In July, the new film Mrs. exploded, and I want to watch every one
The hottest summer stall is here.
Although the weather is terribly hot, the fiery theater line still makes Uncle Yu excited.
The finale of "Disappearing Her" in June has been in full swing. The box office broke 1.6 billion and has risen to the fourth place at the annual box office. The predicted box office is even closer to 3 billion +.
Chen Sicheng, who created a suspenseful explosion, was almost laughing.
Who can break the record of "Gone Her"? I have to say that the new films in July are not easy to mess with.
Chinese and foreign super blockbusters, dragons and tigers, not lively.
Uncle Yu also picked out the most anticipated new films. Perhaps the final winner of this summer's stall is among them.
"In the Octagon Cage"
Director: Wang Baoqiang
Starring: Wang Baoqiang / Chen Yongsheng / Shi Pengyuan
Release date: 2023-07-06
After six years, Wang Baoqiang returned as a "director" for the second time.
The previous tragedy of "Big Trouble" still makes many people palpitate. It wasn't until he saw the film in advance that Uncle Yu's previous doubts dissipated.
This time, Wang Baoqiang can be regarded as reborn.
The film is adapted from the real event of "Daliangshan Fighting Orphans".
In 2017, some media reported that a fighting club in Chengdu adopted many orphans to teach martial arts. For a time, a huge controversy swept through. Many people think that the story is very hot, and many people say that he uses children to fight black boxing.
After many reversals, the cause of the matter became known.
In this film, Wang Baoqiang became the person who fell into the center of the public opinion storm.
The role he plays invisibly echoes his own life. The same child who got out of poverty on his own, he knows the meaning of all this to those orphans in Liangshan. Therefore, this time he abandoned the crazy, silly, gag performance style of his previous kind.
It is a return to realism, more natural and more powerful.
I have to admit that Wang Baoqiang's second film as a director has made rapid progress. The important thing is that it is much more sincere than "Big Trouble".
Expectation Index: ★★★ ☆
"Drug Sweep 3: People in the End of the World"
Director: Qiu Litao
Starring: Liu Qingyun / Koo Tianle / Kwok Fucheng
Release date: 2023-07-06
10 years ago, "Sweeping Drugs" was released. 10 years later, the third part arrived.
The director also changed from the deceased Chen Musheng to Qiu Litao. Although the second part of the year 4 years ago had a bad reputation, it couldn't stop this series from filming non-stop.
Compared with the theme, Uncle Yu sighed the most about several leading actors: Liu Qingyun, Gu Tianle, Guo Fucheng.
The three old superstars are still fighting at the forefront of Hong Kong films. At the same time, there are familiar faces such as Luo Jialiang, Xie Junhao, and Fang Zhongxin. People can't help but admire these old drama bones desperately, but also lament that there is no successor to Hong Kong films.
Hong Kong police and bandit films that can't be made indiscriminately, and old Hong Kong actors who can't see enough. Good mouthful, not to be missed.
Expectation Index: ★★★ ☆
"Chang'an 30,000 Li"
Director: Xie Junwei / Zou Jing
Starring: Yang Tianxiang / Ling Zhenhe / Wu Junquan
Release date: 2023-07-08
Chasing light animation, back.
This time it is no longer based on classical Chinese legends, but is adapted from real history. Focus on the past between the poets Gao Shi and Li Bai after the Anshi Rebellion of the Tang Dynasty.
Compared with the previous "White Snake" and "New God List" series, such stories make people feel fresh. The thickness of history and the beauty of poetry are all shown in the film.
And the "big scene" that Chasing Light has always been good at can also be glimpsed from the trailer.
For the picture effect, Uncle Yu is not too worried. The only concern is whether it will repeat the previous mistake of "emphasizing pictures over stories". Moreover, the ultra-long length of 168 minutes will undoubtedly bring a certain amount of pressure to the audience.
Whether it is a surprise or a disappointment in the end will only be known when it is released.
Expectation Index: ★★★★
Mission Impossible 7: Fatal Reckoning (Part I)
Director: Christopher McQuairey
Starring: Tom Cruise / Hayley Atwell / Vin Reams
Release date: 2023-07-14
Hollywood's last superstar, Tom Cruise. Since his debut, he has starred in 34 movies and has a cumulative box office of more than 11 billion US dollars.
No platters, no superheroes, no animations. When it comes to personal influence, he is probably the only one in the world.
And the "Mission Impossible" series is the most special existence for him. Since the first one came out in 1996, 6 have been released. Every time is a lifeless real shot, and every time it makes people scream.
Climb over the Burj Khalifa in Mission Impossible 4.
"Mission Impossible 5" pickpockets planes with bare hands.
HALO skydiving (ultra-high-altitude skydiving and ultra-low-altitude parachuting) was achieved in "Mission Impossible 6".
In the seventh part, Tom continued to play with his life. This time, he played high-altitude motorcycle gliding.
In order to take a real shot of this 3,000-meter cliff jump, Tom conducted more than 500 skydiving training and 13,000 motorcycle speeding cars. The behind-the-scenes footage is heart-wrenching, and the final effect is quite explosive.
I still remember when I saw the trailer, I couldn't help but sigh in my heart: Tom is really playing with his life forever.
