Before entering the cinema: Wuer is good at making comic book adaptations? Can it be done?
After walking into the cinema: I think it’s simple, there are no fantasy films that Wu Ershan can’t handle.
According to data, although " under the alien " has only been online for the second day, its box office performance has exceeded 6 million. This kind of data performance is not comparable to last year's "Fengshen", but in the two-dimensional comic book movie The track has been perfected.
Judging from the content of the movie, the story of "Under the Stranger" is very fast-paced. In basically two hours, everything that happened before Zhang Chulan participated in the Stranger Competition in the original comic was clearly explained.
The key is that the conflicts foreshadowed in the early plot of the original comic are not actually intense, but the movie "Under the Stranger" has an intense feeling.
The main content of the movie weakens Feng Baobao’s force value, but maximizes Zhang Chulan’s skills. In the current plot, the small bosses are easily defeated by Zhang Chulan. As a cool movie with a secondary setting, "Under the Stranger" is quite qualified.
"Under the Stranger" is full of special effects, full of refreshing feeling, hearty and full of commercial popcorn feeling. Some clips in the movie even use animated special effects, giving it a more two-dimensional feel.
Of course, the reason why "Under the Stranger" can be released is not only because of Wu Ershan's blessing, or the influence of the IP of the original comic "Under the Stranger", but what really attracts passersby to the cinema. The creation of characters and actors.
After watching the whole movie, you will find that there are only three reasons for "Under the Stranger" to leave the circle.
The first point: The boss is the visual sense, Wang Jinsong’s white hair catches the eye
In the movie Wang Jinsong plays Feng Zhenghao in the original comic. He is a tolerant old fox. He has strong financial resources and full of ambition, but such a role The more straightforward it is, the less emotional it becomes.
Wang Jinsong’s sense of proportion is just right.
He has a majestic attitude, but he also has a friendly elder temperament. Feng Zhenghao in the original comic is more rugged, but Wang Jinsong's image is more dignified and noble.
In the picture, he is wearing a suit and has gray hair. He can hardly hide his age, but he still has the feeling of being old and getting stronger.
On the screen, Wang Jinsong will basically never prove himself on the appearance track, but in "Under the Stranger", he is really handsome to a new level, especially when he releases his powers, he is really attractive. eye.
In the current plot of the feature film, the character has been performed by Wang Jinsong with a hidden feeling.
The second point: calm and restrained, Qiao Zhenyu’s suit is too formal
Qiao Zhenyu in "Under the Stranger" played the role of Xu San. This character is a serious person and likes to do things according to the rules. In the original comic, he gives people It feels rather old-fashioned.
But Qiao Zhenyu's performance completely made Xu San a very attractive man. Looking at his appearance, he looks like a boyfriend in the establishment, and looking at his aura, he looks like a top mature man who talks and laughs happily.
When fighting with the villain, he clicks until the end, he is bold and restrained, and always has a faint smile on his face. He seems casual, but he knows everything and is sure of victory. The character image of
is really inseparable from Qiao Zhenyu's own conditions. Qiao Zhenyu's appearance is not outstanding, but his facial features are straight and his bones are three-dimensional. Together with his tall figure and slim-fitting suit, he has the charm of a mature man.
Of course, Qiao Zhenyu's acting skills in "Under the Stranger" are also very eye-catching.
There is a scene in the movie where Xu San is controlled by Xia He. Xu San, who has always been upright and serious, begins to blush and put on a look of infatuation. In this scene, the Xu San that the audience knows has completely transformed into After meeting another person, Qiao Zhenyu's performance without any baggage almost broke the audience's filter.
That is, Qiao Zhenyu’s appearance and figure stand up to it, otherwise this scene will really ruin the quality of a character.
The third point: slutty and coquettish, Naran’s figure is amazing
It can be seen that Wu Ershan really prefers Naran, whether it is compared to the original comic or the movie, Naran plays Xia He. There is a strong sense of presence.
In the second half of the movie, Feng Baobao, who has super strength, was even beaten on the hospital bed by Xia He. Feng Baobao, who was completely unable to fight back, was really weakened compared to Xia He, who was beautiful and had a lot of strength.
But I have to say that Naran’s performance as Xia He is indeed eye-catching.
As soon as Xia He appeared on the stage, she was dressed like a midnight girl. The bright pink shape, low-cut top and long legs were enough to make her nosebleed. And Xia He in the plot knew her body advantages so well that she even Every movement Yu Naran makes towards the camera is deliberately showing off her curves.
While maintaining her sexiness, Naran can still perform well in action scenes.
In terms of character setting, Xia He is charming and slutty. She relies on this method to control the lust of others, and she has a natural charm that makes people fascinated.
As a result, Xia He became synonymous with femininity in her interactions with men. Not only did she have a sexy and hot figure, but her eyes and smile at the corners of her mouth were stained with lust, making people unable to look away.
Of course, compared to the Naran in "Fengshen", the Naran in "Under the Stranger" obviously has a completely different style. Her charm in "Under the Stranger" is exposed, and she can't wait to see it. Everyone can see that Daji is foxy at heart. The difference between the two is that she is charming but knows it, and she is charming but not aware of it.
But obviously, Naran handles both roles very well.
The three characters created by the above three actors are the key to making "Under the Stranger" stand out from the entertainment industry.
But in fact, the success of a movie is inseparable from the shaping of all actors. Except for the three, Zhang Chulan, played by Hu Xianxu , is really exactly the same as the male protagonist in the comics. Feng Baobao, played by Li Wanda, has a beautiful face and action scenes. She is more beautiful, and her silly temperament is also quite eye-catching.
As for Feng Shaofeng , Narnaqi, Lancia and other actors with online appearance and image, they are also the strongest assists in the advancement of the main line.
To put it bluntly, Wu Ershan's ruthless vision in casting is inseparable from the roles in the movie. He used many familiar actors as well as many new ones, but without exception, these actors all fit the roles very well. From this, it can be seen that Wu Ershan actually respects the original comic.
Only with this kind of sincerity can we break the dimensional wall and make the live-action movie have the same eye-catching charm as the two-dimensional movie.
Unfortunately, there is a threshold for the second dimension. "Under the Stranger" is very successful, but it is very unlikely to break through the box office of " " or last year's "Feng Shen". The key is the performance of "Under the Stranger" The story is not over yet, and the audience really wants to see a sequel.
