"The Gathering at Southern Station" starring Hu Ge was launched on December 6, Diao Yinan's distinctive personal style, forged a Hu Ge that fans have never seen or even dare to recognize.
Next door Tang Wei continues to partner with director Xue Xiaolu after the Seattle series. Together with Lei Jiayin, integrates the obsessive ex-boyfriend and ex-girlfriend into the larger pattern of the “whistleblower” system, reversing a little bit of routine and drama Weak, but there is no shortage of bright spots .
"Game of the Brave 2" arrives as scheduled, with the same popcorn style as the first one. "Interstellar Exploration", which was released one day earlier, has the same expedition factor but a completely different style. The former is a typical industrial assembly line with a fast pace. Product, the latter is full of loneliness of exploration.
As of press time (December 6th at 23:03), 's "Game of the Brave 2" with the lowest Douban score in the same period performed the best at the box office, followed by and "The Gathering at Southern Station".
"The Gathering at Southern Station"
The men and women under the lens of director Diao Yinan are almost in a state of "low appearance". Whether it is Wan Qian or Gui Lunmei, or Hu Ge and Liao Fan, they have lost their usual sophistication or handsomeness, They also have character textures that are very different from the actors themselves. The
movie restores the fierce fighting of car thieves in the Jianghan River Valley. Instead of focusing on the love and hatred between the wanted criminal and two women and men, Diao Yinan is more concerned with depicting the atmosphere of the times and the appearance of Jiangcheng.
Whether it’s the blood-red picture of Hu Ge’s life and death using an umbrella as a murder weapon, or the cruel scene of a small attendant riding a motorcycle and being "divided" under the bridge, "The Gathering at Southern Station" has not shy away from touching the bottom. Fierce and rough, depicts the pain of life and death in the form of struggle, and the reality of love and hate in the form of violence.
currently has a score of 7.7 on Douban, which is at the upper-middle level among domestic films.
has won more than 40 million box office, which is a very good big screen performance for Hu Ge.
However, for those who want to watch a popcorn movie, the style of this movie is a bit cruel and too real, and it is somewhat literary from the perspective of commercial films.
"Whistleblower"
"Whistleblower" starring Tang Wei and Lei Jiayin, currently has a Douban score of 6.5. The box office on the first day is temporarily under 10 million and the real-time data is 9.631 million. The degree of commercialization of
director Xue Xiaolu here is obviously stronger than that of the previous work, but her techniques seem to be far from familiar.
Tang Wei still plays the so-called "bad" woman, greedy for money, betrayal, and finally let go of obsessive selfishness in front of righteousness.
The greatest merit of this series of collaboration between Xue Xiaolu and Tang Wei may be to broaden the scope of discussion that the heroine must be "decency". She can be selfish, or even evil, and just turn her head back on the door without concealing the cowardice of human nature. The most remarkable shots in the
movie are perhaps Tang Wei and Qi Xi’s AI changing heads. The game is in the middle of the game, and the affair is very touching.
But overall, "The Whistleblower" is still quite unsatisfactory, and the current schedule and attendance rates are not very optimistic.
's best box office performance in the same period is still the popcorn blockbuster, the second part of "Game of the Brave" by Dashi Johnson and Miss Nebula.
"The Brave Game 2"
is different from the first high school kids who are ignorant of entering the game. In the second part, the male protagonist's grandfather and his old friend who is over sixty years old are substituted into the young talents. In the game.
The two old grandpas regained their youthful limbs, and even had wings that could fly, one for men, one for women, one for men and one for horses. The laughs between multiple contradictions are quite different from the previous work, and they also set a warm tone. .
However, in essence, "Game of the Brave 2" is still just a mediocre popcorn blockbuster. The opening is a bit verbose, and the story process is quite old-fashioned. The jokes and baggage are also lacking in new ideas. The scene seems to have shrunk faintly.
However, the single-day box office of this movie is about 9 times that of "Interstellar Exploration".
is also the best performer in the same period.
Is our movie consumer demand still mainly distributed in the field of "popcorn films"?
