A total of seven new films were released this week
From the best of the Berlin Silver Bear Awards, to the cannon fodder that routinely cheats money
From niche literary films with excellent reputation to romantic comedies that cater to the tastes of the public
There are good rotten ones, and the choice is very wide.
A week before the big file period (May 1st file), the cinema film can still have such a grand situation, which is rare.
In fact, the more wide the choice, the more necessary it is to understand the content of each film.
Choose a video that suits your taste.
Don't waste your precious weekend time on a bad movie.
This week's theatrical film inventory, for your reference.
Isle of Dogs
Director: Wes Anderson
Starring: Brian Colonston / Edward Norton / Scarlett Johansson
Seeable Index: A must see
Wes Anderson is the kind of director whose work must be a masterpiece.
So whenever he has something new to do, he has full expectations.
This is Wes Anderson's second stop-motion feature film, the last being 2009's The Great Fox Daddy.
The film was nominated for an Academy Award, a Golden Globe and an Annie Award, almost all of the most gold-winning awards in the animation category.
And Wes Anderson is also one of these hollywood live-action directors, who can rarely maintain a sincere childlike heart and shoot such a beautiful stop-motion animation.
This "Isle of Dogs", in addition to the gold medal guarantee of director Wes Anderson, there is also an incomparably luxurious dubbing team.
"Old White" Brian Cranston, Edward Norton, Scarlett Johnson, Bill Murray, "Cohen Sister-in-Law" Francis McDormand...
More than half of the "acting skills" in cartoons depend on the performance of the voice actors.
In de-frame animation, voice actors have a higher proportion of influence on the quality of the film.
Therefore, the hard guarantee of "acting" in "Isle of Dogs" is not vain at all compared to the director.
At present, the Douban score of this film is as high as 8.5,
Rotten Tomatoes Freshness 91%
In addition, at the Berlin Film Festival at the beginning of the year, this film was shortlisted for the main competition unit.
Wes Anderson also won the Silver Bear for Best Director for it.
Without further ado, the only must-see this week is Isle of Dogs.
Five star recommendation!
Off-order urgent
Director: Ke Mengrong
Starring: Dong Zijian / Zhong Chuxi / Spring summer
Seeable Index: Watchable
If you recommend an urban romantic comedy to you before the release, the error rate must be very high.
The reason why this one is listed as "watchable" is mainly because of the lineup.
The male protagonist Dong Zijian was nominated for the Golden Horse Award for Best Actor ("The Old Man of Mountains and Rivers")
Double heroine, Zhong Chuxi was nominated for the Golden Horse Award for Best New Actor ("Fanghua")
Spring and summer is the first post-90s golden queen in history
Among the young generation of actors, the above three are probably the most capable of business.
And they don't have a nasty point either.
So for the cooperation of these three, I am quite looking forward to it.
Judging from the posters and slogans such as "no code release", this should be an urban comedy.
In China's policy conditions and market environment, there are many restrictions on sexual comedy and very few.
But this type of film is indeed a kind of just need of the audience.
So we've seen some of the recent urban comedies, from "Love Saint" to "The Ex 3", all of which have become box office hits.
"Off the List of Emergencies", with basic expectations.
Adult audiences who like comedy, especially sexual comedy, can take a look.
21 carats
Director: He Nian
Starring: Guo Jingfei / Di Li Reba / Dapeng / Bao Bell
Seeable index: Look carefully
It's a drama adaptation.
"21 Carat" was originally a drama starring Guo Jingfei,
In the past two years, drama adaptations represented by Happy Twist have been extremely successful.
In addition, Guo Jingfei has also been on fire in the past two years
"21 Carats" was logically adapted to the big screen.
From the title of the film, you can feel that this film is full of a strong copper smell of money.
The collision of modern people's views on money and consumption.
In domestic films, this kind of plot is easy to play a bad and ugly.
Watch with caution.
Unless you're running to Di Lieba's face.
Please fall in love with me
Director: Dong Chunze
Starring: Jiang Tao / Qian Dongyi / Junsheng
Seeable Index: Not to be seen
Under normal circumstances, unless it is an imported film that encounters a silly translation,
The name of the film can be seen in the seven points of quality.
For example, this movie is called "Please Fall in Love with Me", and I don't want to see it.
Please, go away.
The smell of rice blossoms
Director: Peng Fei
Starring: Ying Ze / Ye Bu Le / Ye Men
This film needs to be paid attention to.
Although the number of films is very small, it is a very good domestic literary and artistic film.
In the past year, this film has competed in major film festivals at home and abroad, and won numerous awards.
From the Venice Film Festival to the domestic FIRST Youth Film Festival and the Pingyao International Film Festival, all of them have attracted much attention and left a good reputation.
It's a film about family and affection that focuses on left-behind children in China.
It should have been a very heavy topic, but the style of the whole film is very fresh, even beautiful.
This makes the film look unique and acclaimed.
And a big reason for this is because there is a super awesome creative lineup behind it:
The photographer is Cai Liangliang's royal photographer Liao Benrong
The soundtrack is Takeshi Kitano's regular score, Keiichi Suzuki
The clip is Chen Bowen, who cut out "Yiyi" and "The Juvenile Murder Incident on Muling Street"
With these few, it is enough for the audience to walk into the cinema to feel the film.
Friends who are interested in art films should not miss this "Taste of Rice Blossoms".
Frozen Mystery Case
Director: Tang Yu
Starring: Wei Lun / Huang Miyi / Miao Qing
The synopsis looks quite engaging:
Doctor Xia Zheng wakes up from a car accident coma and finds himself trapped in a chamber of secrets with seven unrelated people! A dusty last word by the suicide girl Lu Xiaolu kicked off the bloody prelude - heaven is on the left, hell is on the right. If you want to survive, you must find the key, find the murderer, and kill him!
However, clues emerge one after another, and the truth gradually surfaces - everyone present has led to Lu Xiaolu's suicide! Suspicion and suspicion spread like a plague, the evil of human nature is infinitely magnified, and the fate of the eight people will go from here...
It is simply a domestic "Chainsaw Horror"
However, due to various reasons such as scale, it is impossible for domestic films to truly appear in "Chainsaw Horror".
Otherwise, there would have been such a film with a large lineup.
And this "Frozen Mystery Case", from the main creator to the starring lineup,
There really isn't much to look forward to.
The ideal path
Director: Ke Zhou
Starring: Shi Hongbo / Zhang Naiyuan / Le Zilong
It is said to be a film with a strong one-step action scene.
But action scenes like this
I was a little scared.
In addition, the promotional draft of this film wrote: "The Ideal Road" shocked the international film festival.
I went to check it out, and this "international film festival" refers to the Houston Film Festival in the United States.
This film is only shortlisted.
So what is the level of this film festival?
I don't want to explain too much, just one thing:
"Rescue Against Time", which has a Douban score of only 4.9, was also shortlisted for the Houston Film Festival.
Not only was it shortlisted, but it also won the Best Picture Award.
Not only did it win the Best Picture Award
Our lead actor Yang Mi also won an "international film queen" in that session.
I think the rest of you will experience it on your own.
The above is this week's new film recommendations, do you think about which one to watch?
