Recently, there seems to be a remake of remakes, "Manslaughter" and "Surging Crowds" are very successful, "Manslaughter" remade from the Indian god film "Manslaughter", which grossed 1.33 billion yuan, and "Crowded" remade from the classic Japanese movie "The Way to Steal the Key", with a box office revenue of 760 million yuan.
With the successful masterpieces of remake films, a trend has arisen, some are awkward remakes, some are brainless remakes, and more bad films are produced through remakes.
Bao Bell's movies especially like remakes, 2020's "My Girlfriend is a Robot" remade from the Japanese classic love movie, Douban only got 3.7 points, 2021's "Sunshine Sister Tao" remade from the Korean classic movie, Douban 4.5 points.
Recently, another remake movie has been launched, looking for a look is simply powerless to spit out, "real" remake, without too much processing and creation, directly "copy and paste", is a new film.
This movie is "Angry Scalper", remade from the Korean film of the same name, starring Wu Fan, Dong Xuan, Cui Zhijia, Gu Bin, Liang Chao, etc., once again interpreting the story of a tough guy who rescued his wife in a hurricane.
The Korean version of "Angry Scalper" is a work starring Ma Dongxi and Song Zhixiao, which is not an excellent movie, but can only be regarded as a decent action movie, with two major points of view: one is Ma Dongxi's fierce action scene, and the other is the beautiful Song Zhixiao.
The remake version of "Angry Scalper", directed by Guo Yulong, his directorial masterpiece is "Ghost Fist" with a score of 3.7, "Zhang Sanfeng's Last Fierce Soldier" with a score of 3.2, and "Di Renjie's Headless God General" with a score of 3.9 points, which is quite terrible, and this time a shot has achieved a brainless remake of a bad film.
The story is the same story, a car accident happened, the honest man Batu asked the driver to come down and take a look, but the driver just threw the money out to him, because in his car, kidnapped a woman, and there was a gangster in the car.
Batuu's wife also came over to scare the driver, and Kafang saw that she was a beautiful woman, and immediately got out of the car and punched and kicked the driver, and that was it.
Later, Kafang kidnapped Batu's wife, and was very arrogant to contact Batuu and let him go to a place, batuu went to find a bag of money and a mobile phone, the mobile phone rang, it was Kafang who spoke, saying that he gave him the bag of money and bought his wife, Batuu was furious, and then launched a rescue.
Why did "Angry Scalper" fail in its remake? There are three key reasons: one is not directly copied by the brain, simple and rude, the second is to make the 115-minute movie into 78 minutes, from the beginning to the end are going through the scene, the feeling of rushing to work, the atmosphere is poor, the third is that the image of all the characters has not stood up, the most failed is the villain, the pervert is played into mental retardation.
Broadcast on the network platform on August 6, as soon as it was launched, word of mouth and box office double pounced on the street, "Angry Scalper" had a Douban score of 4.6 points, and the network box office score of 6.67 million yuan in the six days of release, which was finally reduced to a street-throwing work, which is the end of the brainless remake.