As one of the few Hollywood blockbusters in the summer, I believe that this time will definitely make us cool.
Expectation Index: ★★★★ ☆
"Tea Ah Two Middle School"
Director: Xia Mingze / Yan Kai
Starring: Xing Yuanyuan / Wang Bowen / Gao Yuheng
Release date: 2023-07-14
"Tea Ah Two Middle School" can be regarded as the youth memories of many people. Five years after the animation was stopped, I didn't expect to wait for a theatrical movie. This wave is really a surprise.
If you are a big fan of anime, you must not miss it.
Expectation Index: ★★★
"The First Part of Fengsheng"
Director: Urshan
Starring: Fei Xiang / Li Xuejian / Huang Bo
Release date: 2023-07-20
The first domestic blockbuster in the summer is finally here. The "Fengsheng" trilogy has attracted much attention since the project was established in 2014.
Filming began in 2016 and was completed in 2019. After 4 years, I finally saw the real face.
The lineup is unprecedentedly luxurious. It brought together many stars such as Fei Xiang, Li Xuejian, Huang Bo, Chen Kun, Xia Yu, Yuan Quan and so on.
Make a foot blood book. The investment is said to be as high as 3 billion yuan.
Human wars, fairy heavenly palaces, demons and evil... Grandiose scenes abound.
Director Wu Ershan once said that the first part will mainly focus on human dynasty songs. Therefore, in the trailer, you can see many famous scenes of the original work.
Jiang Ziya sent the list of consecrated gods.
Lei Zhenzi came to life.
Daji seduces the king.
Looking at the trailer alone, you can indeed feel the ambition of the movie.
However, Uncle Yu is also mixed. Whether it will be the "Chinese version of "The Lord of the Rings" or the second "Legend of Fengsheng".
We'll see.
Expectation Index: ★★★★
"Super Family"
Director: Song Yang
Starring: Allen / Shen Teng / Tao Hui
Release date: 2023-07-21
Happy twist, here it is again. This time, the brain hole opened to "superpowers".
The protagonist's family has a variety of strange superpowers. The sister can fly, the father is invisible, the younger sister is strong, and the grandfather does not die.
Only Allen's Zheng Qian has no ability. However, this does not mean that he is useless.
He is actually the source of the family's superpowers. Only by staying with him can everyone have superpowers.
Once separated by more than a certain distance, all superpowers fail.
The content of this film is not low. However, Shen Teng played the villain this time.
Use his "banknote ability" to fight against the opponent's "superpower".
At present, "Super Family" may be the happiest one in July. As long as you maintain the consistent level of happy twist movies, it will certainly not disappoint.
Expectation Index: ★★★ ☆
"Barbie"
Director: Greta Gerwig
Starring: Margot Robbie / Ryan Gosling / Helen Mirren
Release date: 2023-07-21
The most "strange" movie this year is "Barbie".
One of the leading actors, "High Commander", once acted very well. With his hair dyed pink, he said many times that this movie was fated.
When the trailer is released, it is even more curious. Everything is pink.
It is said that the crew ran out of pink paint all over the world for the sake of the set.
All are Barbie. Feet, always padded.
Dance, anytime, anywhere.
Chat, embarrassment to wear the surface.
The director of this film, Greta Gerwig, has always been very stable in the quality of his works. The previous works "Miss Bird" and "Little Women" were well received. This time, the story is also a clear female theme.
Barbie, played by Margot Robbie, suddenly found himself less and less Barbie. Her heels actually landed on the ground, no longer a perfect heel shape.
She also began to think about the meaning of death.
Thus, an adventure about Barbie's existential crisis began. Some people joked that "this will be a movie that is about to sensationalize film history".
Now it seems that maybe in one sentence. The strange painting style and the unpredictable plot only make people increasingly interested in this "strange thing".
It's really weird, when I go to the cinema to see how much I can blame.
Expectation Index: ★★★★
"Warm"
Director: Dapeng
Starring: Huang Bo / Wang Yibo / Liu Mintao
Release date: 2023-07-28
July's finale movie. As the closing film of the Shanghai Film Festival, it has long been preemptive.
The key word is burning.
This film.
Invite many professional dancers to join us and contribute to one dance feast after another.
Little people chasing dreams has always been the theme in Dapeng movies. This time, it is also with the love of street dance, which runs through the indomitability and growth of small people.
Hope this time will not disappoint.
Expectation Index: ★★★ ☆
The above are the 9 new films selected by Uncle Yu that are worth watching. In addition, there are two blockbusters in July, and the expectation index is five-star.
One is Nolan's new film, "Oppenheimer". The world is scheduled for July 21.
Uncle Yu knelt and begged, and the mainland hurriedly fixed the file.
The other is Miyazaki's latest 82-year-old masterpiece "What kind of life do you want to live".
Japan is scheduled for July 14. It is estimated that it will take some time to introduce the mainland.
It is worth noting that before the release of this film, there were no promotional materials. There is only one concept poster released in 2017.
Other trailers, new posters, stills... There won't be any. Dare to be so confident, it is estimated that there is only the old man of the palace in the world.
Overall, July's new films are quite abundant. Every week, there are enough new films to explode.
With the high temperature continuously, the cinema has undoubtedly become a good place to cool off. This summer, let's swim in the sea of light and shadow of the movie.
