Everyone wants to please, but everything fails. "If You Are the One 3" is too embarrassing.
The love of the elderly, the color scheme of the young, and the feelings of the middle-aged, "If You Are the One 3" is a complete contradiction.
In recent years, many viewers have commented that Feng Xiaogang's movies are outdated, and their stories and aesthetics cannot keep up with the times.
Unconvinced, Director Feng invited Ge You and Shu Qi to cook a plate of twice-cooked pork with his old friends Li Chengru, popular celebrity Yu Shuxin and popular Wang Yue Yunpeng.
The sequel to the old IP, full of emotions, but the taste is hard to describe.
ranked last at the box office during the New Year's Eve, not as good as Andy Lau, lost to Dapeng, and even far behind "Twinkle Twinkle Star".
did not do well at the box office, and the reputation was also poor. There were endless reviews that could not stand it. What is even more embarrassing is that many people bluntly said that they had no interest in going to the theater.
Greasy old people fall in love, and young people reject the disdain of middle-aged people.
Ge You, who is in his 60s, and Shu Qi, who is 47, have been in love for more than ten years. In the eyes of young viewers, such a plot is just greasy and pretentious, and it is harmful to young people. The audience is unattractive, even with the addition of the popular intelligent person elements. Before the release of the
movie, the promotion used "a true love that has been waiting for 10 years", which is obviously contrary to today's view of love.
In this ever-changing era, young audiences no longer like "bitter love", "wishful thinking" and "unilateral unlimited dedication" in terms of aesthetics and love.
"Greasy old man's love", the young audience's evaluation can be said to be spot-on.
The feelings that Director Feng relies on are aimed at the old viewers of "If You Are the One" who are now middle-aged.
is still Ge style humor, still the goddess Shu Qi, but who among middle-aged people would expect such a waning love?
It has been 10 years since Xiaoxiao left. Qin Fen has a lover, Xiaoxiao comes back, and Qin Fen faces a choice between two.
For this kind of love, middle-aged people not only disbelieve but also disdain it. To watch pure love, it is better to watch "Twinkle, Twinkle, Shining Star".
"If You Are the One 1", even if I read it out now, I am still satisfied with it.
Although "If You Are the One 2" is not satisfactory, it can be watched to pass the time.
"If You Are the One 3" was disliked by young people and disliked by middle-aged people. Even though Director Feng added a lot of modern elements in order to keep pace with the times, the film was made to look completely different and awkward at every turn.
The acting skills are online, black humor, inconsistent colors, box office dismal
"If You Are the One 3" all the familiar faces, Ge You and Shu Qi team up again, Yao Chen and Guan Xiaotong help out, Li Chengru and Yue Yunpeng's sentences are funny, the acting skills of the veteran actors are online, the eye contact is quite good tacit agreement.
There is a highlight scene in the film. Qin Fen misses Li Xiangshan and bursts into tears when he mentions the past.
"For a long time, until now I have not dared to listen to the plop of others diving..."
In that scene, Ge You's hand holding the wine glass kept shaking, but his crying scene made people unable to relate to it. His crying always had a touch of humor.
Shu Qi's acting skills are relaxed and comfortable. Even if she switches back and forth between real people and AI, the audience does not feel confused.
Yue Yunpeng's lines seemed calm, and his familiar tone and tone instantly made the audience laugh.
Feng's comedies always wrap the core of tragedy with a comedy coat, and "If You Are the One 3" is no exception.
html It has been 013 years, and Qin Fen has never come out of the scene where he took Li Xiangshan out to sea and watched him jump with his own eyes. He cried heartbrokenly.The camera turned around, and Xiangshan had taken root in the flower pot. His relatives watered him, and recalled that he didn't like drinking water the most during his lifetime.
Between crying and laughing, Feng Xiaogang has always mastered life and death, and black humor.
The color scheme of the entire movie "If You Are the One 3" adopts the popular macaron color scheme. The pink and jumping style of
is not in harmony with Qin Fenxiaoxiao's experience and atmosphere, giving people a sense of "an old cucumber painted green".
The biggest feeling that "If You Are the One 3" gives the audience is that it is inconsistent, like a hodgepodge, because it is difficult for everyone to put in the ingredients and seasonings. As a result, everyone finds it difficult to swallow.
As expected, "If You Are the One 3" was a hit at the box office and word-of-mouth, and Feng Xiaogang suffered a setback.
When "If You Are the One" was released in 2008, the box office exceeded 260 million, second only to "Red Cliff", and it won the annual box office runner-up that year.
In 2010, "If You Are the One 2" had a box office of 471 million, ranking among the top four in the year's box office. That year, Feng Xiaogang's "Tangshan Earthquake" also had a box office of over 648 million, ranking third in the year's box office.
Those years were Feng Xiaogang's glorious era. He was known as the king of New Year films and the king of box office. The "If You Are the One" series was also his golden signature.
In "If You Are the One 3", things have changed.
"This movie is like having another ups and downs of love with all the viewers. We were hooked and our interest was waning."
When Zhang Yi made this comment on "If You Are the One 3", many people ridiculed him for being uneducated. Now it seems , his comments are most spot on and to the point.
The dismal performance of "If You Are the One 3" seems to confirm that the era of Feng Xiaogang and Ge You is slowly coming to an end.
There are no permanent celebrities, only floating celebrities.
Feng Xiaogang has passed the era of attracting audiences into theaters as long as his name is on it.
His box office appeal has dropped a lot. He is also somewhat disconnected from the audience and cannot figure out what the audience likes.
"If You Are the One 3" was positioned as a "emotional film" by the market. However, the plot and style could not attract the audiences of the year, let alone young audiences.
Feng Xiaogang and Ge You were once the golden signatures of New Year films. Like Zhao Benshan's sketches, they are one of the audiences' New Year expectations.
Nowadays, Feng's comedy is gradually "going downhill", and "If You Are the One 3" has almost reached the bottom position. Has he really "exhausted his talent"?
To be fair, although many talented new directors have emerged in today's film market and have achieved great success at the box office, none has yet reached the influence that Feng Xiaogang once had.
However, later on he became a little arrogant and stubbornly stayed in his comfort zone. He even accused the audience of being "rubbish" and failed to keep up with the times, and also lost a lot of popularity with the audience.
The success of "If You Are the One 3" is not unexpected. Feng's comedy did not adapt to the changes in the market. Ge You and Shu Qi cannot escape the ravages of time. If they fall in love again, they will only get a sigh.
The rolling waters of the Yangtze River pass eastward, and the waves wash away the heroes. Right and wrong, success or failure turn around in vain. Aoyama is still there, How Many Suns.
Not only Feng Xiaogang and Ge You, no matter how powerful people are, they cannot withstand the passage of time and the changes of the times.
cannot keep pace with the times and may be ruthlessly abandoned at any time.
You finish singing and I will appear on stage, Feng Xiaogang and Ge You, their era is finally slowly drawing to a close.
