In recent years, more and more domestic films have achieved high box office.
This is a manifestation of the quality improvement of domestic films themselves, and it also proves that audiences are increasingly recognizing domestic films.
Not only is the quality becoming more and more outstanding, but the types of domestic films are also becoming more and more abundant.
The alternative of "New God List: Nezha Reborn", the youth of "Five Splashing Teenagers", the suspense of "Soul Hunting", and the sigh of time and yin in "My Father and Me" have all left a deep impression on the audience.
However, the way forward for domestic films continues.
So next, what domestic movies are worth looking forward to?
Director: Zhang Yimou, Zhang Mo Writer: Chen Yu Starring: Chen Yongsheng, Zhang Yu, Zhang Yi Genre: History, War
In recent years, the most prolific famous director is none other than Zhang Yimou, and the hottest film theme in recent years is none other than the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, so when Zhang Yimou goes to shoot the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, what kind of domestic film will it be?
Unlike films on the theme of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, such as "King Kong Chuan" and "Chosin Lake", which focus on the heroic deeds of the Chinese Volunteer Army Sniper Squad.
"Sniper", also known as "The Coldest Gun", "The Coldest" can be described as a pun, referring to both the cold and harsh combat environment and the treatment of the enemy, and the heroes are merciless.
Set against the background of the "cold guns and cold guns" movement in the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, the film shows the heroic story of the heroic victory of the volunteer soldiers on the Korean battlefield and the dedication of the song and tears through a deadly duel between the Sniper Squad of the Chinese Volunteer Army and the elite sniper team of the US Army.
Different from director Chen Kaige's idealism of winning with emotion, director Lin Chaoxian's ultimate grasp of the film visual effects industry, and director Xu Ke's courageous romanticism, director Zhang Yimou can be described as a combination of the three, he is both idealistic and romantic, and has a very mature grasp of visual effects, while also having a little more restraint and calmness.
Therefore, director Zhang Yimou is indeed the most suitable director to shoot this story.
Director: Gao Qunshu Screenwriter: Uma, a little girl Starring: Zhang Yi, Lang Yueting, Huang Zhizhong Genre: Drama, suspense
Just as Liu Cixin is a name that Chinese science fiction cannot avoid, Mai Jia is also a name that Chinese spy war stories cannot ignore.
In 2009, Zhou Xun, Li Bingbing, Zhang Hanyu starred in the most domestic spy war film "The Sound of the Wind", which was written by the Mai family, and now, the Mai family has cooperated with Gao Qunshu, one of the directors of "The Sound of the Wind", to film his other spy war masterpiece "The Tip of the Knife".
Like Jin Yucheng's "Blossoms", "The Tip of the Knife" is a two-shot, and the episodic version is also starring Zhang Yi, but the director is no longer Gao Qunshu, but Yang Dong, who has directed Zhang Yi's other drama "Rebirth".
"The Tip of the Knife" from the script to the director, and then to the actors, give it the potential to become the best domestic spy film after "The Sound of the Wind".
The original story of the film is from the Mai family of the Chinese spy novel Saint Hand, and the script base need not be said.
Director Gao Qunshu, although his status in the industry is not as good as Zhang Yimou, Chen Kaige, Feng Xiaogang and other famous directors, but his attitude of conscientiously shooting movies has made him hand over to the audience many beautiful works such as "Tokyo Trial", "The Sound of the Wind", "Detective Hunter Zhang" and so on.
Lead actor Zhang Yi can be called the most textured and audience-oriented male actor in recent years.
Even in war films such as "King Kong Chuan", which is extremely compressed due to narrative dominance and extremely compressed performance space, Zhang Yi can still provide unforgettable acting skills for the audience with a sense of faith in performance.
Mai Jia, Gao Qunshu, Zhang Yi, such a wang fried combination "meet", what kind of story will be "fried"?
In 1940, in Nanjing, all kinds of forces were intertwined, and ace agents with family feuds joined forces to fight the enemy in order to survive.
The heroes walked on the tip of the sword with the heart of death.
In addition, the scale of the original work has also attracted much attention, and whether the director of Gao Qunshu can present the ultimate charm of the original story itself has also become a concern for the audience.
