This month's cinema films, "Beyond", "When Men Are in Love", "Hello World", "Sunshine Sister Tao", "Tropical Past" and many other new films were released, bringing a wave of box office growth to the cinema. Among them, Zheng Kai's "Beyond" has exceeded 100 million box office, 6 days after release to get 105 million; "When Men Are in Love" with word of mouth counterattack, became the first in the box office list, and several other films also have tens of millions of box office revenue, with the arrival of next weekend, are very promising to break through the 100 million box office mark.
But even in so many new films released in the theater, there are also many films that have been squeezed into the bottom of the box office list, and there is no doubt that most of them are completely bad films, and the movie "Fan Sister Romance" starring Zhou Dongyu, Qin Hailu, Yan Ni, as well as Wei Chen and Sheng Yilun is one of them. The film was released for 21 days and only grossed 2.39 million. By the 16th, the movie had been released, and the box office was 0. There will be no box office growth on the 17th and beyond, and the film may try to switch to the online platform next. In the nearly one month of release, it only grossed 2.39 million, which is a huge loss for a movie that collects after-view.
There are many netizens who have expressed their views on this movie. The side that supports the film believes that the CP sense of Zhou Dongyu and Wei Chen in the movie is very good, and the two actors are not only acting online, but also very compatible, and there is no sense of drama at all. Most netizens expressed great approval for the roles of Zhou Dongyu and Wei Chen, but expressed unanimous disapproval of the rest of the film.
The opponents of the film criticized these shortcomings in the film and pointed the finger at the main actors in the film. Some netizens think that Sheng Yilun maintains the same expression throughout the whole process, which is really very "absolute". The plot is crotch-pulling, the plot is confusing, the acting skills of several actors in the modern drama part are not online, and the male protagonist Sheng Yilun has only one expression in the whole film that is too stiff and so on. Some netizens even directly criticized the screenwriter for "writing the script with his feet", believing that the film script was done very poorly, resulting in a poor sense of plot logic, too straightforward line dialogue, and so on. Some netizens directly criticized this movie as "one of the bad films of the year" and wasted money.
On acting, the film gathers the film queen Zhou Dongyu and Qin Hailu and Yan Ni after the film, which will not make this movie a bad film. On the appeal of the box office, Zhou Dongyu as a "box office elixir" should not let this movie get such a poor box office. So what is the real reason why this "Lost Sister Romance" hit the street?
There are two reasons for this.
First, the film directors and screenwriters did not seriously polish the script. As netizens said, the script of the movie is not done well, the sense of logic is poor, the line docking is not good, and some places even ignore reality in order to complete the "fairy tale". For example, the girl played by Zhou Dongyu fell in love with a boy who could sing Luo Dayou's song in a bar years ago and wanted to associate with him.
The point is that she will still think that he is Luo Dayou, Luo Dayou is a popular star, how can he appear in the bar? This basic logical error not only makes the plot of the film superficial and in-depth, but also makes the audience feel that the IQ is pressed to the ground and rubbed. There are many plot settings like this that ignore logic, as the netizen above said, the screenwriter seems to be "writing the script with his feet".
Second, the acting skills of some actors are not online, which is easy to make the audience play. First of all, as netizens said, the parts of Zhou Dongyu and Wei Chen in the movie are very good, showing the young people's sense of love very much, and the acting skills of the two protagonists are also online.
The opposite of these two is Sheng Yilun's acting skills. The acting skills of several actors in the modern drama part are not very good, especially Sheng Yilun, the whole film presents the same expression to the audience, there is no detail of the action at all, which makes the audience feel stiff and dramatic. Sheng Yilun's expression throughout the film is the same, and there is no acting skill to speak of.
Among all the characters in this movie, only the outstanding performances of Zhou Dongyu and Wei Chen have been highly recognized by the audience. Zhou Dongyu has also frequently picked up good films in recent years, like this "Fan Girl Romance" is actually a play she played in 2017, but this movie is backlogged until 2021 to choose to release.
Although Zhou Dongyu appeared in this bad film, her acting skills are still convincing. Some viewers said that even if the movie is bad, it can't stop Zhou Dongyu's aura. Throughout Zhou Dongyu's entire acting career, her acting skills have been improving, and few bad films have been filmed.
The earliest 2010 participation in Zhang Yimou's "Hawthorn Tree Love" is well known to the audience, from the beginning of stepping into the film circle, Zhou Dongyu has stood at the top of the position, the identity of the girl has brought her her own aura at the same time, but also let the audience recognize this new generation of actresses with solid acting skills.
In 2014, the unpunished director Guo Fan made a movie "You at the Same Table", in which Zhou Dongyu, who played the male protagonist's first love, portrayed this role well, although the rating was not high, but the film box office won 456 million yuan. She also won the 15th Chinese Film and Media Awards Most Watched Actress of the Year Award. This film not only allows the audience to witness Zhou Dongyu's acting skills again, but also establishes her status as a "box office elixir".
In 2016, a "July and Ansheng" once again made Zhou Dongyu stand at the top of public opinion. Although "July and Ansheng" only won 167 million at the box office, it is already a high degree that literary and art films can achieve. The film also scored a 7.6 point of word of mouth. At the same time, this film and Zhou Dongyu achieved mutual achievements, and Zhou Dongyu won the Golden Horse Award for Best Actress and officially became a film queen with excellent acting skills.
In 2018, Rene Liu's "Later Us" was released. The couple of North Drift played by Zhou Dongyu and Jing Bairan resonated with many audiences, and the film won 1.361 billion at the box office, triggering a collective resonance of the whole people singing "Later" and recalling youth together. With this film, Zhou Dongyu was nominated for the Golden Rooster Award for Best Actress.
Zhou Dongyu's acting skills have been growing visible to the naked eye and seem to have never failed. Until 2019, "Young You" was released, and Zhou Dongyu ushered in the first peak moment of her life. After the release of the film, it not only won 1.558 billion box office in theaters, but also scored a word-of-mouth score of 8.2 points, which triggered a wave of national movie watching.
Not only has the film's box office reputation been double-harvested, but Zhou Dongyu has also won multiple awards for this film, winning three post-film awards at the 33rd Golden Rooster Awards for Best Actress, the 39th Academy Awards for Best Actress, and the 35th Hundred Flowers Awards for Best Actress. This year's Zhou Dongyu is definitely the highlight of her life.
Then, there is this sudden appearance of "Fan Girl Romance", which was originally scheduled to be released in 2017, but has been delayed for 4 years, and finally released in 2021. This film in which the director and screenwriter pull the crotch, the plot and the lines also pull the crotch, even with the blessing of Zhou Dongyu, Qin Hailu and Yan Ni, the two actresses, have not been able to get rid of the possibility of becoming a bad film.
This movie is scheduled to be a bad film of the year, but this will have a more or less impact on the reputation of the main actors. Of course, although Zhou Dongyu participated in this bad film, her acting skills have always been well received by the audience.
Therefore, it is not terrible for actors to encounter bad films, it is terrible to have no acting skills and cannot act anything. Sheng Yilun has to work harder, as an actor whose acting skills are not very good, he is often criticized by the audience for having a stiff face and no expression, hoping that he can continue to work hard and strive for the next film to bring better works and improve the audience's stereotype of him.
On the other hand, a rare new generation of powerful actors like Zhou Dongyu, even if they encounter bad films, can calmly cope with them, sparkle in them, and get the favor of the audience, which is the best response of an actor who relies on acting skills to speak to bad films.
