Unexpectedly, even the "National Master" Zhang Yimou and the billion-dollar box office actor Shen Teng have to be defeated appear!
Jia Ling is an unprecedented female director in Chinese film history. Her first film "Hello, Li Huanying" earned a box office of 5.4 billion. Not to be outdone,
's second new work "Hot and Spicy" has so far accumulated box office exceeding 2.1 billion, and the total box office is predicted to reach 4.1 billion, but in my opinion, exceeding the 5 billion box office mark is not a problem.
In this Spring Festival season, Jia Ling’s new work is undoubtedly the biggest winner. Even Douban’s word-of-mouth score is as high as 8 points. It can be said that it is both well-received and well-received, and it has truly convinced the audience.
The advantage of the plot is undoubted. Although it is not an original script, the audience can see the female director's delicate control of the subject matter and core. Le Ying has the shadow of Jia Ling in her body, so is it not you and me who are confused in front of the screen?
Of course, the cast is also quite large. Jia Ling’s reputation is really impressive. With so many well-known actors joining the cast, it is natural to distinguish between high and low acting skills.
After watching the movie, I immediately made a ranking list of acting skills in my mind to see who can win the first prize in one fell swoop?
No. 7 - Yang Zi
To be honest, I had high expectations for Yang Zi at the beginning. After all, she is considered one of the best actors in the 90s.
But it turns out that there are still barriers between the big screen and TV series.
Doudou, played by Yang Zi, is a villain whose appearance is completely inconsistent with his heart. In order to gain Du Leying's sympathy, he deliberately pretended to be pitiful and embarrassed by the people on stage.
A role like this little white flower is undoubtedly in Yang Zi's comfort zone, and her acting skills are quite satisfactory. It seems that someone else can replace her.
And the only thing that failed was Yang Zi’s face. On the big screen, her face was abnormally swollen, and her apple muscles were too swollen, as if they were about to burst in the next second.
Moreover, her facial features are unremarkable, and her facial lines also make her look like an "Internet celebrity". There is a clear gap between her and a bony-faced beauty like Zhang Xiaofei, and she is even not as good-looking as Jia Ling, who has lost weight.
It seems that the TV drama track is more suitable for Yang Zi, and it is not unfair to be ranked at the bottom.
The sixth place - Li Xueqin
According to professional performance skills, Li Xueqin is actually not ranked in front of Yang Zi.
As a non-major, she never breaks through every time she performs. With her Northeastern dialect and cowardly expression, she always looks the same in every performance.
But who made her character have distinctive characteristics and a lot of material?
Li Xueqin plays Li Xueqin's best friend Lili, who hooks up with Le Ying's boyfriend. She is an ordinary-looking girl, but she deliberately pretends to be seductive, which makes people goosebumps, and at the same time she feels ridiculous and funny.
The most exciting thing is when Le Ying found out that Lily had betrayed her, the latter knelt down in a second, and her confession was so sincere that it made people unable to get angry even if they wanted to. It is one of the famous scenes in the movie.
can only say that Li Xueqin has played a role that is easy to shine.
No. 5 - Zhang Xiaofei
If I want to say that the actor whose performance is the most surprising in the entire film, it must be Zhang Xiaofei.
Maybe it’s because her popularity nourishes people. Ever since she became the Best Actress, Zhang Xiaofei has always had a sense of fashion, which makes it difficult for her performances to be grounded.
For example, the Du Ledan she plays in the new film, even if she is wearing a bright red short-sleeved shirt, still looks much more advanced than Jia Ling. It is obvious that the two of them are not born to the same mother.
Moreover, her character is divorced, cheated and has a baby, and there is no trace of being worn down by life. She looks younger than Yang Zi, which is too unconvincing.
It seems that Zhang Xiaofei is no longer suitable for development in comedy.
The fourth place - Sha Yi
has to be the most stable performer.
Sha Yi plays the role of a boxing gym owner in the movie this time. This role is very real. He looks at employees he doesn't like, glares at them, and speaks without mercy.
