In the first half of this year, the 38-year-old Yang Mi became a "frequent" on hot searches. "Harbin 1944" and the movie "Nothing That Can't Be Solved by Hot Pot" were released, but this has also become Yang Mi's biggest "Mid-life crisis".
According to the latest news, "Nothing Can't Be Solved by Hot Pot" did not do well on May 1st. The box office was only close to 50 million after 4 days of release. The total box office is predicted to drop from the original 180 million to 80 million. about.
Some netizens analyzed that although the movie "Nothing Can't Be Solved by a Hot Pot" is a small-budget movie, 40 million was invested in it. If the box office does not exceed 100 million as predicted, it will lose money.
The current score of this movie on a certain platform is 6.4. In the comment area, except for the recognition of Yu Qian 's acting skills, almost all other reviews are negative.
In fact, this movie is of great significance as Yang Mi's "comeback" after many years of absence from the big screen. It directly determines her future status in the film industry. And now it seems that Yang Mi's future "movie road" I'm afraid it's less than ideal.
Even the film director Ding Sheng couldn't help but look sad during the live broadcast, crying and crying about the details behind the filming of the film, but it had little effect on the box office.
Looking into the "failure" of this movie, there are actually 4 reasons behind it.
One, the lead actor Yang Mi lacks box office appeal
As the lead actor of the movie, Yang Mi's "box office appeal" has a lot to do with the movie's box office, because the movie itself does not rely on the director or the script. traffic, so Yang Mi’s role is very important.
But it is obvious that although Yang Mi is a "top 85 flower" in the entertainment industry, she is mainly rooted in the TV series circle. Her achievements in the film circle are not outstanding, such as "Baby" and " Reverse Time Rescue " starring A movie with a rating of only four or five.
In addition, she hasn’t made a movie in a few years, let alone box office appeal. This can be seen from the fact that she can only play a supporting actress in " Jiang Yuan Nong ". Yang Mi is not considered a celebrity in the film industry. high.
2. Yang Mi’s poor promotion
Some netizens believe that the unsatisfactory box office of “What Can’t Be Solved by a Hot Pot” has something to do with Yang Mi’s “poor” promotion. Because the movie itself is a low-budget movie, the roadshow promotion of the starring actors is also very important.
However, Yang Mi only posted two updates on her official social platform to promote the movie, and rarely participated in road shows.
Compared with "Harbin 1944", which has been on a lot of hot searches, "Things That Can't Be Solved by a Hotpot" does seem to be much less popular.
Third, Yang Mi’s acting skills and appearance were both “broken”
Although the box office failure of “Nothing Can’t Be Solved by Hot Pot” cannot be entirely attributed to Yang Mi, as a starring role, she does bear a lot of responsibility.
During this period, Yang Mi, as an actor, received the greatest doubts from her acting skills to her status. Before the movie was released, Yang Mi's performance in "Harbin 1944" was unsatisfactory and had left many viewers with a "not good" image, which would also indirectly affect the audience's feelings about the movie.
Not only is Yang Mi's status attracting much attention now, her face is obviously slumped on the high-definition screen, which is embarrassing. Her acting skills and original lines are also being scrutinized. Her programmed acting skills and baby voice are embarrassing.
Li Shaohong once said that the shortcomings of Yang Mi's performance have now become the biggest "crisis" in Yang Mi's acting career.
Fourth, the script is not good
Of course, the script of this movie originally had "flaws", and it was a low-cost movie that was released in more than a month. This is one of the main reasons why the audience did not buy it.
Many netizens blame the movie for the "few movies scheduled", but in fact, the "few movies scheduled" is because the movie's response when it was screened was not good.
But all in all, the failure of this movie should actually have the greatest impact on Yang Mi. As he gets older, 38-year-old Yang Mi obviously has the idea of transformation. Whether it is "Harbin 1944" or "What Can't Be Solved by a Hot Pot", it can be seen that Yang Mi is bidding farewell to his comfort zone.
But now it also shows that it is not easy to get out of the comfort zone. Some netizens suggested that Yang Mi should work hard in the "ancient puppet circle" and strive to take on the "landing of ancient costumes".
But now, Yang Mi’s transformation journey may be even more difficult.
