Recently, Wu Yue's new film "Blocking the Horse and Snatching the Knife" premiered unsuccessfully on the online platform. This film is produced, produced and starred by Wu Yue himself, with a production investment of up to 15 million yuan, which was originally intended to set off a revival boom of martial arts films this year.
But the box office on the first day was only 190,000 yuan, which can be said to be very miserable. This sparked a heated discussion among netizens about Wu Yue and this new film.
The reason seems to be that Wu Yue wanted to learn from Wu Jing to direct and act in blockbusters, but there were big problems in the selection of materials and planning, which eventually led to word-of-mouth and box office double planting. This once again proves that it is not enough to make a good film by relying on large-scale production investment and celebrity self-packaging.
Wu Yue's own popularity and appeal are limited
As an action actor, Wu Yue's works over the years have received a general response, except for a few roles that are more prominent, most of the works have failed to leave a deep impression on the audience. The big online movies and dramas he starred in before, whether it was anti-Japanese or costume themes, had a worrying reputation and response.
The recognition and favorability of the name Wu Yue are not high, so it is difficult to drive the box office of the new film. "Blocking the Horse and the Sword" tried to attract attention through the name Wu Yue, but due to his limited personal popularity and appeal, the box office of the film's premiere did not meet expectations.
In recent years, the number of works has been single, and the quality is uneven
In recent years, Wu Yue's works have been relatively single, mostly anti-Japanese or remakes of classic themes. However, this kind of work generally has the problems of old-fashioned plays, popular stories, and blunt acting. Wu Yue's drama works are uneven in terms of completion and reputation, and it is difficult for the audience to establish enough trust.
Therefore, when Wu Yue brings new works, it is difficult for the public to have enough sense of expectation. Although "Blocking the Horse and Seizing the Knife" has invested heavily in the creation of this time, the quality of Wu Yue's personal previous works cannot reassure the audience.
"Blocking the Horse and the Sword" itself has serious quality problems
In addition to Wu Yue's personal factors, this "Blocking the Horse and Grabbing the Sword" as a work itself is also very controversial. Wu Yue's role is very small, only appearing in the first ten minutes. And the later plot completely revolves around other people, which does not match the trailer. There are also problems in casting, the real male and female protagonists are not good at action, and it is difficult to meet the audience's expectations.
There is moisture in the plot and character settings of the whole movie, just for gimmicks and stars. This one-sided pursuit of eye-catching effects while ignoring the core of the work is outdated.
Sum up
Wu Yue wanted to achieve self-transformation and revive martial arts films with an action blockbuster, but there were serious problems in the selection of materials and planning. It is not enough to rely on celebrity self-packaging and large-scale production investment, but also need to be supported by solid scripts and character building.
I hope that Wu Yue can learn a lesson and pay attention to the quality of the content of his works in the future, rather than gimmicks and packaging. Only a good work itself can make the star shine again and achieve a double harvest of box office and word of mouth.
This incident quickly caused heated discussions on the Internet, and netizens had different opinions on the performance of Wu Yue's new film. Some netizens expressed their disappointment, thinking that Wu Yue should not spend a lot of money to ask the navy to brush up on box office data.
However, some netizens defended Wu Yue, saying that the release time may not be good, and it may also be that the platform is not well promoted. Some netizens suggested that Wu Yue should choose a good script and role in the future, and not be confused by the packaging form. In short, everyone hopes that Wu Yue can reflect on the lessons and launch more excellent works.
Finally, I think that although the performance of "Blocking the Horse and Snatching the Knife" is indeed disappointing, Wu Yue still has a lot of potential as an actor. I hope he can continue to work hard in the future, constantly improve his acting skills, and choose roles with depth and ideological connotation.
If he can avoid being too formalistic and focus on content, I believe he will be able to produce a masterpiece that will be loved by the audience and fans alike. How do you think Wu Yue should develop in the future? Welcome to leave a message to discuss!