You can see the characteristics of a little person in him, he knows how to calculate and is selfish. He knows that Haokun has won, but still lets Pin Guan participate in the competition. It makes people's fists harden.
But he also has a kind side, he is willing to give Le Ying a chance to stand in the ring, and he will give her sincere persuasion while watching the opponent being beaten.
obviously doesn't have many roles, but Sha Yi's presence is like the finishing touch, giving this movie a strong sense of life. This is where its strength lies.
The third place - Ma Li
Professional matters should still be left to professionals.
As soon as Ma Li appeared, I couldn't sit still in front of the screen.
The female psychologist she plays has a great reputation but little ability. She takes out a few random fruits and dares to use them as test questions, pretending that she understands other people's inner feelings. I wonder how many people's shadows are involved in the performance?
A character full of irony like this is not easy to play.
is overacting and exaggerating.
's performance was boring and mediocre.
Only someone like Ma Li who is good at grasping the rhythm of comedy can hit it just right.
Especially watching her pretend to analyze people's expressions and pretentious body movements makes people laugh.
No. 2 - Jia Ling
Who after watching this movie regards Jia Ling as the "goddess" in their heart?
Some people say that she uses weight loss as a gimmick, but the theme of the film has never been weight loss.
In this movie I saw a woman's transformation.
Le Ying, played by Jia Ling in the early stage, deliberately gained weight to more than 200 kilograms. She was so fat that she had big shoulders and a round waist. The fat on her chin trembled when she spoke.
At the same time, Jia Ling also vividly interprets the inferiority complex and timid mentality of obese people.
This also made her lose a hundred pounds in the later period and become a qualified boxer, which is even more impactful.
Tears fell unknowingly the moment she watched Le Ying go from sweating profusely to lifting the barbell easily, and all kinds of animal flow fitness postures were no longer a problem.
This is the touch that Jia Ling brings to the audience. There is no need to forcefully sensationalize her comedy. Her comedy has reached a level that can resonate with women.
It's a pity that such a performance could not win the first place, not because Jia Ling's acting was too bad, but because the first place acting was too amazing.
No. 1 - Lei Jiayin
I thought Lei Jiayin's main role in this movie was to be "funny", but I didn't expect that he played the most complicated side of the man Hao Kun.
He had a breath in his heart and wanted to prove himself through the competition, but found that this breath was not worth mentioning in the face of reality.
So Hao Kun asked Le Ying what she would choose, but it turned out that the other party knew how to persist better than him.
When a man's self-esteem is offended, he becomes incompetent and furious, scolding away the woman who loves him deeply.
When we met again, he was not a boxer, he was disheveled. When he saw Le Ying, he turned around and ran away. His embarrassment was funny and poignant.
A man who was once full of ambitions was defeated by life and spent his whole life decadent, which makes people feel helpless and extremely real.
Under Lei Jiayin's interpretation, this character seems to really come alive, and every side has the appearance of many ordinary people.
And I also like the ending. Haokun saw the change in Le Ying and took the initiative to come forward and ask to have dinner together, but found that Le Ying in front of him had already found him, and there was no place for him beside him.
I am afraid that only Lei Jiayin can keep pace with Jia Ling and work together to bring out the essence of the movie.
Conclusion
The movie "Hot and Spicy" is the biggest dark horse during the Spring Festival.
No matter how effective the early publicity is, the current box office results cannot be faked. Jia Ling has used her strength to prove her possibility as a Chinese female director.
Of course, she is quite famous and has invited so many big movie stars to join her.
Lei Jiayin's ability to be the leading actor is definitely a stroke of genius and adds luster to the entire film.
The scenes played by Ma Li, Sha Yi and others are also exciting, and the presentation of the laughs is so awesome.
As for the popular little girl Yang Zi, she has just entered the film industry and has not yet established herself. Her acting skills and appearance have been criticized, but she still has a long way to go. I hope she can find the right state, and she must also understand that not everyone can do it in the film industry. Make a name for yourself.
However, "Hot and Spicy" is still in theaters right now, and its reputation may continue to improve in the future.
And I think everyone has their own standards for measuring an actor's performance. Who do you think has the best acting skills?
