To put it bluntly, the movies in this year's Spring Festival file are much lower than the audience's expectations.

Especially the loudest "Hot and Hot".

Last year, Jia Ling's "Hello, Li Huanying" broke the audience's tear ducts.

A movie with mother's love as the theme is in the play of newcomer director Jia Ling's youth.

There are flaws everywhere, and the universal "maternal love" has really achieved the effect of covering up all kinds of ugliness.

This year, Jia Ling's "Hot and Hot" once again worked publicity.

Just Jia Ling's gimmick of losing 100 pounds won the winning rhythm of the Spring Festival file for the movie.

Now Jia Ling's movie box office performance is stronger than "Flying Life 2", double Zhang Yimou's "Article 20".

It's a pity that without the filter of maternal love, the movie "Hot and Hot" was overrated at the box office.

Now, a week after the explosion, the problem has finally been exposed.

Click on the Douban comment area, and it is full of complaints:

"This can also have a rating of 7.9, and everyone here is responsible"

"It is recommended to read the original version, save money, effort and time"

"Awkward and low-level jokes, submissive performances, procrastinate rhythms, and stiff and abrupt turns."

What is the problem with the remake of the movie "Hot and Hot"?

01

The rhythm of the plot is wrong, and the literary film is transformed into a commercial film

In fact, it can be clearly seen from "Hello, Li Huanying" to "Hot and Hot".

Jia Ling's skills as a director have become stronger. Many of the images in the movie are full of literary and artistic feelings.

When Le Ying, played by Jia Ling, was frustrated in life, the picture of walking up the stairs was wrapped in loneliness.

The sense of atmosphere abandoned by the world.

When Le Ying completes her self-transformation, a shot of Le Ying coming out of the room is all in slow motion.

When she greets her past self, she does have a sense of atmosphere that feels like a world away.

The technique is full, and the literary atmosphere is in place, but it's a pity that "Hot and Hot" is shaped by the actors.

to the direction of the plot, the expression of texture, and even the box office results, the word "commercial" is bolded.

Literary and artistic films have been transformed into commercial films, and the abruptness runs throughout.

Many of the art shots that have been preserved seem so long and boring in the movie, and the only feeling of sitting in the theater is:

"Is this corridor so long? "Walking for so long", "Can't this scene of climbing the stairs be deleted?"

I admit that the female director's shots are indeed delicate, but "Hot and Hot" has also become stinky and long because of it.

Of course, the flaw that caused this reason is that the plot of "Hot and Hot" is too weak.

02

The main plot is vague and the story is too weak

The plot of "Flying Life 2" is the return of a failed racer.

Most of the film's footage is geared up for the Bayingbrook event.

The protagonist is in the process of preparation, a little bit of customer service fear.

The case with He Xiuping's husband in "Article 20" is the main line, and most of the scenes in the movie are collecting evidence.

In the process of collecting evidence, the protagonist gradually regained the prosecutor's original intention, and changed from excessive defense to legitimate defense.

But looking back on "Hot and Hot", it is inexplicable from beginning to end, and the protagonist is confused and has no pursuit.

fell in love inexplicably, suddenly fell in love with boxing, and the direction of the plot is not clear enough and there is no so-called inevitability.

The arc of character growth is not gradual, but abrupt but unsupportive.

I can see the female growth that Jia Ling wants to express in the movie.

But the plot that underpins this argument is too weak.

More often, "Hot and Hot" is like an inspirational MV with some laughs.

The watchability of the plot is not as good as directly putting Jia Ling's personal slimming log.

To put it bluntly, Jia Ling tried to broadcast the original "100 Yuan Love" movie to the effect of a commercial film.

You have to increase the storytelling of the original, but for now.

In addition to the fact that the publicity is very commercial, "Hot and Hot" has no competitiveness in terms of plot compared to the Spring Festival stalls.

03

The performance style is nestled, and the pattern is small

If you look back at the version of "100 Yuan Love", you will find out.

In fact, the original version did not put the plot on the issue of men and women at all, and the female topic amplified by "Hot and Hot" was not at all.

Let the current direction of publicity completely mutate, and the stories of ordinary people have now become women's stories.

It's not that women's stories are bad, it's just that the perspective is too sad.

Women's stories should highlight women's strength, not women's bitterness.

In the original version, the protagonist's performance is decadent, chic, and dejected, but there is still an inexplicable personality charm.

The protagonist of the remake, Le Ying, is the victim.

is a victim of family ties.

It is a victim in love.

is a victim of sexual harassment in the workplace.

He is also a victim of being taken advantage of by relatives and friends.

She was submissive, didn't know how to fight back, and whispered.

Like hob meat, he is not angry, and he has a fragile personality, and he can't stand his sister's truth at the dinner table.

I just want to ask if I have been raised by my family for 10 years, I don't work, I don't make money.

After sleeping until three poles in the sun every day, she said that she didn't want to say a few words, what reason did she have to cry and mourn?

Compared with Le Ying's grief in the play, what is more sad is the audience off the screen.

spent the most expensive ticket price to go to the cinema, but watched Jia Ling give herself a little red flower.

I was not comforted, but I was yin and yang.

And I really don't understand why Jia Ling's acting in this movie is so good.

is such a wretch, forget about the nest in the early stage, and one punch can hammer me to death in the later stage.

She still has a weak breath, she can't open her mouth to speak, and she can't raise her head when she speaks.

The lines are like mosquitoes calling, do we mean that you are so depressed if you don't eat carbs?

04

Jia Ling's situation, Wu Jingquan was right

In the past two years, the trend of inflated box office of domestic films has become more and more obvious.

"The Wandering Earth", "Changjin Lake", "Fengshen" and other large-scale movies that highlight industrial standards.

It's no surprise that it won billions at the box office.

But small-budget productions like "Hello, Li Huanying" and "Hot and Hot" are not cost-effective to win billions of box office.

Such market conditions directly reflect a problem, box office performance and film quality are not the same concept.

Once, Wu Jing, as a director, also experienced Jia Ling's peak.

His "Wolf Warrior" series did well at the box office.

But the word-of-mouth performance is 7 points.

Half of the movie's word-of-mouth is supported by the passionate patriotism and national feelings of fans.

In this regard, Wu Jing also said in an interview:

"A high box office does not mean that your level is high."

When Wolf Warrior won the championship in China's box office history, Wu Jing was worried

"I can't keep up with my knowledge and experience."

To put it bluntly, the movie is not deep enough.

Now, Jia Ling is facing the situation of Wu Jing back then.

A "Hello, Li Huanying" survived, and a "Hot and Hot" problems were exposed.

Recently, it was reported that Jia Ling's new movie is ready to be prepared, and part of the filming has already started.

The gimmick of losing weight is over, and the feelings of maternal love are over.

As the most commercially valuable female director, it is a bit too much to use a remake to support the box office.

can be remade with such an effect, and the results of the next movie will be a big question mark.

Finally, what do you think of the movie Hot and Hot?
