After all, what are the most anticipated movies in 2019? "Climber" is definitely on the list!
is a movie that has gathered many big names such as Wu Jing, Zhang Yi, Hu Ge, Jing Boran, etc. The cumulative number of people wanting to watch before the screening is close to 1.2 million. Although this number is far from the box office of billions of dollars at every turn, it is It represents the popularity of "The Climber" before it was released.
However, if you compare the cumulative number of people you want to watch before the screening with the movie box office data, it will inevitably be a bit bullying, and without data support, it will inevitably be said to be "unreliable", so we might as well compare different movies of the same type Put the data together for comparison.
(In order to ensure the objective and fair results, select the high-voicing or high-box office movie comparison)
According to the results of the data comparison, as of September 29, the number of people who want to watch "The Climber" before the screening far exceeds the top three mainland movies at the box office "Wolf Warriors 2", "Nezha's Demon Boy", and "Wandering Earth" are about a quarter of the "Avengers 4: Endgame", and the data of "Spider-Man: Far From Home" Relatively close.
This also means that the reputation of the cast of "The Climber" and the excellent production standards have already given a group of audiences "the desire to watch" in advance. However, the more expected value, the more box office forecasts, and the more I want to see the data before the screening, the more I worry about the quality of this movie. Can I bear so many expectations?
But luckily, after watching "The Climber" a few days in advance, I realized that this movie did not disappoint me. On the contrary, there are many surprises hidden in it! If
has to say there is any shortcoming, it is: too cold, cold enough to make people shiver.
So, if you are going to watch "The Climber", don't blame me for not reminding you: remember to wear more clothes!
is the top of the earth and also the icy and snowy Mount Everest. With a total height of 8,848 meters, it is the highest mountain in the world and the top of the earth. In Tibetan, Mount Everest means "the third goddess" and is also translated as "mother of the earth", but no matter what kind of translation it is, we can see the status of Mount Everest in the eyes of the world. This is a holy land that cannot be offended. .
And for such a mountain at such a high altitude, the top of the peak is covered with snow and ice all year round. Even if you look at the top of the mountain from the bottom of the mountain, you can still see the white snow.
However, although Mount Everest is very beautiful from a distance, it is another world in it. The lowest temperature at the top of the peak can reach -50℃, and there are strong winds of 8-12 for many years. According to the wind level, 12 Class-level winds can already destroy houses!
, let alone people?
So if you want to film the process of reaching the summit of such a majestic mountain in a movie, you can imagine how difficult it is!
Because the director not only has to show the beauty of looking at Mount Everest, but also the difficulty of climbing Everest. It is a challenge in itself to perfectly move the natural power of the top of the earth to the screen.
But gratifyingly, "The Climber" did it! In the
film, the director combines real-time shooting with visual special effects to show that while the "climber" faces life and death in the process of climbing, he also presents a series of beautiful paintings.
Among them, the actual shooting location is on the snow peak of Gangska. It is also on this mountain with an altitude of 5254 meters. "Climber" completed the shutdown ceremony with the highest altitude in the world. The difficult shooting environment made Wu Jingjing unable to help but lament that it was too cold, but the effect gained behind the huge effort was surprisingly good.
Judging from the filming tidbits, when the video is not modified by filters, the blue sky, snow and continuous mountains of Gangska Snow Peak all look so natural and magnificent!
borrowed a lyric from the theme song of the same name in "The Climber" to describe it, that is: Forever, I only see the snow! Real-time shooting of
is so beautiful, not to mention the pictures that have been modified by the ultimate visual effects?
is especially the lens looking at Mount Everest. The cloud-covered mountain peaks change rapidly with the weather, just like the goddess’ veil is blown by the wind, mysterious and very beautiful.
There are heavy winds and heavy snow before reaching the summit,Human beings are becoming smaller and smaller.
also has the most dangerous second step on Mount Everest, known as the "Ghost Gate", because it is an open road to climb, but one step back is a cliff. After
ascended to the second step, another world appeared in front of you.
and a list of small mountains after successfully climbing the summit.
These few shots about Mount Everest show the beauty, mystery, and danger as much as possible, so that the audience can appreciate the beauty of Mount Everest in the theater.
But the problem is that the magnificent picture, the wind and snow on the screen, and the bottomless abyss make people feel a little "cold" from the depths of the soul involuntarily. It's like when people face the vast and vast world, they always feel their own insignificance and humbleness from the soul. It is a kind of cold from the depths of the soul!
And this is the reason why I suggest to wear more clothes when watching movies, because more than half of the time in the whole film is "spend in the wind and snow", which shows the hardship of the filming team of The Climber.
Mountaineering adventure movies also have martial arts?
Yes, as an adventure movie based on mountaineering, "The Climber" also has martial arts!
If the film presents a beautiful picture of the ice and snow, bringing the coldness of the wind and snow, then the martial arts part of the film is the coldest and ruthless aspect of nature to humans, trying to destroy everything that initiates it. Challenger! The most impressive scene in the
film was when Fang Wuzhou, played by Wu Jing, led the team to charge for the first time. They also encountered the avalanche encountered when the old captain led the team to climb the mountain, but this time it was better than before. Fortunately, because Fang Wuzhou was tossing and turning on the slope, relying on a piece of rock to make the whole team survive.
And the description of such a lens is not enough to show its thrilling scene.
But in the film, many martial arts scenes can reflect the aesthetics of action!
For example, the canyon where Fang Wuzhou jumped to avoid an avalanche is very beautiful. In the design of
in martial arts, the director’s intentions can be seen everywhere. To borrow from Wu Jing's words: mountaineering is not about humans conquering nature, but nature accepting humans! Because there are too many people burying their bones on this road of climbing, and "Climber" also reflects the cruelty of climbing Everest through scenes of martial arts scenes.
"The Climber" box office is stable!
The special effects and martial arts of "The Climber" can have this kind of "cold" attribute effect, which is inseparable from producer Tsui Hark and director Li Rengang!
The former is a well-known master of visual effects. The "Di Renjie World" he has always created with his heart is very Chinese fantasy. The dragon king, water monster, bat, four heavenly kings and various spirits are all eye-catching.
However, although Tsui Hark’s visual special effects are good, but his previous style is too gorgeous, it is inevitable that people will worry that the special effects of "The Climber" will be played by him again, but fortunately this time Tsui Hark has something in the movie. Restrained, the visual effects of "The Climber" perfectly reproduce the simplicity and elegance of the ice and snow.
The latter Li Rengang’s action aesthetics is undoubtedly unique. He has directed the martial arts movie "Jin Yi Guard" and the action adventure movie "Tomb Notes". Among them, the action design of "Jin Yi Guard" is the most outstanding. The martial arts movies of celebrities have particularly exciting fighting scenes.
, who is good at designing action aesthetics, as the director of "The Climber", undoubtedly guaranteed the excitement of the martial arts part.
Therefore, "The Climber", which was produced by Tsui Hark and directed by Li Rengang, and as one of the three National Day gift films, has a stable box office! The strong combination of these two not only brings the audience the ultimate visual effects and smooth motion aesthetics, but also allows the audience to feel the cold and hardships on Mount Everest. So when you go to watch such a movie, you should not "keep warm". Only by working can you enjoy the ultimate visual feast, otherwise the beautiful special effects and thrilling martial arts in the movie will always make people worry and feel "cold."
