Preface
In the past two days, the movie version of "Flower Thousand Bone" has finally been launched in various theaters, and we all know that the TV series version of "Flower Thousand Bone" is the white moonlight in the hearts of all audiences, and when the movie version of "Flower Thousand Bone" comes out, many viewers are still looking forward to it.
But what people didn't expect was that when it was first released on January 20, the box office was still okay, but the number of films scheduled the next day went straight down, and the box office turned all the way down, and now the predicted box office is only more than 7 million.
According to the statistics reported at the time, the investment cost of this film was difficult to be about 50 million to 80 million, and it was only more than 2 million in hand.
Even the six princesses of CCTV came out to hit the pain point, saying that it is the worst at the beginning of 2024, how much worse is this movie than the TV series version?
The sharp comments of the six princesses of CCTV
This film was originally adapted from the popular TV series "Flower Thousand Bone", which was all the rage at the time, which not only attracted the attention of the audience, but also won the attention of the six princesses of CCTV.
was very supportive after it was first released, but after going to the cinema to see it, he was disappointed, and even bluntly commented that this was "the first bad start of the year".
This is also the first time I have seen such sharp comments from the six princesses of CCTV, and even bluntly said that the acting skills of the two leading actors Chen Turin and Li Chengbin still need to be improved, and the two did not interpret the image of the original characters very well.
Later, he criticized the ability of the choreographer and director, believing that the plot in this movie was not handled well, which made the whole movie lose the charm and attraction of the original work.
The comments of the six princesses were agreed by a group of audiences, who thought that this movie made them very disappointed after watching the movie version of "Flower Thousand Bone", and the quality and acting could not be compared with the TV series version.
And what makes the audience even more controversial is the choice of the role, especially the choice of the protagonist, which makes the audience not understand, and the image of the male protagonist is the most discussed.
The image of the male protagonist caused controversy
This time, the male protagonist of the movie version of "Flower Thousand Bone" is played by Li Chengbin, and the audience is still looking forward to his image, you must know that many of the male protagonists in the ancient puppets are mysterious and attractive.
And the white painting in the original book is a handsome and flawless appearance, just a kaolin flower that makes people feel unattainable, and Huo Jianhua's thin and cold image in the TV series is still more consistent, which makes people look bright.
But in the movie, Li Chengbin's image is a big surprise, you must know that he plays Bai Zihua, which is a teacher that countless girls cannot climb, Li Chengbin's image is not only not "beautiful", but gives people a very bulky feeling.
His image is too far from the original book, and he was even ridiculed that this is because the food is too good, and the master has eaten fat, and many actors will gain weight and lose weight according to the role in order to restore the role.
But when Li Chengbin arrived here, he didn't see it at all, is he reluctant to lose weight? This is far from the image in the audience's heart, and it may also be the reason why the audience can't stand it and can't bring it in.
When he first appeared, Li Chengbin's eyes were very firm, which made many viewers think that they were not watching "Flower Thousand Bone", they were watching "Shan Chunqiu".
In modern dramas, Li Chengbin is still very handsome, but when it comes to ancient costumes, it really makes people can't bear to look at them directly.
And it doesn't have the fairy feeling of Bai Zihua, and the face is also very dramatic because of the fat, not to mention that he is still doing very strange expressions, which is even more double on the big screen in the cinema.
Not to mention that there is no sense of cp between him and the heroine, the interaction between the two makes people feel sad when they can't get in, and it's just torturous to sit there and watch.
And many viewers said that many of the most failed points of this movie are in casting, and in terms of roles, it is worse than the casting of the TV series version of "Flower Thousand Bone".
Failure in casting
In the casting of the TV series, the heroine was played by Zhao Liying, and the baby fat on Zhao Liying's face at that time had not faded, and the whole person looked petite and cute, full of aura.
And in the early stage, Hua Qiangu was very simple and kind, which Zhao Liying played very well, and played Hua Qiangu, who had just gone up the mountain in the original book, very well.
We all know that Hua Qiangu will be blackened in the end, mainly because she has gone through a lot of hardships and been treated unfairly, which also makes her whole person look very crazy and sad after blackening.
And then look at the casting of the movie version, although the choice is very beautiful Chen Duling, but the overall feeling does not seem to be very consistent, this movie started filming 4 years ago, and Chen Turin at that time was still full of collagen.
