Gu Tianle has always had a high status in the entertainment industry, and almost all the works he has appeared in are explosive. And recently, Gu Tianle once again brought us a surprise. Since the release of his new work "The Diary of Ming War", I thought it would counterattack at the box office and create a miracle, but now the box office results are very bleak, and the box office is only 2.57 in one week. 100 million, and the shooting cost will need at least 1.8 billion to make a return.
is also a new work released nationwide. "Hidden in the Dust" starring Haiqing is low-cost and high-reward. Why did " Tomorrow's War " lose so badly?
01
"Tomorrow's War" all the details are in place
The background of "Ming War Diary" is in the future world. It tells that under the crisis of extreme deterioration of the future environment, the fall of meteorites brings extremely lethal alien creatures. Let the earth become an internal and external trouble. In this film, the role played by Gu Tianle is the mecha warrior Tailai, and the whole film is full of a strong sense of technology.
These technological senses are mainly reflected in special effects scenes, such as mecha-type props, and the high-tech fighters driven by Gu Tianle are very advanced. As a sci-fi masterpiece, the setting of Mecha Samurai combines the best action scenes in Hong Kong, such as the appearance of fists and sparks in close combat, making the audience addicted.
You must know that in terms of special effects, this work is a real investment. The filming level of this film is no different from that of "Avatar" back then. In terms of CG effects and scenes, it can be regarded as a top Chinese work. As the world will not fall, the special effects are extremely dazzling, such as strange-shaped mecha animals, as well as the flight trajectory of the giant whale rotorcraft, etc. The special effects are smooth and the effect is realistic. This work also fulfills Gu Tianle's mecha dream. .
After the movie was released, many netizens left messages saying: "The awesome Glass is really in place, I support this work very much." "The special effects are very good, cool and realistic very good." "I can watch it. Gu Tianle performed attentively, but unfortunately the effect is not ideal." "I don't like sci-fi films, and I don't even understand the plot." ?
Although the investment cost of "Tomorrow's War" is very high and the details are in place, the box office performance was very dismal after its release, and even the investment cost could not be recovered. It is also a new work released recently. "Hidden in the Dust" is just a literary film. The investment cost is very low, but it has created a box office miracle. Why is the gap between the two so big?
From the perspective of themes, these two films are completely different types, one is based on science fiction, and the other is based on realism as the theme of literary films. As a sci-fi film, "Tomorrow's War" pays too much attention to special effects, but ignores the plot. If a sci-fi masterpiece relies solely on special effects as its selling point, it is bound to lose miserably.
In this work, there are not many plots that can resonate, the story is bland and boring, that is to say, after reading the beginning, we can guess what the ending is like, you must know that this is a sci-fi blockbuster The soft and tasteless, straightforward narrative, and the lack of exciting plot makes people feel that there is no heart, and it is estimated that this is also something that the audience cannot accept.
But the literary film "Hidden in the Dust" is different. Although its story is a true portrayal of the northwest countryside, it is very down-to-earth, allowing the world to see the other side of farmers, playing emotional edge balls, and earning the audience's tears. Such a low-cost work is easy to resonate, and its box-office performance can be described as a blockbuster in the end.
It can be seen that a good work, whether it is a sci-fi film or a literary film, is the most importantThe most important thing is the storyline of the script, because the plot can catch people's hearts the most.
