By July 25th, Andy Lau and Louis Koo co-starred in the film "Sweeping Drugs 2" now at a box office of over 1.2 billion, and it is about to break the highest record of a Hong Kong film. This is the highest box office of a movie starring Andy Lau. The success of this movie makes people have such a question: Is the glorious era of Hong Kong-produced movies finally coming?
Actually, it seems that we cannot just analyze this question from one aspect. Most of the Hong Kong film fans actually come into contact with Hong Kong films from the most glorious time of Hong Kong films and like SIPG films. In the 1980s and 1990s of the last century, any movie that Andy Lau starred in, investors would get a lot of benefits. "Anti-Drug 2" is undoubtedly an excellent movie, but there are many reasons for the box office explosion. This is related to the movies released at the same time, and it is related to Andy Lau and Louis Koo. It is related to modern society. As entertainment related, there is no reason why Hong Kong movies are about to reappear brilliantly.
Whether Hong Kong movies can return to their peaks is not just a matter of just watching the results of a movie. There are too many decisive factors for the completion and success of a movie. In the Hong Kong film circle, everyone had the same goal. They hoped to make a good movie. The actors hoped to get awards. Everyone has the same goal. If you go anywhere, you will get good results, and you will have the Hong Kong film era at that time.
is just so many years later, the glory of Hong Kong movies is really only once, and it is basically impossible to reproduce. Why do you say that? In the Hong Kong entertainment industry, there were many stars and talents. No matter what kind of talent was needed, there were very good pioneers. No matter what the theme of the movie, everyone can have a trusted director. The top one is excellent. However, the Hong Kong entertainment industry has basically become a nursing home. The names that can be called now and who still insist on filming are still those old celebrities who have almost lost the vacancies. Who can fill the vacancies for almost decades? ?
In the editor's opinion, today's mainland movies are the inheritance of previous Hong Kong movies. Hong Kong has returned after all. After so many years, there are Hong Kong entertainment circles, mainland entertainment circles, all Chinese entertainment circles, and Chinese movies! In the Mainland, there is gradually becoming a group of directors, new actors and actresses, and good movies are only a matter of time!
Do you think the editor's view is correct?
