The competition in this year's spring season is extremely fierce, and Jia Ling's " Hot Hot " has almost always dominated the list.
Movie fans’ curiosity about Jia Ling’s sudden weight loss of 100 pounds supported the movie’s box office performance.
But objectively speaking, the quality of "Hot and Spicy" itself is not high.
The plot content is not even as rich as "Hello, Li Huanying".
Even if the box office does not reflect the quality of the movie, it is not difficult to find it with the fermentation of word-of-mouth.
The box office performance of "Hot and Spicy" has gradually declined. "Article 20" and " Speeding Life 2", which were originally left behind by
, both showed better long-tail performance.
Unfortunately, the commercial film market also depends on timing, and the opportunity was lost.
"Article 20" cannot close the nearly 1.4 billion box office gap with "Hot and Spicy".
What is gratifying is that the current box office growth of the movie "Flying Life 2" is also quite rapid.
01
According to data, the box office of "Flying Life 2" has reached nearly 2.7 billion.
The gap between it and "Hot and Spicy" is gradually narrowing.
The key is that "Flying Life 2" does not have an advantage in the number of filming scenes.
However, its box office ratio has surpassed "Hot and Spicy" by two percentage points. It has good momentum and excellent reputation and reputation.
According to predictions, the final box office of "Flying Life 2" is expected to reach 3.3 billion.
But the predicted box office of "Hot and Spicy" is 3.6 billion.
As long as the status quo is maintained, "Flying Life 2" really has the possibility of competing with "Hot" for the box office crown.
In fact, people who have watched " Fast Life " are looking forward to the second part and are also worried at the same time.
"Flying Life" has a Douban score of only 6.8. It has good box office results, but the film quality is average.
As a director, Han Han is more famous than stable.
This is also the reason why "Flying Life 2" lost to "Hot and Spicy" at the early box office.
But it is obvious that "Flying Life 2", which has stabilized at 7.7 points, has conquered the audience with a quality that surpasses the first part. The relationships between the characters in the
movie are full and three-dimensional, the storyline is full of ups and downs, and it is full of tears and laughter.
At a time when most comedy movies are blending jokes, "Flying Life 2" has professional racing elements, as well as new jokes and new baggage that make movie fans laugh.
Now I recall the plot of the old man racing a car and Zhang Chi ( Shen Teng) testing Li Xiaohai (Fan Chengcheng) in various ways and being slapped in the face.
can call it the highlight of "Flying Life 2".
Moreover, every actor in "Flying Life 2" is bringing surprises to the audience.
While Shen Teng nailed the comedy rhythm, the crying scene once again shocked the audience.
's natural baggage and relaxed performance make movie fans unwilling to miss every second of his performance.
The character played by Zheng Kai has a kind of aloof indifference, so natural and so realistic.
As an actor who became a monk halfway, Fan Chengcheng's acting is unexpectedly natural.
His youthful feel also makes "Flying Life 2" full of passionate highlights.
In addition, Jia Bing, Yin Zheng, Wei Xiang, and Sun Yizhou all performed stably and completed the shaping of their characters well. It is not surprising that a movie like
, which has basically no shortcomings, would come from behind at the box office.
It is only a matter of time before "Flying Life 2" becomes a big success, but behind the success of this drama, there is another big twist.
02
Currently, Shen Teng’s personal cumulative box office is about to exceed 32.8 billion.
ranks second on the movie list. The gap between him and the first Wu Jing is only 700 million.
The key is that "Flying Life 2" is currently only 700 million away from the final box office predicted by the platform.
If nothing unexpected happens, Shen Teng will complete a big turnaround this Spring Festival. With a slight advantage,
surpassed Wu Jing and climbed to the top of the box office list.
Of course, Wu Jing still has many works to be broadcast. The release of "Wolf Warrior 3" or "The Wandering Earth 3" will widen the box office gap between him and Shen Teng in minutes. The time difference of
is not worth mentioning.
But don’t forget, Shen Teng is no longer the comedian who used to take the black humor route and crazy remake dramas.
From "Flying Life" to "Flying Life" to "Flying Life 2".
can even be seen in the comedy-oriented one-man show "Walking Alone on the Moon".
Shen Teng can no longer perform comedy well. As Wang Jing said, he doesn't want to make the audience laugh.
Zhang Da in "Man Jiang Hong" is loyal and courageous. Although he was as timid as a mouse in the early stage, he became heroic and dedicated in the later stage.
Zhang Chi in "Flying Life 2" seems to be a useless middle-aged man.
lacks the nonsense of Shen Teng's screen image in the past. Shen Teng collapsed and cried when he was hung upside down in the car.
's tears streaming down his face when he emphasized "I can't let go of my innocence" over and over again were surprising.
Dugu Yue in "Walking Alone on the Moon" starts out as a joking and trusting maintenance worker. In the later period of
, it is interpreting the romance of loneliness and the tenacious vitality of human beings in the face of the powerful nature since ancient times.
These changes in screen performance all emphasize one thing. Shen Teng no longer focuses on simple commercial comedies.
The characters he portrays are becoming more and more serious and profound.
As a big box office player, Shen Teng has almost become a cornucopia of theatrical movies.
But over the years, Shen Teng has almost zero success in terms of awards.
There is no trophy for him in the authoritative awards recognized by the industry.
In the past two years, he has gradually been nominated for the Golden Rooster Award and the Hundred Flowers Award.
Is his acting skills not as good as actors like Huang Bo, Wu Jing, and Huang Xiaoming who are holding the Best Actor Award?
is not, it was Shen Teng's previous comedy track that limited his performance.
Nowadays, Shen Teng has begun to play tragic roles. He plays father, middle-aged frustration, dreams and reality, and cruel facts. He has begun to cooperate with directors like Zhang Yimou.
began to come into contact with more social works.
As for such a change, those who should feel the greatest sense of crisis are those big names who have the same box office strength as Shen Teng.
It is no exaggeration to say that catching up with the movie "Flying Life 2" in terms of box office results is a trivial matter.
But the casting plan revealed in this movie will make Shen Teng a time bomb in the film industry. When
might be left behind by Shen Teng is what Wu Jing, Huang Bo and others should really worry about right now.
But having said that, I don’t feel sorry for Shen Teng’s unwillingness to amuse the audience.
His performance in movies in the past two years has always made me think that he will become a better actor.
's absurd comedy actually hides his strength and potential where the audience can't see it, and now it's time to fully unleash it.
Finally, what do you think of Shen Teng’s career development?
Do you believe that Shen Teng can complete a big reversal and get rid of his identity as a comedy star and a variety show star?
has truly entered the mainstream circle and is competing for authoritative awards.
Try to get into the industry awards that powerful actors compete for?
