National Day has entered its sixth day of domestic release, and the box office of the movie has reached nearly 1.9 billion. The seven stories in the film that record the growth and historical experience of the motherland have also become a hot topic among the masses.
In the seven stories, "Encounter" is directed by Zhang Yibai, starring Zhang Yi, Ren Suxi, Zhang Jiayi, Zhou Dongyu, Peng Yuchang and others. It mainly tells the story of the successful explosion of my country’s first atomic bomb and many unsung heroes who selflessly dedicated their youth. . However, this unit is generally regarded as the weakest link among the seven units. So, what are the weaknesses of this work that praises the unsung heroes who paid silently in the research process of my country's first atomic bomb?
is first of all the awkward acting skills of the heroine:
, as the heroine of the "Encounter" story, meets Zhang Yi on the bus, Ren Suxi has a long period of scenes and close-ups, as well as a large line of drama. But from her facial expressions to her lines, it is difficult for the audience to feel the emotional explosiveness that is suppressed in the bottom of their hearts after a lover who has not seen her for three years and suddenly meets. Ren Suxi's entire performance looked more like her reaction when she saw her boyfriend three days after her boyfriend disappeared. The immovable expression and the language without emotional tension throughout the whole process tell an unforgettable experience with the male lead so that the audience feels like a passerby telling a gossip story that has nothing to do with them. Compare
to the male proposition. Under the premise that the face is covered by a mask, rely on the amount of information and emotional appeal transmitted by the eyes. Classmate Ren Suxi, you performed with close-up shots and a lot of lines for several minutes, and you were killed by a glance that only showed your eyes. Are you embarrassed? After
got the news of the successful detonation of the atomic bomb, Zhang Yina was full of experience but revealed proud and calm eyes, showing with Ren Suxi's expression of persevering to the end. We can only say from the bottom of our hearts: Ren Suxi, the most embarrassing heroine, you deserve it.
is followed by a weak script. The story of
is translated from the male opinion during the research process, in order to protect the precious research results and equipment, in the case that the superior has ordered all to evacuate. Resolutely sacrificed himself to protect the equipment, and he was exposed to nuclear radiation. After that, I experienced a few shots of the male protagonist in the hospital bed, and then jumped again, directly to the scene where the hostess met on the bus. After a few minutes of awkward acting by the heroine,
got out of the car and took to the streets to participate in the celebration of the success of the atomic bomb. Coupled with the memories of the heroine decades later, the whole unit is over. With scripts like
, after watching this unit, the biggest feeling among the masses is that the story does not have a complete process of succession and separation, but only a few fragments of scenes. Although the director used a recurring book called "Song of Youth" in the beginning, the play, and the end, in an attempt to highlight the song of youth that a generation has silently dedicated to the country, this is the only highlight that runs through the entire play. Not enough to support the entire plot.
is the last questionable plot setting. The heroine of
just ended, with a breeze blowing outside the car (and many friends said it was the shock wave of a nuclear explosion). The people on the streets handed over a copy of the People’s Daily, which had successfully revealed the atomic bomb, and began to celebrate. At this time, the face of the hero and heroine revealed a happy and calm expression. When the audience saw this passage, it was logically incomprehensible. If that breeze was the shock wave of a nuclear explosion, how could it be possible that the successful People’s Daily had been sold ahead of time, and the people on the streets already had a copy. Is it that everyone is a fairy of the unpredictable prophet, calculated in advance, will the nuclear explosion succeed at this moment? If it's not a shock wave, just a normal smile, then is it a signal from God? The people had prepared newspapers in advance, and they waited for God's order to start celebrating.
The weak script, the awkward acting of the heroine, and the brutal plot setting. As a result, the unit "Encounter" lacks a complete story and sufficient artistic appeal, making it the weakest story in the entire movie. But the flaws are not concealed. The other stories in "My Motherland and Me" are still very exciting, and they are worth watching in the cinema.