After "The Sound of the Wind", watch "The Tip of the Knife", "The Tip of the Knife" can achieve the color of "The Sound of the Wind", and wait and see!
Director: Shao Yihui Screenwriter: Shao Yihui Starring: Xu Zheng, Ma Yili, Wu Yue Genre: Comedy, Romance
Xu Zheng has become a sign of Chinese comedy, unlike Shen Teng, Ma Li and other comedians, Xu Zheng's comedy often has a sad background.
The gap between the rich and the poor reflected in "People on the Road", and the leukemia patient's difficulty in medication portrayed in "I Am Not a Medicine God" (the first half of this film is an uncompromising comedy), all let Xu Zheng's comedy grasp the "tragic essence".
This "Love Myth", which will be released in this year's Lunar New Year file, is produced and starred by Xu Zheng.
From the shape of his gray hair in the film, and the fireworks of the environment, you can feel that all the romance in this love film will be rooted in the reality of time and life, and the so-called "myth" of the film is just an ideal built by another character (Lao Wu, Zhou Ye Mang) in addition to the role played by Xu Zheng.
Like most of Xu Zheng's comedies, "Love Myth" does not hesitate to show the audience the comedy section, and in the 30-second trailer, each sentence of dialogue contains a humor that is tired of life but loves life.
Judging from the trailer, Lao Bai, played by Xu Zheng, has multiple identities in the film, such as painter, cook, drummer, teacher, and the three-dimensional identity "gentleman" formed by the combination of these four identities.
So, how do gentlemen guess a woman's age?
Guess what.
However, in this matter, Lao Bai "flipped over", which formed the first laugh point of this film to the audience, although it is not advanced, it is also effective.
This trailer closely revolves around the "gentleman" to shake the baggage, thus also making the whole story reveal the tone in front of the audience -
Miss Li (played by Ma Yili), who is single and has a daughter, Bei Bei (played by Wu Yue), who is divorced and loves tango, and Gloria (played by Ni Hongjie), who has a rich and idle husband who is missing, all three women have intersected with Shanghai's uncle Lao Bai.
Lao Bai's friend Lao Wu talks funny, a lifetime of romance, how will his joining affect the fireworks life of several people in this modern city of Shanghai?
The director of this film, Shao Yihui, a post-90s girl, is also very interesting.
She graduated from the Literature Department of the Beijing Film Academy, and in 2019 published a "shocking" explosive article "What are the graduates of the Beijing Film Academy doing", which was funny and bitter, talking about the depressed employment environment of many film and television industry students, which resonated with many people in the industry.
If the director can bring this "bitter humor" into "Love Myth", I believe that this film will become the most surprising romantic comedy at the end of the year.
Director: Li Yu Screenwriters: Li Yu, Fang Li Starring: Ma Sichun, Wang Junkai, Fan Wei Genre: Drama, Crime
The corpse in the concrete enclosure – just this scene – is enough to arouse the audience's curiosity.
The story of "Broken Bridge" is based on this wedge.
In a certain city, the Zhongnan Bridge suddenly collapsed, and a pair of human bones appeared in the piers.
The deceased's daughter Wen Xiaoyu (Ma Sichun) traces the cause of her father's death, but the boy Meng Chao (Wang Junkai) offers to assist her.
In the process of working together to investigate the case, the two gradually discover that Wen Xiaoyu's adoptive father, Zhu Fangzheng (Fan Wei), has a shocking secret hidden behind him.
Although director Li Yu has achieved success in venice and Berlin film festivals, after all, he is a niche literary and art film director, and the two films that are most well known to the audience are "Apple" in 2007 and "Guanyin Mountain" in 2010, so this "Broken Bridge" is likely to be a film with light suspense and heavy literature.
However, the niche is like Si, and the number of people who want to see it in Douban has reached a staggering 85,000 people, ranking first in recent domestic films, far surpassing Zhang Hanyu and Fan Wei starring in the war blockbuster "Railway Hero", as well as Zhou Dongyu and Liu Haoran's much-watched suspense film "Flames on the Plain".
Come to think of it, the most important reason is wang Junkai, one of the main actors.
The audience's impression of Wang Junkai's identity as a film actor may still stay in Song Renzong, who played Zhang Yimou's fantasy blockbuster "The Great Wall" in 2016, and I don't know that Wang Junkai has shown new ambitions in the film field.
