many sports-themed film and television works have emerged, such as "Winning the Championship" that focuses on the growth history of women's volleyball and Lang Ping's career, such as the story of the ping-pong boy who has the same name and appeared in "Me and My Motherland", and the documentary "Awesome! Teenager", the audience began to get used to competitive sports being put on the screen, and the evaluation standards for this type of film gradually took shape. Everyone has a scale in their hearts, and "Chinese Table Tennis" is above the standard.
"Works that exceed the passing line", "A good play in the established framework", you can see a lot of similar comments.
If I want to add a sentence, I would say that it is the standard work of Spring Festival New Year films. Not the kind of top student who has gorgeous rhetoric and is too much above the starting line, but it is by no means an inferior student who is smart and smart.
First, the starring of Deng Chao, a high-national couple, is in line with the past tradition of "New Year films are familiar faces", and also improves the audience's acceptance, with a sense of intimacy when watching the movie; Second, the entry point is ingenious, it is not about the table tennis national team that wins in all battles today, but the Chinese men's table tennis that repeatedly defeated the Swedish men's team in the 90s, for the audience, this is a dusty history, open again, there is a sense of surprise.
Third, the lines have been polished hard, the coach's son spoke for the first time at the age of three, saying "sa", which is also the favorite word of athletes on the field, and there is also a very impressive sentence in the film "The officer will be scolded by the person who does not do it, this is the life of the officer".
As of January 25, the film's Douban score is 7.0, far exceeding the previous expectations of film critics. Whether it is released or retired, both inside and outside the camera, they are "Jedi Strikes Back".
Finally, after watching this film, I want to go to Shengzhou. (Edited by Yvonne)
"Big Fish and Begonia" says, "All living human beings are a huge fish in the sea." When they were born, they set out from this shore of the sea. Their lives are like crossing the sea..."Miyazaki's "Goldfish Hime on the Cliff" is another sense of "daughter of the sea". "Deep Sea" also takes the sea as the backdrop, and is higher than the other two "massive". All three animated films are about girls' growth stories, and they are all about mutual redemption.
In "Big Fish and Begonia", mutual redemption is a matter of life, and Tsubaki resurrects the human boy Kunai in order to repay the favor, keeping him as a big fish, and finally causes disaster. In "Goldfish Hime on the Cliff", Ponyo and Sousuke represent nature and human beings respectively, and under the appearance of fairy tales are fables of man and nature. And "Deep Sea" is more about the spiritual world, the protagonist Betelgeuse is the projection of everyone's inner child, the South River is her destined redemption, and the ocean is the link between two people who meet.
The movie "Deep Sea" exudes the temperament of Neptune, and the particle ink animation creates a beautiful and smoke-like underwater world, which protects Betelgeuse's depression and caters to Betelgeuse's sensitivity. The ocean is her deconstruction and reinvention of the real world, she is not really happy, her smile is just a protective color. It's like a big dream. Therefore, when the story ushers in a reversal in the second half, so many people cry and understand all the motives of this girl's behavior. I was originally broken, and people who liked me had to pick it up piece by piece...
The heroines of many animated films are perfect, like Nausicaa in "Valley of the Wind". Betelgeuse is an imperfect child, and each of us is imperfect. The person who gave the warmth of "Deep Sea" five stars is like Nanhe to Betelgeuse, just like the song "Imperfect Child" sings: Imperfect dreams, you accompany me to do. Imperfect tears, you accompany me to dry.
New Year is back!
This is the best description of this year's New Year's celebration stall.
