National Day file has finally gradually cooled down with the passage of time.
As of now, the movie "My Motherland and Me" has been screened for 13 days with a box office of 2.485 billion yuan, continuing to lead the October theater schedule, while the movie "Captain China" has a box office of 2.296 billion yuan for 13 days. The strongest dark horse in the October file keeps following the top "My Motherland and Me". The
movie "The Climber" scored 925 million yuan at the box office in 13 days, ranking fourth in the single-day box office. At the single-day box office, it was Louis Koo's new film "Crime Scene" that was released on October 12 that surpassed it.
Gu Tianle’s new film arrangement, compared with the previous film arrangement works, this time arrangement is not ideal. It is only 20.2%, which is lower than the 24.4% arrangement of "Me and My Motherland", "Captain of China" 31.6% of rows of films. To a large extent, the low-ranking movies in theaters caused the box office of Gu Tianle's new film to be unsatisfactory on the first day. The first day of release was less than 50 million. It became Gu Tianle's least-selling movie this year, setting a new low record for Gu Tianle.
This time Louis Koo's "New Crimes" has a good story.
Compared with Koo's previous works this year, "Crime Scene" this time obviously has a better story and production than previous films, and the overall production has been improved. In addition to the regular gun battles and passions of Hong Kong movies, the suspense and constant reversal of the whole film constantly attracts the attention and attention of the audience. The film has a strong sense of substitution, and the frame of the film is similar to last year’s National Day file. The reversal plot of Wushuang. (The following content involves minor spoilers, please watch as appropriate)
The old problem of Hong Kong movies: almost
After the continuous reversal of the whole film, the so-called murderer is just 4 people who committed the crime, but in the whole show these 4 The murderer's motive is not clear, the villain's protagonist has too much aura, is compassionate, and is a caring warm man. Although the audience can understand that the director is trying to set a good role for the villain, the contradiction in the final character's inner change is not portrayed. The reason why the villain of the
film should cooperate to create a case is not clear. Originally, we can directly bring to justice by looking for clues on the right track, but we have to add dramatic conflicts to complete several escapes. Some clues were enough to find the murderer, and even the audience had guessed who the murderer was, but the decent protagonist still had no clue. Zhang Jicong of the
police force has some contradictions. When the female police officer asked Zhang Jicong if she wanted to hide these jewels for a second, Zhang Jicong replied: more than one second. Although we are very clear that greed is more or less existent for everyone, but how Zhang Jicong changed from an idol of the police force to a cat owner in debt, there is no explanation on this point, if the promotion of the story is not unimportant If it is, there is no need to edit this line.
In the whole film, its clues and story lines are not clear. Although there are multiple reversals in the second half, they are not caught in the end. When the director put the key to the reversal on the witness "parrot" from the beginning, the audience had already guessed who the murderer was. At this time, all the blindfolds set by the director were meaningless, but the director continued to tell The story.
originally thought that Louis Koo’s constantly flickering illusion might be able to split out another personality, which would revert the movie again, but in fact it proved to be a little too worrying. The director did not give much explanation on this point. Nor did it give the film a practical turning point.
So on the whole, Louis Koo’s new film is still the same as before. The starting point is high but the fall is miserable. The first half of the story is very exciting, but a lot of problems appeared in the back. Of course, the film did not disappoint in the soundtrack and the wonderful fighting scenes, but the imperfect design of the "suspense" made the film's viewing experience a bit discounted.
However, for most of the audience, Louis Koo’s new film is already above the pass line, and it is definitely worth watching. The movie's box office is not high, perhaps more of the reason is the low-ranking film, the story is still considered pass.
is two months away from the end of 2019, but there are still new films to be released by Louis Koo in these two months. It depends on whether it will bring new surprises and expectations to the audience.