One of the manifestations is "learning drama with the emperor of the film".
Fan Wei in "Broken Bridge", as well as Wang Junkai's next film and Ge You in Gu Changwei's director "The Hedgehog", have all won the Best Actor Award at the top film festival and are well-deserved drama-level figures, and Wang Junkai is likely to complete some kind of acting transformation with them.
The second manifestation is that the image is abandoned.
From the 15-second trailer of "Broken Bridge" and some official stills, it can be seen that Wang Junkai's image in the film is dirty and decadent, and his long hair covers his face, even similar to Yi Yanqianxi in "Young You".
Of course, the focus of "Broken Bridge" on the actors is not on Wang Junkai.
Fan Wei, a national first-class actor, Zeng Meihuizi, the best actress of the Hong Kong Film Awards in China, and Liu Lin, played by Zhou Chunhong in "The Hidden Corner", are the expectations that can be brought to the audience by the performance level of "Broken Bridge".
Director: Qiu Litao Screenwriter: Qiu Litao Starring: Liu Qingyun, Gu Tianle, Aaron Kwok, Yang Caiyu Genre: Crime, Action
In recent years, Hong Kong film production has exploded, but it has also fallen into the bottleneck of actors and themes.
After entering the mainland film market, Hong Kong films did not dare to use newcomer actors who lacked appeal in order to ensure the acceptance of mainland audiences, so it was always Veteran actors such as Andy Lau, Gu Tianle, Zhang Jiahui, and Liu Qingyun who appeared on the screen.
Hong Kong film themes are deeply involved in crime, anti-corruption, anti-terrorism genres.
Based on this, Under the regulation of the mainland film market, Hong Kong films have formed several important series - "Anti-Corruption Storm", "Chasing Dragons", "Bomb Disposal Experts", "Cold War"... And, all of these series will launch the latest episodes.
The "Sweeping Drugs" series, launched in 2013 by the late director Chen Musheng, is one of the most high-quality series.
In "Sweeping Poison", the villain Eight-Faced Buddha asks Ma Haotian (Liu Qingyun) to choose one of his best friends Zhang Ziwei (Zhang Jiahui) and Su Jianqiu (Gu Tianle) to advance the crocodile pool, which has become one of the most classic problems in Hong Kong movies in the past decade.
In 2019, Qiu Litao's "Anti-Drug 2 Heaven and Earth Showdown" did not continue this heart-wrenching plot, but it also handed over a hard-core answer sheet in terms of brotherhood, action scenes, film rhythm and other aspects.
"Sweeping Drugs 3 Days and The Earth" is still directed by Qiu Litao, and the story is a typical Hong Kong crime film plot -
In the Golden Triangle at the junction of Thailand, Myanmar and Laos, the drug investigation department Ou Zhiyuan (played by Gu Tianle), the undercover Zhang Jianhang (played by Aaron Kwok), and the drug dealer Kang Su cha (played by Liu Qingyun) are in a triangle confrontation!
The moment the undercover identity is exposed, deeper doubts about identity follow.
It can be seen that in addition to maintaining the style of this series, "Sweeping Drugs 3 Days and The Earth" also has a bit of the flavor of "Acts", of course, "undercover" is a tireless plot element of Hong Kong crime films, and whether this time can be used to a new depth is also worth looking forward to!
In October, the film was officially announced, Gu Tianle, Aaron Kwok, Liu Qingyun three movie emperors are also quite confident in the quality of the film, although the film has been accidentally injured during the filming process, but in the end, "Sweeping Drugs 3 Days and The Earth" still smoothly joined the hong Kong sequel blockbuster array!
Of course, there are far more than six domestic blockbusters worth looking forward to.
Aaron Kwok starred in "When the Wind Rises Again", Duan Yihong, Shi Pengyuan starred in "A Knife Heaven", Dapeng, Lin Jiadong, Zhang Songwen starred in "The Eighth Suspect", etc., are all seed players with the potential to become representative works of domestic films in the next one or two years.
Domestic films are getting better and better in terms of screenwriting, shooting, production and other aspects, I believe in the future, the quality is unlimited!
