has shifted twice, finally met the audience on the occasion of the Mid-Autumn Festival . The combination of Ma Li + Wei Xiang made the audience dream back to " this killer is not too bad Calm ", the related box office has also soared, and it has the potential to win the box office champion of the Mid-Autumn Festival.
But compared with the dazzling box office of this film, the word-of-mouth after its release is obviously not as good as the two films "I Still Think You Are the Best" and "The End of the Sea is the Prairie " released in the same period. The film "Mom" also has the posture of coming from behind.
The reason why the reputation of the film "Hello, Brother" is not proportional to the box office is entirely because the actors are strong and the script is too stretched, so the audience is amused by the actors' hard-working performances. The chaotic plot made it speechless.
For example, although this movie tells the story of Xiao Wu, played by Chang Yuan and , after his father fell into a coma and fell into a coma, he accidentally traveled back to the time when his parents hadn't started dating, and became a "God Assist" story.
But if the logic line of the story is singled out, you will find that it is actually about a child from a single-parent family who accidentally traveled back to when his mother was young, so he tried every means to match his mother with the person she liked. In the end, in order to save The fate of my mother, I would rather not be born to exchange my mother's life, but it was changed and redeemed by mother's love.
When many viewers hear this logic line, their first reaction is that the main plot of "Hello, Brother" is exactly the same as the family film "Hello, Li Huanying " that created a box office miracle with tears in laughter, but in the end The effects presented are very different, and the biggest reason is that they are not "sincere" enough.
first talk about the biggest flaw in "Hello, Brother", that is, the protagonist's motive is not clear. The beginning of the story is that Old Wu has Alzheimer's disease, and he has a very bad relationship with Xiao Wu. When he can't remember anything, he will call his son "brother" for no reason. While looking for the passbook, I found my parents' wedding ring and my mother's diary, and so I traveled back to the night when my parents first met. When watching
, the audience will obviously find that the purpose and motivation of the protagonist is different every time he travels back to the past. Except for the first passive travel, the first time he actively traveled back to the past to match his parents, the second time seems to be purely In order to witness the birth of this ring, it was not until the third time that he took the initiative to travel through and told the audience that he wanted to save the fate of his mother's death due to dystocia.
has to complain here, the protagonist has lived for more than 30 years, but he has never known the cause of his mother's death, and Lao Wu also became strangers to his son in the next 30 years because of his wife's death in childbirth. Such contradictions can only be solved by "traversing", which is very suspended and not enough to convince the audience.
It is precisely because the motive is not clear that all the plots of the whole movie are incoherent. Whether it is the laughing point or the interaction and connection of the characters, it is like the effect of several sketches. It's funny, but when we get together, it feels like we're acting awkwardly. Among
, the most natural acting is Ma Li and Jia Bing and teacher. Ma Li played the "Big Six", an eighth-level welder in the workshop. She has a carefree personality, but she is careful and sincere. Although there are not many scenes, she is played very vividly by Ma Li.
and Mr. Jia Bing is a pure comedy character, from the character of "Homecoming" when he appeared on the stage, who was hard on Hong Kong and Taiwan businessmen, to the failure to win the factory, coercion and enticing money to smash people, and then being attacked Xiao Wu, played by Chang Yuan, used the time and space shuttle to beat up a mental disorder. It can be said that Jia Bing performed the character's "little man's ambition" to the fullest. He didn't make many appearances, but he was impressive every time.
In addition to the main supporting roles, "Hello, Brother" also created some very "stereotypical" characters, such as the pseudo-wen Qing Aunt Qin who likes Tagore very much dislikes the poor and loves the rich, and hopes no matter whatThe child in the wife's womb is the son's old Wu, etc. Some of the plots are very intellectual, especially the final point of mother's love must be reflected in the "preserving the big or the young" in the case of dystocia, which makes people doubt the screenwriter's IQ.
and the protagonist Xiao Wu played by Chang Yuan, apart from his unclear motives, also has a very vague personality. The back view of her mother playing basketball as she was young is also full of the self-movement and stare of male creators, making the audience feel uncomfortable.
In general, this "Hello, Brother" is, to a certain extent, like a "Hello, Li Huanying", but it lacks warmth and emotion, and has more self-righteousness and bad plots .