But on the screen, she still didn't play the innocent and brilliant Hua Qiangu, and even the green tendons on her neck, even if the naïve and brilliant in the early stage didn't come out, even the blackening in the later stage was very strange.
It feels like he didn't understand the script at all, Hua Qiangu's blackening is because of experience, while Chen Duling's blackening appearance is very arrogant, and he doesn't have that feeling of having a story.
The makeup effect in the movie is also a point that makes people complain, the blackening is thorough, and it is black from head to toe, which is really no surprise at all, which makes the audience very boring to watch.
In addition to the heroine, even the best cute pet and good friend sugar treasure around the heroine are also unrecognizable, and the sugar treasure in the point is played by An Yuexi, and the sugar treasure she plays is not only very cute, but also the existence of elves in the hearts of countless audiences.
And the movie version of Sugar Treasure directly subverted the audience's aesthetics, and the audience didn't recognize who she was when she first appeared, but under a sugar baby, the audience's eyes widened, and the character with a rustic and strange hairstyle turned out to be Sugar Baby?
It's really incomprehensible, in the movie, the actors have been pretending to be very cute, and they are not as innocent and cute as in the TV series.
In such a comparison, the movie version really didn't look at it, and I don't know why I chose such makeup at that time?
After seeing Tangbao come out, many viewers said that they couldn't believe that this was something that was filmed at a great price, it turned out that they were all looking for roles and actors, but now they are all looking for actors to share roles?
The most excessive may have to be to kill my sister and kill Qianmo, in the TV series, Killing Qianmo is played by Marco, who was already played very well at that time, that kind of charm is extraordinary, and at the beginning of the audience, the audience still had a lot of opinions about the killing of his sister played by him.
But through superb acting skills, in the end, Marco really became the sister-killer in the audience's mouth, but the sister-killer in the movie was played by Mao Zijun, and Mao Zijun's appearance was still quite top.
But in the movie "Killing a Thousand Bone", neither the makeup nor the mask he wore did not match very well, and many people said that he was very suitable for being the male lead after watching his acting skills.
Although I don't understand, why didn't the director think of using Marco? Now Marco is already selling chicken feet at home, and the director didn't think of him, and this doubt is also a comment from netizens.
There is also a corner of light water, the audience would never have thought that she and Tangbao were both from a girl group, and sure enough, no matter who they are, they can't escape the magic of the camera, and they directly "show their original form"!
It seems that it is no wonder that the sixth princess said the shortcomings of the movie "Killing a Thousand Bone" so directly and clearly, after all, after four years and so much funding, it finally came out with such an effect, I believe that the investors have begun to regret it now, right?
And after this movie becomes such a box office, the director may be the most uncomfortable person.
The director sincerely apologizes
When the box office of the movie version of "Flower Thousand Bone" did not meet expectations, not even half of what was expected, the director of the film, Zhang Chaoli, immediately released a video of apology.
In the video, he said that he felt very guilty because the box office of the movie did not achieve the expected results, and he felt sorry for the producer and the entire team, and even felt that he had worked hard for four years and finally lost everything.
And Tang Lijun, the producer of this movie, said that the box office is too far from expected, and we are still working hard.
And this film is very important to the director, director Zhang Chaoli is the new director this year, this is not a film can be said to be his "debut", but in the end, if it ends in this way, then his subsequent career may be very seriously affected.
Although this drama is very poor in the eyes of the audience, Zhao Liying and others are all supporting the producer Sister Tang for this movie.
I have to say that Zhao Liying is still so kind, she understands the hard work of the producer very well, and she also supports the promotion of the movie, and she also does a good job of helping the movie.
And after the director apologized, many netizens in the comment area said that the director was about to be broken, and he did give so much hope before, and in the end it can be said that there is no harvest, no matter who it is, it is very uncomfortable, and it can't be taken back if it is released.
But to say that he is broken is just to say, but no one sympathizes with him, many people are saying that such a long novel is less than an hour before the movie is presented, and everything wants to be explained, how is this possible.
At this time, the director must be responsible, no matter what the final result is, the result that this movie presents now is still very disappointing.
epilogue
The box office of this movie is not high now, and it has even been named by the six princesses, and then it will be up to the director and producer to end it, let's continue to wait for the follow-up.
