At present, the three biggest and hottest movies at the box office are My Love, Secret Visitor and Above the Cliff, and there are great differences among them. The box office of the romantic film My Love 1.4 1 100 million on its first day of release has increased by 290 million so far, leading the May 1st file again, followed by the first spy film Above the Cliff directed by Zhang Yimou.
I have finished watching My Love and On the Cliff, but I haven't had a chance to watch The Secret Visitor because of time. So I also want to talk about my own experience of watching My Love and On the Cliff, and why there is such a big gap between them. But from the theme of the film, "My Love" and "Above the Cliff" are two completely different works, one is a short story of youth love, and the other is a spy war movie that burns the brain.
Let's start with my love experience. I think this movie is very general, but I have to recall our youth and first love when I watch it. Such memories are really happy, which is why many people will be moved after reading them.
However, the story is really unsatisfactory. This film tells the love story of Zhou Xiaoqi, an art specialty student, and You Yongci, a transfer student, for fifteen years. In the end, your wedding became my bar mitzvah. Originally, a tender love movie was turned into a "stew pot" by the film director. To put it bluntly, it is love at first sight, and I am willing to pay for it. Giving up her future for a better girl, that is, filming, and that emotional story will never happen in practice. Really feel unworthy for the hero.
There is also what happened during their fifteen years here, but it was a long time, but there was no feeling in the movie. Take a picture of two people and add a voice-over, and the next two years will pass. Then I will shoot a scene where I will meet girl No.1, leave my current girlfriend and gradually pursue my perfect first love. I feel a little "short circuit failure" and have a brotherly feeling.
The key is the emotional drama in the film. I feel that the film director wants to make the fans feel the same way, but I can't understand that the hero is a boy who is nothing but the heroine and falls in love. Few young people fall in love. "Men are not bad and women don't like it" still has some truth.
For the movie "Above the Cliff", I think it is a very, very good movie. This film is not only the first time for a Zhang Yimou film director to shoot a spy film, but more importantly, it is to remember these national heroes who gave up for a better country and people. No matter from the performance, narrative or plot, it is very good. It is not only a wonderful suspense reasoning of a spy film, but also an epic of a drama film. This is the first time I watched a spy movie, and I couldn't help crying. That kind of excitement can only be felt in the cinema, which is why the user evaluation of Above the Cliff is bursting.
From the present stage, the user evaluation of Above the Cliff has been very good, with a high score of 9. 1, but the movie box office has never been the first. Looking back, I love this movie. The user's evaluation is not good, the ridicule is constant, and there is no strong creative lineup. The key score is only 8.2, so it can actually rank first. This requires a lot of friends to understand. In fact, in addition to the storyline and shooting skills, my love used some tips in this movie.
Why can a simple movie like Hi Mom get 5.4 billion box office? Because Jia Ling shouted out the slogan of comedy films to tap the shortcomings in the audience's hearts, he was able to get two levels of user evaluation, both comedy films and emotional ones, which were very good.
There are some similarities between my wife's movie and Hi Mom. This is a love movie, but many of them remind fans of their fond memories when they were young, not only falling in love, but also many friendships on campus. Although it is very ordinary, the crowd suitable for this film is very ordinary, and anyone can watch it except children.
The key point is that the film My Love uses a lot of tricks. It can be said that the film director is very smart. He learned the story of the movie "Girls We Chased Together in Those Years", and used various encounters to promote the feelings of boys and girls. Is it a coincidence to watch movies?
In addition, the film director also invited Xu to play the leading role. After all, in 2020, Greg Han Hsu Xu won the best supporting actor candidate in the 55th Taiwan TV Golden Bell Award for his romantic film Goodbye. The key is to gain a large number of fans. Xu will undoubtedly be favored by a large number of fans when he participates in youth romance films again, and he can't help but admire the film director's vision, so this is a trick of favoring one over another.
There are not many successful youth romance films in recent years, but film director Tian Han can combine the advantages of the two in many ways. Although some of them are not combined, they still give fans a certain experience. Therefore, the film "My Love" is full of tricks, and the box office has exceeded 100 million in two days, even the strong composition like Zhang Yimou and Zhang Yi can't be surpassed. This is really surprising.
Looking back, the movie "Above the Cliff" that the audience has been optimistic about has retired to the second place. The point is that most of the two films are not compared. Zhang Yimou is the best film director, and Zhang Yimou has nothing to say. Yu Hewei also has inner popularity, and his performance is very practical. There are a series of powerful actors such as Amanda, Dahongni and Li Naiwen, but it's really a pity that he can't be the first in this main lineup. Maybe it is.
So far, the top three in the May 1st file have caused some surprises, and the most surprising thing is that the new film of My Love is too fierce. It's really incredible to dare to go against Zhang Yimou's works and lead the 1st gear with a winning attitude, but I personally think this may be a temporary situation. After all, Li Sicheng's "detective chinatown" and Hi, Mom are in the same situation in the case of New Year's Eve files, and the end users will laugh it off. Who do you think will be the final box office champion of the May Day movie "My Love" or "Above the Cliff"?
