Hui Yinghong and Liu Haocun's " Brilliant Her " was released for 4 days, with a box office of over 53 million. It performed well among domestic films in the period. However, the high box office also brought more controversy, and the starring Liu Haocun was put on the hot search.
However, this topic about Liu Haocun's acting skills feels a bit like a hot search bought by the promoter, who asked the marketing account to write some good reviews, thereby triggering discussions and promoting the movie. This is understandable. After all, looking at the cast of the movie, Liu Haocun is an actor with both acting skills and popularity. Naturally, the film crew will take advantage of this to promote the movie.
But the problem is that, looking at the audience's evaluation, not only Liu Haocun's performance is controversial, but even Hui Yinghong, who is undisputedly powerful, has expressed doubts in this movie.
Let’s first look at the content under the hot search topic “Liu Haocun’s acting skills”. The leading marketing account naturally spared no effort in praising her, saying that she was “very impressed by her acting skills” and constantly quoted Zhang Yimou’s saying “Haocun is suitable for eating” This bowl of rice".
But this is not the case on Douban. The five hot reviews with a lot of likes on the homepage are all one-star negative reviews.
's first comment denounced the movie in all aspects, saying that "Brilliant Her" was a "disaster remake" and said that Liu Haocun "acted poorly". Even Hui Yinghong was brought to the same level by her. The slap scene made the audience Laugh out loud.
's second comment was sincere and sincere. He regretted that "Hui Yinghong's performance has been at a low point for several years. It is too contrived and deliberate." He then said that Liu Haocun couldn't handle her scenes. She was just a dead tree and too dull. surface.
There are also many comments criticizing Liu Haocun's acting. For example, one high praise comment wrote, "Can you let me see any other emotions besides crying? She is just dumbfounded... Her eyes are hollow and boring. She really has this feeling." Is the character in the character?"
To be fair, the polarization of word-of-mouth for "Brilliant Her" is expected. Whether it is a good review or a negative review, it is correct. Each review is based on subjective feelings. There are a lot of criticisms of Liu Haocun's acting skills. doubts, it is definitely not black for the sake of being black.
The fundamental reason for the polarization of reviews is that "Brilliant Her" failed to make all viewers empathize with the characters. To put it simply, it is the difference between watching and not seeing it.
The audience who watched it will not care whether the movie is a remake, what the original Korean version is like, or whether there are any problems or flaws in the actors' performance. Their emotions will follow the characters as the plot progresses, and they will cry and laugh with the characters. I have watched it The movie will bring a great sense of inner comfort and satisfaction, and this group of viewers will not hesitate to give positive reviews because they were indeed moved by the movie.
But another part of the rational audience will always stand on the sidelines and look at the movie. Without being emotionally invested and gaining resonance, they will continue to find faults with the movie, such as insufficient localization, too much like Korean movies, poor acting skills, and poor story. Not smooth, too sensational...
It is undeniable that these problems exist in movies, including the acting skills of Hui Yinghong and Liu Haocun. Compared with other previous movies, it goes without saying that it is a breakthrough, and it cannot even be said to be at a high level.
This also reflects a problem. A movie is a collective creation, and so is the performance of the actors. Did Liu Haocun act well in this movie? Personally, I don't think it's bad, but it's definitely not good. I'll give it a pass mark at most. But is this a problem with Liu Haocun himself? Yes and no.
Indeed, Liu Haocun’s spirituality and hard work cannot be felt in this movie. It is empty, boring, and cannot find any room for interpretation. She herself couldn't empathize with the character, and the audience certainly couldn't.
But Liu Haocun cannot be entirely blamed. This is unfair. Imagine an extreme example. If Liu Haocun were to play a three- or four-year-old child, and there was only a single scene in the whole movie, the content was about her parents feeding her. Such a work would definitely not be watched. Liu Haocun's performance would definitely make people laugh. So embarrassed that I dug my toes out of the castle.
takes this extreme example to prove that the quality of the script, the director's ability to communicate with the actors, the director's requirements for performance quality (whether it's almost passable or 20 times in a scene), the actor's fit for the role, etc., will all be serious. It affects the actor's shaping of the character. Tony Leung A good actor has also acted in a bad movie like "European Raiders"! What about Liu Haocun?
Therefore, if you think "Brilliant Her" is not good to watch, you can criticize, you can give advice to the director, and you can point out Liu Haocun's shortcomings, but you should not erase her acting skills or deny all her works. If this one is not good, it does not mean that it will not work in the future. No, I believe Liu Haocun will still contribute outstanding acting skills if he encounters a good script, a good director, and a suitable role.
As for "Brilliant Her", the current situation is more like the "Pony Crossing the River" in the textbooks when I was a child. Hearing is false and seeing is believing. As long as you don't spend too high a ticket price, you won't lose money by watching this movie.
