On December 7, the third day of the release of "The Party at South Station" starring Hu Ge, as of 12:00 noon, the total box office has exceeded 100 million, and the first hurdle has finally passed, but it is difficult to completely relax, because "Station" was surpassed by "Frozen 2" released for 17 days, and the single-day box office ranking dropped to third.
If you pay attention to this movie, you will find that the biggest feeling from the film itself to Hu Ge is contradiction, and netizens also feel that hu ge is sometimes always exaggerated and ridiculed.
Some people look at him and occasionally feel sad, thinking that he is obviously acting has not yet reached the level of strength but has been forced to this position by all parties.
Hu Ge himself knows it, so he is anxious, and has been constantly trying, doing his best to achieve the expectation of transformation, so that many people feel that for "Station", Hu Ge is a little over-publicized and overexerted.
"Station" premiere, Wu Jing, who has cooperated with Hu Ge, came to the scene, saying that he was worried that Hu Ge would not fight for his acting skills from now on, and from this joke, he could see Hu Ge's helplessness, almost 40 years old, and he could also eat with his face, which was obviously a good thing, but it was really heartfelt for him.
From the film review of "Station", we can also see such an evaluation, Hu Ge completely subverted the past image this time, the role is a complete criminal, stealing cars and killing people, struggling and sinking in human nature, and the result is still some people who say that they are distressed.
It is no wonder that he will simply take the self-destructive image route in reality, there are awards and achievements, and now even the shortcomings of the movie have been made up, but it still cannot reverse the public impression.
Hu Ge's single role accounted for eighty or ninety percent, recalling that all the explosive points were on him, eating noodles I believe many people have heard, in addition, there are two impressive points of chasing people in the tube building, injured and bandaged, Hu Ge has full trust in the director, so that Diao Yinan can play the light and shadow aesthetics thoroughly, but ignores the fundamentals of the movie - the plot.
"Station" is based on real people and real events, the story is very simple, Hu Ge played by the car thief in a firefight killed the police, found out that he was wanted after deciding to let his wife report himself to get the bonus, Gui Lunmeng is playing a "swimming girl", in fact, is to the seaside as a place of work dust, want to mix a foot, Liao Fan is a policeman.
Looking at such a role composition, the brain flashed countless Hong Kong films, "Station" has no such charm at all, from the actors to the scene is actually a tool for Diao Yinan's self-expression, the characters seem to be plump and thin, thinking about a lot of behavior is not logical, just to shoot better to do so.
The prototype of the story is a whimsical idea of a big brother in the northeast, letting his niece come to receive the bounty, and when the movie arrives, he has to forcibly give human meaning, pulling too many people into the water.
Simple things are expressed in complex camera language, the audience will be confused and impatient, five minutes can be told, crammed into too many performances and divergences, let people think to tell a very big story, and later found that it is so simple? Even if netizens praise "Station" as worth watching, they have to admit that the plot is too weak.
It is no wonder that Hu Ge was paralyzed by spit on his face, and it is difficult for any actor to make too many expressions for such a plot, and the audience's bad reviews are basically saying: I don't know what I am watching.
At this time, looking at the plot of eating noodles, the chase and killing of the tube building, and the injury and bandage, I suddenly felt that the exaggerated lens was used well, and I could not say too many other things.
Hu Ge forwarded a microblog that picked up details as if to tell the audience that you should see more and brush more attention to this film, and to some extent, this behavior represents that the director has a certain fault.
Hu Ge's state and the movie "Station" gradually overlapped - not up and down, a little awkward, you said they were very poor, they did enter the main unit of Cannes, you said they were excellent, but they did not get back an award; the box office broke 100 million in three days, but the total box office prediction was less than 300 million, just barely qualified results.
Yi Qianxi, who just co-produced the cover and video with Hu Ge next door, was born in 2000, and a double "Young You" made most people recognize his traffic transformation road, Hu Ge waited for the opportunity of "Station", but got a lot of such evaluations: The movie can also be discussed and discussed, the starring is really not good, it is indeed too "difficult".
Therefore, some people simply feel that Hu Ge does not need the recognition of such a person, with his status in the industry, there is certainly no shortage of drama, but if you look at Hu Ge's works, some words do not dare to say too firmly.
Hu Ge's last big explosion was in 2015, "The Pretender", "Langya List" two works connected, all are praise, four years have passed, not long and not short, and now the actors of these two dramas have become a list of the current situation of actors in the entertainment industry, especially several in "The Pretender".
Hu Ge did not develop into the film circle at the beginning, but continued to shoot TV series, but even if there is a big explosion of actual achievements, the flutter is still fluttering, "Good Time", "Whirlwind Eleven", "Hunting Ground" these three dramas broadcast within two years, let Hu Ge simply go to "study abroad", and has not touched the TV series again.
Therefore, for Hu Ge, transformation and entering the film circle is not an optional road, it is a road that must be taken, otherwise it can only go back, and Hu Ge's "big brother" Jin Dong also confirmed this to him with his own experience.
After Jin Dong's "Pretender", the luck of the TV series was much better than Hu Ge, and he successively broadcast "Ode to Joy", "My First Half of Life", "Surgical Storm", "Mr. Love", and then it stopped abruptly, saying that it stopped, and the cooperation object also changed from Liu Tao and Jiang Shuying to Lan Yingying.
Hu Ge did not know how many times he had experienced such a route, when he focused on TV dramas, it was indeed a big explosion every four years, could it be that his future career should always be pinned on metaphysics?
If the upside is too small, it is bound to jump out of the circle, so looking at the supporting role of "The Pretender" is actually luckier.
Wang Kai has a good cooperation with Noon, but also found a suitable way for his own play, currently filming "Big River 2", and "Lonely City Closed" is still the resource of Noon, just because he was still a supporting role four years ago, and now it is completely a counterattack and rising period, and no one will urge him to transform at all.
Another highlight is the supporting role of Song Yi, who has basically no sense of existence in the drama starring in the past four years, and continues to be eye-catching as a supporting role.
Recently, fan Ruoruo, who played the male protagonist's sister in "Qing Yu Nian", each praised her excellent acting skills and cuteness, and then talked about the white moonlight Manli sister, which is much better than the disappearing heroine.
Along the way, it will even be uneven for Hu Ge, anxious and insomnia for the role, but as he himself said, "When you have to climb to the top of another higher peak, you can't fly directly over, you can only climb to the top of this mountain first, and then you can climb to the top of that higher mountain." ""The Station" is a beginning, I hope Hu Ge can stick to it!
