Friends, although the Chinese New Year is still nearly a month away, the "Spring Festival" has already become lively. Several blockbuster movies have been officially announced, attracting the attention of many netizens.
For example, "Flying Life 2", "It's Hot", "Article 20", "Mr. Red Carpet" and so on. Each of these movies has its own highlights. Let's take a brief look at it together~
"Hot and Spicy"
Director: Jia Ling
Starring: Jia Ling, Lei Jiayin, Zhang Xiaofei
After three years, Jia Ling "returns" to the Spring Festival with her self-directed and self-acted movie!
Because it is Jia Ling's second directorial work, "Hot and Spicy" has its own traffic. Some people expect her to recreate the box office miracle of "Hello Li Huanying", and some netizens are waiting to see the joke.
Judging from the evaluation of the trailer, most of the voices are optimistic. There are two main reasons:
First, Jia Ling is really working hard on . For this movie , I lost 100 pounds , and I haven’t appeared in public for nearly a year, just to bring freshness to everyone;
(This is what Jia Ling looked like before she lost weight, and I look forward to the results after losing weight)
Second, sincerity is always a must-win. After the official announcement of 's "Hot and Spicy", Jia Ling published a long article to introduce the movie to everyone. Her words were so sincere that the eyes of those who watched it were a little moist.
It is worth noting that the film is adapted from the Japanese film "One Hundred Dollar Love". The original film has a score of 8.4 on Douban. The heroine is played by the well-known actor Sakura Ando, and has a certain audience base.
(Many people in China know Ando Sakura because of another blockbuster movie "Shoplifters")
However, the changes in "Hot and Spicy" should be quite big. Jia Ling said that "has nothing to do with weight loss, and is even related to boxing. It’s not big, it’s a movie about how kind people find themselves and learn to love themselves.”
In addition to Jia Ling, this movie also stars Lei Jiayin and Zhang Xiaofei. Lei plays a fitness coach, and Zhang is Jia's sister. Her performance in the trailer is not bad, and expectations are high.
(I really thought this back was Jia Ling at first, but I didn’t expect it was Zhang Xiaofei when I turned around)
"Flying Life 2"
Director: Han Han
Starring: Shen Teng, Fan Chengcheng, Yin Zheng
As a frequent visitor to the Spring Festival stalls, Shen Teng this year There is no absence, "Flying Life 2" is scheduled to be released on the first day of the Lunar New Year.
The movie "Flying Life 1" was released in 2019. The final box office was not bad, reaching 1.7 billion+, but the reputation was mediocre. Over 910,000 people rated it 6.9 on Douban.
Film and television works with high box office but average reputation have very limited bonuses for actors. Therefore, many people will ignore this one when taking stock of Shen Teng's movies. Unexpectedly, the director of this movie, Han Han, actually made a second one.
(This pose is very similar to a poster of "Flying Life 1")
Judging from the trailer released so far, the comedy + racing part is better than expected. The content of Shen Teng's coaching as a coach is in It became very popular online and made some viewers laugh.
In addition, the film studio also knows who is the guarantee of box office. Not only is Shen Teng himself on the first poster, but he also writes "100% Teng content" on the official Douyin account introduction.
Although Shen Teng's box office performance is good and his popularity is even better, the rate of bad movies in recent years is a bit high, and some movies use his name to "deceive" consumers, which is really a loss of reputation.
hopes that the quality of "Flying Life 2" will be stable and not let the audience down again. We have already looked forward to it, so don't let it down.
"Mr. Red Carpet"
Director: Ning Hao
Starring: Andy Lau, Shan Liwen
It is said that this is a movie about "creating a flying star" in the entertainment industry, and the trailer is also about crazy things, unspoken rules, inconsistency between face and heart, and celebrity personality. Wait, I feel like this is the type that melon-eating people will like.
Judging from the plot, it feels quite novel. After all, there are fewer and fewer film and television dramas related to the entertainment industry. Even if there are, they are mostly superficial. It is rare to put conflicts on the stage like this.
However, the movie has been withdrawn once as , which somewhat makes people worry about the quality.
In addition, although director Ning Hao is a big name in the industry, he seems to have not had any outstanding works released in recent years. He mentioned that he still worked on "Crazy Stone" and "Crazy Racing" many years ago.
Andy Lau's popularity is unquestionable, but his box office appeal needs to be questioned, because the recent results of "Stealth" and "Goldfinger" starring him have not met expectations, and both box office and reputation have suffered.
So, can the combination of "Ning Hao + Andy Lau" win back this time?
"Let's Shake the Sun Together"
Director: Han Yan
Starring: Peng Yuchang, Li Gengxi
In the busy Spring Festival, the movie "Let's Shake the Sun Together" has a somewhat strange style. The male and female protagonists of the
movie are Peng Yuchang and Li Gengxi respectively. They are the leading actors of their generation, but their box office appeal and traffic are somewhat inferior, so they rely heavily on the subject matter.
Judging from the introduction, The movie tells the story of two young people who are seriously ill but with very different personalities. Because of the agreement of "Relay for Life", they accidentally embark on a healing journey full of love and power.
It is reported that "Let's Shake the Sun Together" is adapted from the documentary article "The Most Utilitarian Marriage Deal, the Most Emotional Eternal Promise". This is also the final chapter of Han Yan's "Life Trilogy".
Whether it’s 2015’s “Get Out! "Tumor King" and 2020's "Send You a Little Red Flower" have both achieved good results. Can they achieve greater success this time?
"Article 20"
Director: Zhang Yimou
Starring: Lei Jiayin, Ma Li, Zhao Liying, Gao Ye
The busiest person during the Spring Festival appears, he is - Lei Jiayin .
is not only the second installment of "Hot and Spicy", but also the male protagonist of "Article 20". Therefore, no matter which of these two movies becomes popular this Spring Festival, he will be the winner.
In addition to Lei Jiayin, the characters appearing in the trailer must be familiar to everyone, such as Ma Li, Zhao Liying, Gao Ye, Liu Yaowen, Wang Xiao, Chen Minghao, Pan Binlong, Zhang Yi, Fan Wei, Yu Hewei...
Not at all. Exaggeration, after watching the trailer, I only have one feeling in my mind: Are all the actors from popular film and television dramas in 2023 attracted by Zhang Yimou to play "Article 20"?
Among all the actors, Zhao Liying made a big breakthrough. She played the role of a deaf-mute mother. Although the trailer only lasted a few seconds, it left a deep impression on people.
Last year, "Man Jiang Hong" directed by Zhang Yimou won the Spring Festival championship. Let's make a bold guess. "Article 20", which is somewhat similar in terms of posters and lineup size, should not be wrong in its final box office results.
The competition for the Spring Festival schedule is fierce every year, and it is a battleground for many film producers. It seems that other movies will be officially announced in the near future, and the excitement will definitely be indispensable.
Finally, among the movies scheduled above, which one do you like the most?
