If in the future world, there is a fake and real bionic person, who can restore the person you miss, what will you do?
This is the lingering question that many viewers have after watching "If You Are the One 3".
As a New Year's Eve comedy movie, Feng Xiaogang's purpose seems to be not just to make the audience laugh. When he comes out again after many years, Feng Xiaogang's "ambition" is to break the ceiling of domestic comedy.
To be honest, he did it. The
film was released on December 30. In an environment where word-of-mouth determines the box office, gave "If You Are the One 3" room for the box office to skyrocket.
Some people say that this is "the movie with the most laughs that I have watched recently."
Some people also said that "has laughter and tears! Exceeded expectations!"
But for me, it is the movie that best expresses my feelings after watching the movie. , or the comment of this audience: "There will never be such a movie in the future. Every time, it appears at just the right moment in life."
This time, Feng Xiaogang used a "comedy" to I cried.
The ultimate sincerity, watch Feng Xiaogangās long love confession 15 years later
The first "If You Are the One" was released 15 years ago in 2008. At that time, Qin Fen (played by Ge You), who was praised for his fair skin, was still on a blind date, looking for that one The other half of "Don't be too narrow-minded and don't be too young".
In the blink of an eye, 15 years have passed, and the time has come to 2031. What Qin Fen lacks even more is an old companion who can take care of his trivial daily life, quarrel and bicker, and occasionally be gentle.
Itās not that Qin Fen doesnāt have it, but itās the same as having it.
Xiaoxiao (played by Shu Qi) has found the direction of life. She picks up garbage all over the world and does environmental protection. It has turned into postcards sent back from all over the world. They are so thin and hard that you canāt feel the 37-degree body temperature in the palm of your hand. .
After all, it is difficult to understand the pain of lovesickness, so Qin Fen accepted the intelligent bionic robot presented by his friend Lao Fan (played by Fan Wei) - with a smiling face, reproduced one by one.
But Wan Wan class Qing.
Qin Fen has not seen Xiaoxiao for ten years. He is about to turn 70 and is still an "empty nester".
On the surface, Qin Fen is living a good life alone and can still talk and laugh, but the traces of his life cannot lie.
It is difficult to live an interesting life alone, but Qin Fen seems to be used to it. After staying alone for a long time, he just tries to find ways to cater and please himself. The existence of the
ai intelligent robot is for this purpose. She serves Qin Fen. During the ten years since Xiaoxiao left, Qin Fen also achieved some inner self-consistency while staying in place.
But this self-consistent progress bar is always short of 1%. The remaining space is not only for smiling, but also for Qin Fen to figure out whether his relationship can still have a long-term "unthinking and unforgettable" relationship. Affection.
There are many details in the film that hint at these delicate emotional clues.
For example, the bird cage shown in the shot contains two parrots, and Qin Fen lives in the love nest he built for Xiaoxiao. Qin Fen is like a parrot in a cage, longing to be in pairs, but he is trapped. .
Xiaoxiao was the kite floating outside the nest. When he didn't come back, Qin Fen received a postcard in exchange for a kite. When he came back, he put the kite away.
Qin Fen said, "There is a thread and you can go home by pulling on it." He is that thread. When he returns with a smile, he doesn't need to pull on it anymore.
"If You Are the One 3" uses the love story of Qin Fen and Xiaoxiao to tell us that sincerity is a must-kill skill, and companionship is the longest confession of love.
Just like the "If You Are the One" series for 15 years, the final chapter of the film goes both ways with the audience.
Tears amidst laughter, bitterness and sweetness, Feng Xiaogang pays tribute to idealism
After watching "If You Are the One 3", I can still feel the timelessness of Feng's comedy. In the
film, the laughter brought by the characters is still direct.
Jianguo who grows into a "mahua", a bionic robot that gets goosebumps when listening to disgusting words, and "Cheng Ru" (played by Yue Yunpeng) who sneaks in to steal the master's job.
There are also sharp smiles brought by various metaphors. For example, people who tell the truth cannot hear the truth.
A character and a line can have the effect of extending a comedy movie.
But how can Feng's comedy make you just walk out of the theater with a smile?
laugh Xiaoxiao ran away for ten years, Qin Fen waited wholeheartedly, Xiaoxiao finally came back, and the old friends who had not seen each other for many years were reunited again.
It seemed complete and everyone was happy, but everything was like Qin Fen's dream, and they met in the dream My friends are still the same, and they still look so young with a smile. Only Qin Fen has aged visibly to the naked eye.
Perhaps the memory is fixed on ten years ago, and in these ten years, no one cares about Qin Fen on the isolated island?
See The person's nose felt sore. At this moment, every wrinkle on Ge You's face and the vicissitudes of smile in his eyes were as painful as a knife.
Outside the play, there were people like Qin Fen who were silently longing for each other.
Feng's comedy Success did not make Feng Xiaogang have the idea of āāāāeating for the rest of his life. He made realistic works such as "I am not Pan Jinlian" and also used the period drama "Youth" to present a feast of the times.
pursues innovation and change, and is more Like Feng Xiaogang's career structure.
But this time, he restarted the IP from 15 years ago. What did Feng Xiaogang want to say in "If You Are the One 3"?
In the second part, Li Xiangshan (played by Sun Honglei) told Xiaoxiao that marriage No matter what choice you make, you are wrong. A long-term marriage is about making mistakes.
It sounds like making do, and also like a helpless compromise, but 13 years later, Feng Xiaogang gave a more romantic and accurate answer.
Asking what is love in the world Things? Qin Fen said: Waste!
But he was still willing to be a "waste" for ten years.
Because Qin Fen had someone occupying his heart and could not fit in others, not even a robot.
Just like in the movie That classic line that interprets love: Missing is " Building a temple on a high mountain is too low, but sitting face to face I still miss you."
This also hints at Qin Fen's final choice.
There is no doubt that the ending of "If You Are the One 3" is romantic Yes, I guess this is also Director Feng's attitude towards love. It is best to stay together forever and have a beginning and an end like the movie.
This time, Feng Xiaogang seems to have remained unchanged, but in fact he has transformed. He is nostalgic, but he also tells a love story that pays tribute to idealism in the context of future science fiction.
Conclusion
The core of comedy is tragedy, and the core of tragedy is the source of life.
The modern background setting is not the only highlight of this film. All science fiction elements are based on real life and everyone's specific feelings.
After watching "If You Are the One 3", it was like listening to an old song. The starting rhythm was obviously cheerful, but while I smiled and sang along, I burst into tears for the feelings contained in the lyrics and music..
Because what I listen to is not a song, but a memory. What I watch is not a movie, but a life that I have personally experienced and resonated with.
At the end of the video, Qin Fen and Xiaoxiao bid farewell to the audience, and " will end with movies, and it will be us that will last forever" to remind everyone that this series is done.
However, the lasting feeling brought by the final chapter of "If You Are the One" reminds us that if you are the one, if you are sincere, then love bravely!
