Theaters resumed work, and after a number of "rescue blockbusters" appeared one after another, we waited for the first comedy movie of 2020, "My Girlfriend is a Robot", and officially met with the audience in the cinema today.
Somewhat unexpectedly, under the influence of "Creed" and "Mulan", this small-budget comedy became a box office dark horse and gained a fairly good audience reputation.
After watching it, some viewers sincerely sighed that "I haven't been so happy for a long time"↓
There are also viewers who have already doubled the booking after watching it
Some viewers also said that the film has laughter and tears, the first half is full of laughter, the second half is touching and deep, and the mood changes with the plot of the film ↓
"Watch crying" is the key word in the first audience film reviews, which also makes people wonder about the film, what kind of comedy can make the audience laugh and cry?
The film is a remake of the 2008 film of the same name directed by Guo Zairong and starring Haruka Ayase and Keisuke Oide. In the Chinese version, cp is formed by Bao Bell and Xin Zhilei.
Perhaps at first glance, the appearance of these two is quite different: one is cute, one is beautiful, how to build?
But as the film unfolds, a wonderful chemistry develops between the two. Fang Yuan is a 30-year-old young man who has achieved nothing, he can't pay the rent and is afraid of being late for work, like a young man working in a big city; Xin Zhilei restores the robot's behavior mode through a mechanical and delicate performance, which is in perfect contrast with her beautiful face.
There is also a special appearance of Wei Xiang in the film, I believe everyone is very familiar with this happy twist actor.
His own comedic style contributes to the film's laughter, and what impresses people is his classic laughter in the film, like a voice changer, which is simply a "scream" performance artist.
After laughing, there are also touching.
The cute Fang Yuan in the film and the strange Chuyi from the beginning of the incompatible, to the process of getting along with each other to grind into growth, and then into each other's life, the body gradually has each other's shadow, the film through the "robot and human love" such an extreme setting, in fact, reflects the current young people in love from strange to familiar real appearance.
Not only is there love, but the expression of family affection and friendship in the film is also particularly touching.
In order to fulfill Fang Yuan's wishes, Chu Yi took Fang Yuan back to his hometown through time and space, and also brought back the audience off the big screen to the long-lost childhood time.
When the bgm of "can you not be an adult, give a piece of sugar to be happy" sounds, every stubborn adult will soften his heart.
Moreover, although the film is a remake, it is not copied as it is, but has been localized in great detail.
The sense of "Bashi" of life almost overflows the screen, and the design of the homecoming plot is also full of Local Chinese characteristics, and the street scenes in Fang Yuan's childhood make people feel warm.
This sense of connection and warmth is an important reason for the audience to empathize.
Compared with the other two hollywood blockbusters released at the same time, "My Girlfriend is a Robot" is undoubtedly a small-budget work. However, whether the film can touch people's hearts should sometimes not be measured by the capital invested in production, which has a tag such as "small cost boutique".
"Creed" has Nolan's consistent time and space play skills and amazing imagination, but can not make up for the lack of emotional core, "Mulan" is a world-renowned Disney production, but after the release of the film was evaluated as empty of the traditional Chinese "loyal and courageous" shell, but lack of emotional expression that can actually be supported.
These are enough to show that whether there is affection or not, whether it is intentional, is the key to impressing the audience, and "My Girlfriend is a Robot" may be such a movie, so it has the ability to make the audience laugh brightly and cry freely.
It's been nine months, and we're finally waiting in theaters for such a heartfelt comedy. If you also want to harvest the courage to be touched and find love while laughing, you may wish to go to the cinema on the weekend to test the success of this small-cost comedy.
